Favorite Quotes from Video Games
 

They're are so, so many of good quotes that have been used in video games, and this thread is here to list all of the best ones.

"The Song... the Song is I...uh...
Mirror, mirror on the wall, show me, define me!
I am the infinite telomerase! I am not an anti-existence! I am the perfect chain!"
- Albedo, from XenoSaga I (in reference to the Song of Nephilim)

"Master, sir, did you just see my MAD SKILLZ!?"
- Hammer, from Xenogears

"Shut up! Sit your ass down in that chair and drink your goddamn TEA! Arggggggh! DAMN, I'm pissed!"
- Cid, from Final Fantasy VII

"Your face, your ass... What's the difference"
- Duke Nukem

There are several more that I simply cannot remember right now. Anywho, what are y'all favorite quotes from video games?

Oh god what was that one from Another Code? I think they fixed it in the US release, Trace Memory or whatever. It goes something like this.

- The picture shows a man in a black sweater stands next to an old man -
Ashley: "Do you know that man?"
D: =0!!!!!!!
D: That is...
D: THAT IS THE MANIN THE BLACK SWEATER

I just lost it.

"Succeed or fail, the outcome is the same. What is written in the timeline cannot be changed."
"Thanks for the advice."

I was on the Test team for PoP: Warrior Within and I've worked on it for months. After this project, even today, I say it to myself once in a while. Aaargh.

One of my favorites is from the Computer AI Morpheous prototype in Deus Ex after getting into a conversation with him about how AIs will eventually replace gods and deities and become the "rulers" of the human race:

"You will soon have your God, and you will make it with your own hands."

It's similar to a line from Xenogears. Appropriately, System Shock 2 also had it's fair share of memorable quotes:


Oh a less serious note, Duke's lines from Duke Nukem 3d are always fun.

"Shake it, baby"

As was recently mentioned:

"If God does not exist in this world, then I will create God with my own hands!" - Krelian

Xenogears rocks too damn hard.

Recently Phoenix Wright made me laugh out loud.

-Manella
Hey, do j00 do a lot of
"cosplay," coz that
costume r0x0rz!... *drool*

-Maya
Rocksores!? Wh-wh-what...
Hey! You're drooling!

Best dialouge in a while!

meh, quotes in videogames usually suck, as do all quotes, unless they're funny. I remember laughing at this funny as hell quote on Chrono Cross that these enemies you fight give you, they start introducing themselves as i they're on a talk show or one of them 'hook up' sites o.o and always say their favourite attack. One of them made me laugh though, they said...

"I'm 19 years old, and I like to suck




...blood."

...With the suck part colored green. Yeah, pretty lame and unorthadox x.x But it caught me off guard so I laughed pretty hard.

"I'm taking you all down bitches!!!!" - CJ in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

xman25

Monkey Island. All of them. Start to finish. Conversation fucking over.

Also, pretty much every quote you've listed makes you sound like whiny bitches, with the exception of a few XG quotes and the Deus one because it was cool. Other than that, fuck off and die.

"Don't blame me, blame yourself or God."
-Delita, Final Fantasy Tactics.

Still probably my most favorite quote from any game.

Most of my favourite VG quotes are in FFVIII, and most of them are uttered by Squall. In addition to the two below, I also liked his speech when the Garden was under attack, and his speech to the mayour of Fisherman Horizon.

"Cafeteria team, collect all the hot dogs and store everything in the
secret shelter. Don't leave anything for the enemy."

"(Right and wrong are not what separate us and our enemies. It's
our different standpoints, our perspectives that separate us.) (Both
sides blame one another. There's no good or bad side. Just 2 sides
holding different views.)"

Below are some others from other people. Plus, anything Laguna says is funny.

Kiros: Yeah, but you cut a pretty pitiful figure up there. I'd say
you're about a -3 on the manliness scale.

Wedge: Major Biggs! There has been a report of a monster-shaped shadow
on top of the tower. Major Biggs!

I'm not going to bother listing all of my faves, 'cause it'd just take too long.

Other games with great lines include the Monkey Island series and Sam and Max Hit The Road, such as this one:

Sam: "This is Conroy's first guitar. It says here that he practiced dilligently for two weeks, then gave up and hired a back-up band."
Max: "That story warms the cockles of my heart."
Sam: "So do car crashes."

Sam: "Look. A seventy million year old statue with no graffiti."
Max: "I thought it was missing something. Where's the crayons?"

This quote below is from the comic, but oh well!

Sam: "Let's get packed, Max. Make sure you sew tags on all your underwear."
Max: "But I don't--"
Sam: "Oh yeah. Me neither."

Sup Yamamanama.
 

Tales of Phantasia:

In reference to Arche:

"Mint has that quiet elegance about her, but I bet Arche fucks like a tiger."

-Klarth

Still to this day, I must have a screen capture of this.

FFVI quotes for the win. Damn, I really should give this game another whirl, and this time hopefully save Mr. Ninja.

I always thought Starcraft (Brood War included) had some good lines.

"At this point: I'm pretty much the Queen Bitch of the Universe." -- Kerrigan

The dialogue between Zeratul and Samir Duran in the bonus level "Dark Origin" was awesome, too. I'd paste it in here if I could find it online. :/ I'm sure it's around somewhere, I just can't find it.

"This is Snake. Colonel, can you hear me?" - Solid Snake in MGS. Hands down!

My friend and i were trying to play through Prince of Persia: Sands of Time in one night, and we came upon the part where that bitch woman instructs you to meet her in the baths.

Prince: "'Meet me in the baths?' of course i know where those are, i'll just ask the first sand person i find.

'excuse me, could you direct me to the bath house?'
'why yes of course, i used to be a bath attendant back when i was alive'

We both laughed hard when he said that. Probably because it was about 4:00 in the morning, but whatever, still my favourite line from a video game.

Algus: Animals have no God!!

Dragon Quest 7 had a few amusing quips in it, mainly because the translators were allowed a few liberties with the script. There's a lot of noticable embellishments to the original script, such as this:

Aira:
"That was the Wind Spirit? More like a tornado!
Did I say tornado? I meant slut."

There was also one segment where one of the translators tried to see just how many Army of Darkness quotes he could reasonably cram in. Nothing like rounding the corner and finding a pink armor swordsman going "Who wants some? Huh? Who wants a little?"

I personally love this one...

"You spoony bard!!!" - Tellah says to Edward while beating him over the head with a wooden staff - FFIV

What the hell is spoony?!

The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening.
"You've got the Magic Rod! Now you can burn things! Burn it! Burn, baby burn!"

This Zelda game has a few equally crazy quotes.

What? They really said that? God, I haven't played that game for faaaar to long time:( It's honestly the best Zelda game I've ever played.

Sorry Spatula but DeJap pretty much totally made that part up. Play the GBA version for the real translation or better yet, learn Japanese.

And SketchtheArtist reminded me of PoP: Sands of Time. EVERY QUOTE FROM THE PRINCE BITCHING ABOUT FARAH IS THE BEST. One of them spirals off into a huge machoist, anti women diatribe and I lolled.

I can never remember the exact words of quotes, even if they are my favourites:

"That's why the higher-ups call the enemy things like like swine and dogs. They know they're human but they don't want you to think that you're killing humans." -guy in Buckeye Station, Wild Arms 5

"Good and evil are only labels. Could you label the sides in this war with good and evil? Both sides were fighting towards the exact same goal, but they just used different methods to try and achieve that goal." -various people and various times, Wild Arms 5

"I quit this bitch job because I get treated like a bitch!" -Cipriani, Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories

"Your back feels so nice and warm, Byuu!" -Sendak, Bahamut Lagoon

My favorite is Kid from Chrono Cross:
"I'll kick your arse so hard that it's going to kiss the moon."

Jelanda from Valkyrie Profile:
"A 1000 deaths will not be enough for you."

Oh shit, how could I forget?

"I was a slave to circumstance"

-Belenus, Valkyrie Profile.

Best excuse ever.

So why were you late? ya know, I was a slave to circumstances and all.

Despite that was DeJap's fan-translating efforts, I still found that absolutely hilarious.

"We need to fix your brain" (something like that)
"will you help me?"
"I am not a brain doctor, im a dentist" :sucks out brain:
-Psyhco doctor in Psychonouts

"The princess is in another castle mario!"
-from mario :S

Oh yeah, Psychonauts! That reminds me:

"You can't handle the milk" -The Milkman...anyone else in the Milkman Conspiracy world is hilarious as well, but that's the defining quote.

Psychonauts somehow reminded me of one from Grim Fandango I thought was pretty amusing.

(While chasing away some pigeons, brandishing a funny-shaped balloon)
"Run, you pigeons! It's Robert Frost!" - Manny Calavera

Well, pretty much anything from Earthbound, but if I am to pick any....

"edisnooM ot emocleW"

Then some FF6 for good measure...

Kefka quotes:

"I hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate you!"

"Nothing can beat the music of hundreds of voices screaming in unison!"

"I will destroy everything! I will create a monument to non-existence!"

"Ahem. There's SAND on my boots "

Other misc. FFVI:

"Leave us. The dog eats strangers..."

"Mr. Thou! Mr. Thou!"

- WraithTwo -

Some random favorites:

"I'm more serious than a cockroach running for its life!" - Joe Chin, UmJammer Lammy

"Like those bloody cats...such a pain in the arse." - Gregg, Conker's Bad Fur Day

"What's with the V-Watch on your wrist, man? What, you think you're some kinda MEGAMAN or somethin'?" - Hulk Davidson, Viewtiful Joe

One of my personal favorites:

Grandia II

I'm sorry, that's not vague enought for me. Could you be a little less specific?

-Ryudo


Ryudo has some AWESOME lines in that game.

By far the best:

"Red Wizard needs food badly!" -- Gauntlet Legends

"The legend will never die." - Soul Calibur

Can't believe this wasn't said earlier.

My god, Grim Fandango had some of the best lines. Like walking past Eva while you have the balloon animal in your inventory and you let out that loud squeek.

Eva: "What is that awful squeeking sound you're making?"

Manny: "New shoes."


And the purple cyclops guy, after you jam up the mail tubing machine with packaging fluid.

Manny: (in mock shock) "Who would do such a thing?!"

Cyclops: "It's those punks in the mail room! They think this baby's going to put them out of a job! And they're right."


The green guy sleeping by the wine cellar elevator was great too.

*Manny tries to walk past Green*
Green: (wakes up) "Hey! I'm trying to sleep here!"

Manny: "Could you take me down?"

Green: "Oh yeeah, I could take you down alright. But.. no. I'd get in trouble for hitting customers."

Manny: "... No, down in the elevator. I wanna go down in the elevator."

Green: "Hm, yeah, they wouldn't see me hit you in there.."

Manny: "... Just open the door, will you."

Green: "Then they'd really see us fighting!"

I think it was from Final Fantasy 1. It was released around the time The Legend of Zelda was raiding every kid's house...

FFI: "R.I.P. Here lies Link"

Also:
"MAY THE RATS EAT YOUR EYES! I AM NOW LOST TO YOUR CAUSE!! THE DARKNESS COMES!!! AND IT WILL DAMN US ALL!!!!" (Maximillian Roivas, Eternal Darkness GCN)

"Hold on to your pants and don't piss in em!" --FF7's Cid

"TCELES B HSUP" --FF1's Talking Brooms

"STOP! You've violated the law! Your stolen goods are now forfeit. Either pay the fine, or go to jail." (Resists arrest) "Then pay with your blood!" --Oblivion's City Guards

And what is possibly the most out-of-character quote ever: "You got whacked cuz you're weak." --Chrono Trigger's Magus

That doesn't matter, it's still funny as hell. I laughed so hard the first time I played through that part.

Earthbound:

"You guys can't envision the final collapse of capitalism? Incredible!"

This quote took place in some yuppie intellectual club in town right before you get the little ninja guy.

"Crush the old order and create a new society huhuhueuhehehehhh" - Red, Elevator Action Returns

"...."
-Any japanese RPG

Chrono Cross:

"There are two kinds of people in this world. The sinners who are judged and the victims who do the judging." - Dragon God

FFVI:

"The best thing in life is being free of obligation. Otherwise you lose your ability to gamble." - Setzer

Tactics Ogre:

"People don't complain because they are weak. They choose to be weak so they can complain." - Lans Tartare

"Maybe i should get another..."
"Don't you guys know that blackmail is waaaay uncool?"
-ryo hazuki from Shenmue

"you're sukiyaki!"
-Announcer from DDR 4th

"you have intrest on your intrest my dearie!"
-loathe from The Misadventures of Tron Bonne

"You're pretty mature than i thought!"
-the ant in Parappa the Rapper 2

"You should be banned from every game"
-i forgot where it was in Um Jammer Lammy

"This is impossible from the point of cultural anthropology"
-Yuji from Gotcha Force

"it appears i have made an error"
-Juno from megaman legends

"by the way Puma, since when exactly have you been living at my place?"
-U-1 from gitaroo man

Steroid from Jagged Alliance 2:
"My skin is punctured and leaking!"

"Yo buddy, you still alive?"

Ace Combat Zero a gogo baby!

Pretty much anything from Katamari Damacy. For example:

King of All Cosmos: This sky is not pretty at all. It's rough and masculine. Possibly sweaty.

Bowling Alley - a place where people have fun rolling a ball. Isn't rolling balls fun?

Dung Beetle - rolls cow dung and makes it bigger. We feel a little rivalry here.

Salmon - swims all the way back to the river from the ocean. Then people eat it

Checkbook - people either smile or cry when they read this. It must be a very good novel.

Soccer Player - professional at playing with balls. This must be a very valuable Earthling skill, considering his salary.

No matter how many inspirational, bad-ass, funny, or oddly memorable quotes out there, there will always be one line that I'll always treasure above all others.



:edgarrock:

And here's another!

"You smell of Fink-Rats."
"I HATH FURY!!!"
(Fawful, Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga)

So many memorable quotes from that game. I have such a shit memory.

Elder God: What do you profit from this defiance?
Raziel: There's some grim satisfaction in infuriating you.
- Legacy of Kain: Defiance

"Get thee gone, darkness!!!" Ashley Riot, Vagrant Story

"METAL GEAR!!?" Solid Snake, MGS series

So it seems. It's "I have fury".

I would have posted the screenshots, but there are more than one, as it's actually more like a very amusing conversation rather than a line. Therefore, I'll just put up the best bits.

Lukan: "Yes, don't you think? My two vehementuous companions gave it to me. Witless, you see! Without humor! Without laughs! My irascibanality is unmatched."
Me: "Yes. You are truly without wits, Lukan."
Lukan: "Thank you so much. I can almost forgive your churlinity with comments like that.
Me: "You're vocabularity...Good god! Now I'M doing it..."
Lukan: "It is not uncommon that my eloquentology rubs off on those around me...oralization like my own is almost preterlateral in its uniquity."

Then, after discovering that my character had sided with "the enemy,"

Lukan: "There might have been, if I didn't already know you were in collision with the constable. I think you'd better leave now, or my colleagues will send you into the river tied to the heavy end of a millstone..."
Me: "Ugggh...we're in COLLUSION, you blithering idiot."

Arcanum goodness.

(From under a box sitting quietly out of the fray)

"I'm on reconnaissance duty." - Solid Snake, Super Smash Bros. Brawl preview at E3.

"Everyone, forget about me... quickly..."
Maya from Persona II: Innocent Sin

Usually the main character would say "Dont forget about me" but she mentioned that one instead during her death. My tear busted out in that scene.

From Castlevania: Symphony of the Night:
Richter: "Your words are as empty as your soul! Mankind ill needs a savior such as you."
Dracula: "What is a man, but a miserable little pile of secrets? But enough talk, have at you!"
While that was impressive as an intro, what was Richter babbling about?

Mega Man 7 - The ending:
Mega Man: "I... am... more... than... a... Robot!! Die Wily!!"
Huh, didn't see that coming.

Super Mario RPG:
Frogfucius: Mallow, my boy, I've kept this from you until now,but you're... Not a tadpole!!!
Everybody: Say WHAT???
Shock!!

"I'd like to chicken out now!"

One of your camper friends in Pyschonauts. If you're looking for a game with 100 funny lines, give it a shot.

aces

FFIX: "Ooh, soft." - Zidane

As much as I usually like the funny quotes, one line always stands out in my mind.


"Monsters? They looked like monsters to you? "
From Silent Hill 3 Vincent talking to Heather

The lines from Disgaea just popped into my head:
"Nin-nin-nin! I'm a ninja!" -Flonne
"I'm here to assassinate King Krichevskoy!" -Flonne
"But that's my favourite word!" (referring to "Love" in the Maderas chapter) -Flonne
