Favorite game quotes?

[Kekvit Irae]

Since we have a cutscene thread, I thought it would be appropriate for a favorite gaming quotes thread. They can be iconic, zany, or just plain memorable.

My picks:

"War. War never changes."
-Fallout series

"You're Winner!"
-Big Rigs (best game EVAR)

"You ok, lady?"
-The Ring

"You spoony bard!"
-Final Fantasy IV

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

"Look, Mother... Sisters... he-he-he... I'm peeing... peeing..."
-Sagara Family

[pevergreen]

"I'm not that kind of Orc!" - Warcraft 2

"To the east...Always...to the east." - Diablo 2

I shall refrain from posting anymore from those series, so...I'm out for a while until I remember older games anyway.

[CountArach]

"I fight for my friends"

Soul Calibur

[pevergreen]

"I shall earn the favour of the gods, through the blood of the weaklings" - Warhammer: Mark of Chaos.
"I feed on the blood of the innocent" - Dawn of War (I think)

[Quirinus]

"SANITY is for the weak!" -- Chaos unit (not sure which), Dawn of War

"Is it just me, or are the Rodians kinda creepy?" -- random merc, Jedi Academy

"I heard that thieves broke into the Arcane University, the Imperial Legion Compound and the Temple all on the same night! waitaminuteletmedothatoneagain " -- random Altmer woman, TES: Oblivion

"I ran into some mudcrabs the other day...." -- every third NPC, TES: Oblivion



Just some that immediately popped to mind. I remember being quite amused by that soldier who got possessed in Hellgate: London as well, when he gets possessed by the mad demon thing in midsentence. Something along the lines of "Ooh, I feel like RAPING THE SOULS OF THE ASHES OF CHILDREN" or something in the same vein. Don't have the game anymore, and can't find it on YouTube, anyone remember it?

[Fragony]

Few good ones,

Every conversation in No One Lives Forever, especially the assumed correlation between criminal behaviour and beer consumption.

It's time to kick *peep* and chew bubble gum, and I'm all out of gum. -Duke Nuke'em

I am taking it like a gnat in a hailstorm! -Silent Storm (hilarious game)

[Togakure]

"Less talking, more raiding!" - Sea Raiders, Mount and Blade

"To this day, his memory is honored, and his courage, his shrewdness, and his skill in battle--are legend." - Shogun Total War

"NOT EVEN DEATH CAN SAVE YOU FROM ME" - Diablo, Diablo II

"ENOUGH! I shall take your position into consideration ... [splat]
Well ... it seems your terms are unacceptable." - Baal, Diablo II, LoD

[Kekvit Irae]

Do I need to repeat myself? Swearing in the Arena is one step closer to getting hit with a banhammer.

[Martok]

"They ran away! Are they afraid of *us*??!" -- Ferengi non-combatant ship commander, Birth of the Federation

I just love how startled he always sounds.


I also love that line from MTW where Sean Pwertee says something about the enemy general being killed in battle, but I forget how it goes now.

EDIT: Found it: "The enemy general is dead, a black heart gone to his deserved grave!"

[Pannonian]

Man's unfailing capacity to believe what he prefers to be true rather than what the evidence shows to be likely and possible has always astounded me. We long for a caring Universe which will save us from our childish mistakes, and in the face of mountains of evidence to the contrary we will pin all our hopes on the slimmest of doubts. God has not been proven not to exist, therefore he must exist.
* Academician Prokhor Zakharov

Remember, genes are NOT blueprints. This means you can't, for example, insert "the genes for an elephant's trunk" into a giraffe and get a giraffe with a trunk. There are no genes for trunks. What you CAN do with genes is chemistry, since DNA codes for chemicals. For instance, we can in theory splice the native plants' talent for nitrogen fixation into a terran plant.
* Academician Prokhor Zakharov, "Nonlinear Genetics"

I loved my chosen. How then to face the day when she left me? So I took from her body a single cell, perhaps to love her again.
* Commissioner Pravin Lal, "Time of Bereavement"

Einstein would turn over in his grave. Not only does God play dice, the dice are loaded.
* Chairman Sheng-ji Yang

Richard Baxton piloted his Recon Rover into a fungal vortex and held off four waves of mind worms, saving an entire colony. We immediately purchased his identity manifests and repackaged him into the Recon Rover Rick character with a multi-tiered media campaign: televids, touchbooks, holos, psi-tours-- the works. People need heroes. They don't need to know how he died clawing his eyes out, screaming for mercy. The real story would just hurt sales, and dampen the spirits of our customers.
* Morgan Stellartots Keynote Speech, "Mythology for Profit"

We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?
* Project PYRRHO, Specimen 46, Vat 7 (Subject termination advised)

From Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri.

[Daimon]

Cohen, Bioshock

"I want to take the ears off, but I can't. I hop, and when I hop, I never get off the ground. It's my curse, my eternal curse! I want to take the ears off but I can't! It's my curse! It's my ******* curse! I want to take the ears off! Please! Take them off! Please!"

[CountArach]

I just remembered another one. The entire conversation about Batman vs Superman in Brothers in Arms 1

[Ignoramus]

"Plebs are needed!"

Caesar II

[Mikeus Caesar]

"From the Nation of Hollywood to the Empire State, newsfilm from around the world on your neighbourhood screen today, delivered via high-speed airmail, this is Aero-tone News!"

And thus begins Crimson Skies, the best game ever.

[Decker]

"Who the **** is Shakespeare?"
- Killzone (the guy with the BIG gun)

Another HK 47 quote:

HK: Translation: 98% probability that the members of the minature organic's tribe are being held by the Sand People, master. Doubtless he wishes assistance.
You: What about the other 2%?
HK: Translation: 2% probability that the minature organic is simply looking for trouble and needs to be blasted. That may be wishful thinking on my part, master.

Ben: You know what might look better on your nose?
Quohog: What?
Ben: [grabs Quohog's nose ring and slams him down on to the bar] THE BAR.

The past is a puzzle, like a broken mirror. As you piece it together, you cut yourself, your image keeps shifting. And you change with it. It could destroy you, drive you mad. It could set you free.

The past is a gaping hole. You try to run from it, but the more you run, the deeper, more terrible it grows behind you, its edges yawning at your heels. Your only chance is to turn around and face it. But it's like looking down into the grave of your love, or kissing the mouth of a gun, a bullet trembling in its dark nest, ready to blow your head off. - Max Payne, Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne

"One Vision, One Purpose!" - Kane
"Peace through Power!" - Kane

[Abokasee]

"I need mana" - Virtually every character in a MMO/RPG when they run out of mana
