All these points of data make a beautiful line,
Now we're out of beta, we're releasing on time!
Now I'm glad I got burned,
Think of all the things we learned,
For the people who are still alive.

My favorite serious dialogue is from KOTOR 2. Can't remember the exact words, but its after you have been evil and killed all the council on the different worlds. She comes in and just kicks shit out of you with words, then lightning. Really felt sorry for my character at that point.

Metal Gear Solid

Gray Fox: "Snake, we're not tools of the government or anyone else. Fighting was the only thing... the only thing I was good at. But at least I always fought for what I believed in."

 

[laikenf]

- Dassan: "Katarn? the legendary Kyle Katarn? you look no more than like a bantha herder..."

Kyle Katarn: "and you look like an overgrown monitor lizard so I guess looks don't count much..."

Star Wars Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast.- One of my alltime favorite games.

Psychonauts: [http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Psychonauts]
Dogen: You're so lucky, you get to go home soon.
Razputin: Home? Back there I was just like you were, Dogen--punished by my own family, for having powers I never asked for. But here, I have a chance to be something, to make a difference. They may come for me, Dogen, but they'll be expecting Raz: the boy. But what they'll find--what they don't expect--is Raz: the Psychonaut!
Dogen: And- and then you'll make their heads explode?
Razputin: No! Do you do that?
Dogen: No. Well... once, kinda.

Heh, in that case a better quote is from when he thinks he's talking to squirrels:

- "No! I could never... kill everyone... Don't listen to the squirrels, they lie."

I also liked the "See you in hell" quip from Raz when he smacks around a squirrel. Not so much the sentence as how it's said, with a sort of cheerful sadness... hard to explain if you haven't already heard it ~~

But nothing, I mean nothing, can beat the script from Star Control 2. Practically everything is pure genious.

Zelnic (player): Now that we're allies it's customary for you to give us resources.
Spathi pilot: As you wish! Our waste recycling unit is at your disposal. In there you will find methane gas and some interesting organic compounds. Feel free to take all you like!

Go play it if you haven't already. It's an adventure-rgp-asteroids-shooter kinda thing. With the best (and funniest) script ever.

-awkward pause-
BlueTie Alien: "I think you've been hanging around the machine too long."
Alien: "Yeah... too long,"
-another awkward pause-
BlueTie Alien: "I think I need a new partner,"
Alien: "Yeah... new partner. See ya.

Yeah, that was a great game, although I never finished it because I lost the code : /

HK-47 - "Statement: My restraining bolt will be deactivated when you take possession of me. Am I to accompany you now? Shall I kill something for you?"

PC - "Kill something for me?"

HK-47 - "Answer: Indeed, I am most eager to engage in some unadulterated violence. At your command, of course, master."

 

[yonsito]

From Psychonauts:
Little guy with the tin foil hat (after making the squirrels explode): "They lied! And then they ... they ... they left."
Kid who is playing hide-and-seek: "I'm hunting the ultimate predator: Man."

And so many more. Also pretty much every line from Sam & Max.
Very entertaining thread!

BioShock

"I am Andrew Ryan and I'm here to ask you a question"
Is a man not intitled to the sweat of his brow? No, says the man in Washington, it belongs to the poor. No says the man in the Vatican, it belongs to God. No says the man in Moscow, it belongs to everyone. I rejected those answers. Instead, I chose something different. I chose the impossible. I chose....Rapture.

Charnel, god of death: "What is life - without strife?"
James, god of earth: "Peaceful. And that's not bad in my book."
Charnel, god of death: "I didn't know you could read?"
Eldred (narrating): "Hearing their petty squabbles......"

Charnel, god of death: "What is life - without strife?"
James, god of earth: "Peaceful. And that's not bad in my book."
Charnel, god of death: "I didn't know you could read?"
Eldred (narrating): "Hearing their petty squabbles......"

haha yea, but Charnel's introduction is still one of the best though

"I am Charnel, God of Strife, God of Slaughter, god of... DEATH! Where there is pain, i am there. Where there is suffering, i flourish. Where there is joy..... yes, well one could hardly have joy without another's suffering, no?"

oh and this ones great too

persephone, goddes of life: Charnel, death isn't the anwser to everything...
Charnel, god of death: Yes... torture also has it's merits.

Shiny really took a dive with the matrix games ~~

 

[SecretLemur]

From somewhere in the Baldur's Gate series:

Minsc: Go for the eyes, Boo! Go for the eyes!

Boo is a miniature giant space hamster that lives in Minsc's pocket.

Assassin's Creed-

"Everything is false, Nothing is forbidden."

And the dialog where Al-Mualim makes you review what the creed is and the whole meaning behind it and that motto. I cant recite it, but it was awesome.

Bioshock-

I loev this one because you find the recorder that contains it next to an incredibly bloody scene- a Body is impaled on a table by a Big Daddy's drill. Blood is everywhere; the table is covered in it, the ceiling, the drill, the body, all soaked in the stuff.
"Suchong: Clinical Trial Protector System Plasmid Lot 255 Dr. Suchong/client Ryan Industries. Very frustrating day. I can't seem to get the damn Big Daddies to imprint on the little brats. The protection bond is just not forming...

Little Sister: Papa Suchong!

Suchong: Get, get away... maybe if I modify the genetic sequence to...

Little Sister: Papa Suchong!

Suchong: Shush, shoo... sequence to allow for...

Little Sister: Papa Suchong! Papa Suchong! Papa Suchong!

Suchong: Get away you filthy little shit! *smacks Little Sister* *Little Sister starts to cry* ...What? *Big Daddy growls* What are you doing? get back... get back!!! Argghghhhhhhhh!"

Ryan-"A Man chooses! A slave obeys!"

Th last one is just so sad because it's Ryan trying to fight Fontaine's Genetic Imprinting on Jack. He wants to believe that a son of his would be stronger than the genetics... but he's wrong.

Final Fantasy 2 (4) for SNES

Tellah to Edward: "You spoony bard"

Can't believe no one else mentioned that one.

 

[Chrono180]

How about:
Skies of Arcadia:
"Hey Vyze, my cannon is bigger than yours!"

Baldurs Gate:
"You know what I always say? Always kill the mouthy one, that's what I always say."

Baldur's Gate 2:
"That's the problem with mercenaries, isn't it? They do all fine and well until someone shows up with a better offer."

Planescape Torment:
"Another comment like that and you'll be wearing your ass as a hat."

 

[Dectilon]

Final Fantasy 2 (4) for SNES

Tellah to Edward: "You spoony bard"

Can't believe no one else mentioned that one.

It's a classic quote, the question is: is it funny/witty/intelligent?

 

[ChemicalCutthroat]

"Would you kindly?"

Some of my favorites are Konami Games.. Very Good Writing..


like Castlevania LOI:

Dracula: But I am beloved by the Night..

Forgot the guy's name: I'll Kill you AND the NighT!!

~~~~
That one was funny/cool also
~~~~

Ninja : I've come from another world to do battle with you.

Snake : What is it? Revenge?

Ninja : It is nothing so trivial as revenge. A fight to the death with
you. Only in that can my soul find respite. I will kill you or
you will kill me... it makes no difference.

~~~~

That and
~~~~

Liquid: FOX...!

Snake: Die!!!!
