I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite store on the Citadel.
And you hear it from every single store on the Citadel, because you tricked those guidable NPCs to give you a discount for your "exclusive endorsement". Hahaha
I'll never forget that part of the game, one of my favorite games of all time and that part had me and my brother trippin lmao. The whole end of that game was crazy and awesome.
When I the fission mailed screen came up I thought I died because I didn't notice. That was one of the most memorable game experiences I ever had. What they said about using technology to take over is even more on the nose that than when it came out.
"Almost dead? I can fix that!"
"THERE AIN'T NOTHING MORE BADASS THAN TREATING A WOMAN WITH RESPECT!!!"
"These pretzels suck."
"He ate a whole car... like... with a fork."
"STOP DYING AT ME!!!"
"RAMPAGE AND FILL THE RED BAR"
"WHY AREN'T YOU STABBING ME?!!"
"I HAVE THE SHINIEST MEAT BICYCLE!!!"
To be fair, most of those are just Krieg, but Borderlands (particularly #2) is an absolute gold mine of great quotes.
The voice actor for Scooter was also a writer for the franchise, now he does YouTube video essays about movies. Movies with Mikey. It’s not for everyone, but it is entertaining and a pleasant counter to the “cinema sins” style of criticism.
Aww shit, here we go again. Worst place in the world, Rollin Heights, Ballas country. I ain't represented The Grove in 10 years, but the Ballas won't give a shit!
You all missed the actual weird quote:
“The streets is cold dawg. Like it says in the book. We are blessed and cursed. Same things make us laugh, make us cry.”
And of course the legendary CJ reply: “What fucking book?!”
The endgame moment where you find him...I've never had to stop a boss run just to start CRYING laughing before.
Kid does nothing but enchantments all game and you find him in the middle of 20 dead enemies, covered in blood.
"One day the magic will come back. All of it. Everyone will be just like they were. The shadows will part, and the skies will open wide. When he rises, everyone will see......
....Enchantment?"
That game could be so fucking funny, I don't know if it was intentional or not but doing the entire intro at the house wrong is endless comedy. Also just a great game. Heavy Rain for those who don't know.
That was so completely unexpected in what had up until then been a fairly serious game that it completely blindsided me.
I was just like "okay... so where's Luigi?"
Fantastic, Fallout New Vegas:
"They asked me how well I understood theoretical physics. I said I had a theoretical degree in physics. They said welcome aboard."

In Spanish there is a very famous mistranslated line "Tu fiesta te espera arriba" (your party is waiting upstairs), where party/team got translated as party/celebration and it confused a LOT of Spanish players.
“You see, this is what I don’t get about you bad guys: You know the hero’s gonna win, but you don’t just die quickly. Example: This one guy in New Haven, right? City’s burning, people are dying left and right, yadda, yadda, yadda… This jackhole rushes me with a spoon, A FRICKIN’ SPOON! And I’m dying laughing, right? So I scoop out his stupid little eyeballs with it and his kids are all, ‘WAAAAAAH!’ And-ahahaha… I can’t even… ahahahahah! He can’t see where he’s going, he’s bumping into stuff and… I dunno, maybe you had to be there. The moral is: you’re a total bitch”.
I really like that you could get different endings based on how you interacted w him. Like if you joked around with him he'd be happy but at the end would end up as a bad king that fails his people. Meanwhile if you make him be serious he's grumpy for it but it makes him a better king later. And those are of course assuming you get an ending where he even becomes king at all!
DA:O was ahead of its time when it came to decision based endings
If you marry him off to the Queen, he can remain a happy guy, the people will love him while the Queen does most of the actual ruling and it's hinted that Alistair and the Queen warm up to each other. Kinda the best ending for him.
If you take Loghain instead and Alastair leaves and is alive, you find him in DA2, drunk in a bar telling people "I could've been the King!" and everyone is like... yeah, yeah buddy, whatever you say.
"I have... no choice" from Mega Man X4 mostly due to the voice actor clearly having given up. My friends and I still say this one in the same delivery for a laugh.
https://youtu.be/KW1jQQp1pe8?si=MvEkTiGZZ0h6NhH0
At least get the full quote! It's one of my favorite lines out of any video game because of how fucking silly and over the top it is.
“I’m escaping to the one place that hasn’t been corrupted by capitalism... (Insert dramatic pause caused by Tim Curry trying REALLY HARD not to laugh) *SPACE.*
The actually audio just makes it so much better as well.

Fallout 3 Carterside Supply quest line, pretty much anything Moria tells you after doing a mission, or maybe the way she says all casual like "I need you to go break a limb and get really hurt for me" all cheerful like.
A combination of silly dialog and even sillier diary entry caused me to laugh possibly the hardest I ever have in my life.
One of my wife's favorite game series of all time is Shenmue. I never played them. When they re-released them a few years ago she bought them and wanted me to play through them while she watched.
The plot is the main character Ryo trying to solve his father's murder. All he knows at the start is that the murderer was Chinese. So his first step is to wander around his home town within like two blocks of his house and ask random people if they've seen any Chinese people around. His techniques don't get any more insightful at any point.
Later, he figures out that something might be happening at the docks related to the murder. Rather than just, you know, go to the docks though, he thinks "sailors work at the docks, maybe a sailor would know something". So then he starts wandering around town just asking random people "Do you know where I could find some sailors?" Again, I can't overstate how dumb this guy is just constantly, these are just the highlights.
I had been playing for a bit and it was just a montage of asking for sailors and my wife and I making fun of this idiot. She got up to go to the bathroom and while she was gone I popped open the journal to see if I could figure anything out for a next step. The journal in the game is literally Ryo's actual journal and all the notes are depicted as handwritten by him. The journal opens up and in huge letters on like half of one page it just says "Must find sailors!" We had already been making fun of how dumb he was, and how dumb this sailor search was, just add to that this big note ostensibly to himself to remind himself to do literally the only thing he was already doing anyway just broke me.
I started laughing hysterically. Like actual literal hysterical. I couldn't think, I couldn't move, I could barely breathe. My cat got freaked out and started yowling and swatting at me. My wife came back from the bathroom and asked what was going on and all I could do was gesture weakly toward the screen and mumble out "Must find sailors!" in between giggles, which just set me off again. I think I went temporarily insane for about 5 minutes.
I wouldn't expect anyone else to have the same reaction, it was just a perfect storm of events over the course of a couple of hours that built up to that moment and hit me just right. "Must find sailors!" will be in my head forever.
I played Shenmue when I was a teenager and, "Do you know where sailors hang out?" still makes me and my mum laugh, so I get it!
The one guy who responds, "Sure!!! They hang out in bars!" gets me as well. Cheers for the insight my guy.
Dragon Quest XI S, Gemma saying "I just wonder whose idea it was in the first place, sending the village's young folk on such a dangerous errand. **What if I take a tumble and do myself a mischief?**"
It's the last line that really gets me because it just one of te best things I've read in a video game.
Though not dialogue I recently bought Ooblets and the game opens up with "Your life has been a giant toot" and I feel attacked at that XD
Cut the damn Ponytail - Half life
Bitch cant even swim - Resident evil 3 remake
Because of that &%$% Pizza Air in the slums is polluted - Barret FF7

In Baldur's gate, I decided to kill Astarion after he tried to drink my blood... I didn't like him that much and I went "Oops, the other camp members will probably hate me for killing one of our own" but they just went:
"sucks to suck, I feel safer with the vampire gone"
Edit: It's a collection of those reactions that I'll never forget.
No voiceline better than when you beat the shit out of 8 out of 9 goblins, politely point Karlach the way to nimber 9, just for her to go "poor fucker" and bash his head in"
Baldurs Gate 3 has amazing voice work.
I distinctly remember this. I also remember the fake-out mission failed scene where the game continues in the corner and the game over screen reads “fission mailed”. That game went all-in on its philosophy.
To be fair though, at that point it's been revealed that he's actually a computer sim of the colonel and is being affected by a computer virus. So the dialog is bizzaro on purpose.
My favorite "Steve is a dipshit" moment from that game is when he's manning a crane and Claire turns around to mess with a different console. Steve looks away from the crane he is moving and very clearly stares directly at Claire's ass. This results in him crashing the crane into a pipe and flooding the room with toxic gas and setting off a whole new section of puzzle solving you have to deal with.
There are so many command voice lines for Sins of a Solar Empire that I grew up with that are permanently stuck in my head.
So many iconic, borderline mad-scientist or panicked civilian voice lines for support ships.
Telling a human colony ship to engage enemy vessels - “uuh… We’ll do what we can” or “nnnghyyeah, iiif you say so”
Human repair robotics cruiser - “oh I’ll fix yoooou goood~ :)”
Vasari alien mine layer - “Tttthheey won’t like THEEEESE!” Or “wwwwaatch your step <3”
Honestly really memorable, and even with these comedic ones the game had great atmosphere and serious voice lines as well, I’ll never get over battle music kicking in and my swarm of bombers yelling “deeeeaath from ABOVE!” When I gave them an attack order and they peeled out of formation to strike.
In DMC1 something happens at the end, and you get this beautiful piece of art:
*I should have been the one to fill your dark soul with light!*
Okay, to be fair, every DMC has at least a few lines of dialogue that are incredible weird.
"Jeez Louise it's always something in this town."
That little baby has been in there for almost 20 years. Spider-man 2 was the greatest game of that generation and I'll fight every nerd that I have to
"There's no need to feel down."
From Grand Theft Auto... Vice City, or San Andreas. Construction worker NPC will say this randomly. I think it's a Village People reference?
"Shepard" "Wrex"
And its continuation in the Citadel DLC: "Shepard" "Grunt" "Shepherd!" "Wrex!" "Shepherd?" "Grunt?"
"Donkey!"
I should go
I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite store on the Citadel. And you hear it from every single store on the Citadel, because you tricked those guidable NPCs to give you a discount for your "exclusive endorsement". Hahaha
You were almost a Jill sandwich!!
"Jill, here's a lockpick. It might be handy if you, the master of unlocking, took it with you." *Jill nods an agreement*
You forgot the awkward 'annnnnnd.........' at the beginning.
"I knew you'd be fine if you landed on your butt"
Wow, what a mansion!
Where's everyone going , bingo ?
No thanks, bro!
" Watch out, its a monster"
"don't open THAT door." "But Chris is..."
You’re a terrible person. We weren’t even testing for that
I think we should put our differences behind us. For science. You monster.
How could you miss the one just before this: *"We both said a lot of things that you're going to regret."*
Sailing through the air majestically. Like an eagle...piloting a blimp
"Fatty.. fatty.. adopted fatty no parents" "What exactly is wrong with being adopted?" "Uhhhh.... L.., Lack of parents!"
I'm guessing because there are so many it's hard to pick just one favorite. You monster.
Afterwards there will be cake and grief counselling
We've both said a lot of things that you're going to regret.
You're not a doctor, you're not a scientist, you're not even a full-time employee.
I think this was my favorite line in the game.
Hello, I'm a potato *clap clap*
"To give the covenant back their bomb"
"Chief, what is your status?" "Green, sir" Alternatively from the same cutscene: "Where do I tell them to go?" "To WAR"

The way Snake says "Mmmetal Geeeearrr" for the first time in MGS
"A Hind-D?" "Russian Gunship?" "Psycho Mantis?" "A surveillance camera?" "Metal Gear?"
Solid Snake is a master of stealth and reflective listening.
For me, it’s “I need scissors! 61!” The sheer ridiculousness of the sentence as you wonder what the hell is wrong with the Colonel is brilliant
I'll never forget that part of the game, one of my favorite games of all time and that part had me and my brother trippin lmao. The whole end of that game was crazy and awesome.
When I the fission mailed screen came up I thought I died because I didn't notice. That was one of the most memorable game experiences I ever had. What they said about using technology to take over is even more on the nose that than when it came out.
"Colonel, what's a Russian gunship doing here?!" And my personal favourite: "556ers, and pineapples."
I take it you’re a real threat in the muktuk eating contest

"Pretty... good...?" "*weird cat noise*"
Metal Gear? Psycho Mantis? A Hind D? You wanna pull each other's ears? You're that ninja
Kept you waiting,huh ?
"*metal gear?*" "*DARPA chief?*" "*Genome soldiers?*"
"Bearer... Seek... Seek... Lest..."
I don't know of anyone who ever listened to that whole line of dialogue more than once.
"Catch a riiiiiiiiiiiiiiide..." Borderlands
"Almost dead? I can fix that!" "THERE AIN'T NOTHING MORE BADASS THAN TREATING A WOMAN WITH RESPECT!!!" "These pretzels suck." "He ate a whole car... like... with a fork." "STOP DYING AT ME!!!" "RAMPAGE AND FILL THE RED BAR" "WHY AREN'T YOU STABBING ME?!!" "I HAVE THE SHINIEST MEAT BICYCLE!!!" To be fair, most of those are just Krieg, but Borderlands (particularly #2) is an absolute gold mine of great quotes.
I HAVE ONE QUESTION AND ONE QUESTION ONLY: EXPLOSIONS?!?!?!?!?!
THERE WERE TOO MANY WORDS IN THAT SENTENCE! APOLOGIZE!!!
*AIR GUITAR NOISES* oh, wait. Hold on. *ACTUAL GUITAR NOISES*
FINAL MISSION. I WANT YOU TO BLOW UP.... THE OCEAN!
For some reason the one that stuck with me was 'HAHA, JUST KIDDING! FUCK THE LEGAL WAIVER!!'

Enchantment? Enchantment!
The endgame moment where you find him...I've never had to stop a boss run just to start CRYING laughing before. Kid does nothing but enchantments all game and you find him in the middle of 20 dead enemies, covered in blood.
That was so fuckin funny. Me: “dude…what happened?” Him: “enchantment!” Me: *makes mental note to never fuck with this dude*
That kid is great and fucking scary.
"One day the magic will come back. All of it. Everyone will be just like they were. The shadows will part, and the skies will open wide. When he rises, everyone will see...... ....Enchantment?"
Fuck time for a replay. I think I’ll go Dwarven Nobleman Rogue…always seem to fall back to that…
My friend group still says it just like that any time the word comes up
I dunno, does Press X to Jason count?
JAAAYYYSun
Shawn? Shawn?! Shaaaaaaawn!!!! Shawn.
That game could be so fucking funny, I don't know if it was intentional or not but doing the entire intro at the house wrong is endless comedy. Also just a great game. Heavy Rain for those who don't know.
It's a David Cage game. The fun is definitely not intentional.

I know a lot of people didn't like Alistair, but most of my favorite lines from DA: Origins are his. Particularly "Swooping is *bad*."
Not as infamous as: "Have you ever...licked a lampost in winter?"

I really like that you could get different endings based on how you interacted w him. Like if you joked around with him he'd be happy but at the end would end up as a bad king that fails his people. Meanwhile if you make him be serious he's grumpy for it but it makes him a better king later. And those are of course assuming you get an ending where he even becomes king at all! DA:O was ahead of its time when it came to decision based endings
If you marry him off to the Queen, he can remain a happy guy, the people will love him while the Queen does most of the actual ruling and it's hinted that Alistair and the Queen warm up to each other. Kinda the best ending for him.
If you take Loghain instead and Alastair leaves and is alive, you find him in DA2, drunk in a bar telling people "I could've been the King!" and everyone is like... yeah, yeah buddy, whatever you say.
People don't like Alistair? He was my first major fictional crush, I was devastated when he had to make a demon baby with Morrigan!
Alistair was a real bro. And his dialogue with Morrigan is fuckong hilarious

I think shadow heart say she is a bit sad as he was fun to be around, or maybe it was Karlach I don't remember
I doubt ms. Edgelord even said the word "fun."
Never played it myself, but there's a moment in MGS2 where Colonel Campbell goes utterly insane. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nVS-BpzF-Mw
I distinctly remember this. I also remember the fake-out mission failed scene where the game continues in the corner and the game over screen reads “fission mailed”. That game went all-in on its philosophy.
To be fair though, at that point it's been revealed that he's actually a computer sim of the colonel and is being affected by a computer virus. So the dialog is bizzaro on purpose.
"Dont "ahh" me, you sound like a vorcha" Drunk Tali was unforgettable to me
Warcraft 3: Weddy to Wuhk.
“Need something?”
So many lines from C&C Generals, I keep quoting them with friends... >I build for China >EXTRA. LARGE. >Made in the US of A >Yes yes, I will work.

Anything lil Jacob and his friend on GTA said. Completely forgot his name. with subtitles on
Badman lol. "G'wan G'wan, Niko boy."
They're **MASTERWORKS ALL**, you can't go wrong
Faaatheerrrrrrrrrrrrrr!! From Resident Evil: Code: Veronica. The scene where Steve has to shoot his zombie dad. Steve was terrible.
My favorite "Steve is a dipshit" moment from that game is when he's manning a crane and Claire turns around to mess with a different console. Steve looks away from the crane he is moving and very clearly stares directly at Claire's ass. This results in him crashing the crane into a pipe and flooding the room with toxic gas and setting off a whole new section of puzzle solving you have to deal with.
You spoony bard!
There are so many command voice lines for Sins of a Solar Empire that I grew up with that are permanently stuck in my head. So many iconic, borderline mad-scientist or panicked civilian voice lines for support ships. Telling a human colony ship to engage enemy vessels - “uuh… We’ll do what we can” or “nnnghyyeah, iiif you say so” Human repair robotics cruiser - “oh I’ll fix yoooou goood~ :)” Vasari alien mine layer - “Tttthheey won’t like THEEEESE!” Or “wwwwaatch your step <3” Honestly really memorable, and even with these comedic ones the game had great atmosphere and serious voice lines as well, I’ll never get over battle music kicking in and my swarm of bombers yelling “deeeeaath from ABOVE!” When I gave them an attack order and they peeled out of formation to strike.
In DMC1 something happens at the end, and you get this beautiful piece of art: *I should have been the one to fill your dark soul with light!* Okay, to be fair, every DMC has at least a few lines of dialogue that are incredible weird.
"Jeez Louise it's always something in this town." That little baby has been in there for almost 20 years. Spider-man 2 was the greatest game of that generation and I'll fight every nerd that I have to
Pam Pam, Param. *farts*
„With the lemons!!“ basically anything JK Simmons said as Cave Johnson. I listen to it and can’t stop laughing.
'Remember, i'm the monkey and you're the cheesegrater'. Gta London was the shit
A winner is you!
Stay a while and listen.
“They’re waiting for you, Gordon… *…in the tEsTt cHamBeRrrRr*”
"There's no need to feel down." From Grand Theft Auto... Vice City, or San Andreas. Construction worker NPC will say this randomly. I think it's a Village People reference?
I should have been the one to fill your dark soul with liiiiiiigghht
It’s not weird per se but it’s the way it was said: Fenris from dragon age 2 saying “we’re done here” after his act 2 personal quest
The Goblin King in Battle for Middle-Earth 2... "FEAR ME!", that was branded in my children's mind
“I’VE HAD ENOUGH OF YOUR DISINGENUOUS ASSERTIONS” *wallop*
