Annoying Video Game Quotes Forever Etched into your Memory

[dalek sec]

"Ada wait!"

Leon pretty much shouting that every single bloody time Ada Wong rushes off to do something in Resident Evil 2. I don't know why but for some reason that line just annoys me as I play the game. It's not a deal breaker or anything, just erks me for some reason. D:

I can't think of a specifically annoying line, but Fallout 3 and New Vega's radio hosts and they're ridiculous tendency to repeat the same 2 lines, news reports, and songs over and over before saying anything new. At least you can turn those radios off, but for one that you can't avoid, I'd pick Batman: Arkham Asylum and the Joker's outdoor PA lines. As good as they are, Joker has the tendency to repeat the same 2 or 3 over and over and over, and because of all the collectables on the outdoors and having to pass through many times, you have no choice but to listen to them. Here's the one in particular that usually gets stuck in my head for a while:

"Joker here! I'd just like to remind all new residents of Joker Asylum that they are expected to follow one simple rule, the punishment for not following the rule is death. Do you know the best thing about the rule? It's a secret! Hee! hee! hee! hee! ha! ha! ha! haaaaa!!!"

Yeah, and there's another scene in the chapel where Stauf is about to sacrifice a baby and calls on one of the guests to do it. Brian Dutton, I think. And the revelation that the dolls Stauf makes have the souls of children in them... like the one that killed the baby...? Okay, that's children being forced to kill other children... Blaugh.

They were also in the video you posted, poor old Mrs Knox was completely useless. Did you ever get around to playing The 11th Hour at all? It didn't quite live up to the original game, IMO. (Though it certainly had it's moments.)

Yes, I did. And the ending with the "No-tell Motel" was freaky, with the girl turning into Stauf (or at least, his head on her body, which is equally freaky).

That was a total mindscrew, especially when completing that one late at night. Though picking the Robin ending wasn't half a player punch. You go to all that effort to save her and what do you get for a trouble? A knife in back.

Yup. And on TV, yet no less! Gah! The only way to win was to choose the lady in the wheelchair. Although, to be honest, I knew Slutty!Chick was the wrong one to pick. I picked Robin as my first "Choice". I felt as stabbed in the back as the main character was...

"You have faced many challenges! Pity they were all in vain! Soon your people will kneel to my lord!"

"My lord... will be the end of you all..."

Vazruden wasn't the problem, it was Nazan. That fucking dragon, seriously. Going up against it in EPL quest gear when nobody knew what to expect.

"Can it wait for a bit? I'm in the middle of some calibrations" - Mass Effect 2

THIS. SO MUCH THIS!

Ugh...Garrus is one of my favourite characters from the series, and I grumbled EVERY. FREAKIN. TIME he did that little head turn thing, knowing that a "Can it wait for a bit? I'm in the middle of some calibrations" was coming. It got to the point where I wished Shepard would just interrupt him and go "yeah, yeah, calibrations. I know, have fun.".

When I got to the end and the main gun was about to fire, I actually said out loud "If this shot doesn't !@#$ING kill those guys after all those damn calibrations, I will personally kick your ass out the airlock, Garrus."

I mean, at least the equally interesting Mordin would have a few "not now, I'm busy" responses to offer. And most of them were hilarious.

EDIT:

From Dr. Eggman in Shadow the Hedgehog:
"You know what they say, the more, the merrier!"

YOU SPOONY BARD, why did you have to remind me of that one?! *clutches head* That was the most annoying line in the game for the sheer amount of times it got SPAMMED in that boss fight. At least the other eggman battles had significantly shorter lines that were less annoying when spammed. (EG: "LIGHTS OUT!")

In Halo: Reach, while trying to get the "If They Came to Hear Me Beg" achievement -

"Stay low. Let me draw the heat. Just deliver that package."

^This

Also:
Mass Effect - "ENEMIES EVERYWHERE!!!!!"
And whenever I head it, I see a random screenshot from a memory and the screen is shaking like crazy. Gives me a headache.

Also Circus of Values from Bioshock. I want to obliterate every machine... although that might have to do with the fact I always have max ammo and max money.

Marie was total schmuck bait as they say in the land of TV Tropes. Robin on the other hand was actually my second choice, but there was just something about what Samantha (the girl in the TV) was saying that just somehow clicked.

Even though I survived Stauf's machinations, I still had to complete the game again because I felt like such a dirtbag for leaving Robin high and dry.

There are a lot of 'em, many of which are from Oblivion and Fallout ...

But, I've got to go with, HEY LISTEN

[Zhadramekel]

"Be brave, be the bravest ever" not so annoying on its own but after being in about 10 flashbacks... yeah... it is

 

[mcdain]

Anything uttered by Vanille during a battle in FF13. Especially the grunting.

 

[GameChanger]

"Attention, we have hostiles in the sector!"

Just fucking cause.

The worst part is that they keep sending weak helicopters at your powerful missile-boasting terror of the sky so you'll eventually need to hijack the shitty things.

The orks constant yelling of SPACE MARINES in (you guessed it) Space Marine

Its like the game thinks that we keep forgetting we are playing as some 7ft tall juggernaught and feels the need to remind us.

I saved just before the last puzzle, but still.

What's funny is, despite the crappy acting, I still found the 7th Guest scarier than 11th Hour. Stauf seems somewhat more... defanged in the second game. His voiceovers didn't get on my nerves nearly as much. Although the "FEELING... LONELY?!" section being played at 2 AM might have had something to do with how scary I found the first game over the second...

I know what you mean about the ropey acting still somehow managing to scare you. I seen a film called Necronomicron with some seriously cheesy effects and acting and still managed to scare me.

Though it may have also had something to do with the fact that not only was I watching it at a silly time, but it was the fisrt time I had seen the idea of living through being made a quadruplegic. That scared me far more than someone who gets killed outright. But I guess that's more psychological horror when I think of it.

Try "Ringu" some time if you really want to be brain-screwed. No blood, no gore... all psychological horror. ::whimper:: "The Ring" wasn't nearly as bad.

Ha ha, way ahead of you on that one. I remember watching it as part of Channel 4's Extreme Asia season. That kept me awake for a while, so much so - I ended up finging out exactly what an Onryō was about a week later. (In fact, the whole season piqued my interest in Japanese culture in general.)
