   What are your favourite quotes in video games?
   
   We know video games, their worlds and their characters, but what about famous messages throughout them? My personal favourite quote is one for every fighter to live by: "The best techniques are passed on by the survivors", by Gaiden Shinji of the Elder Scrolls series. What are your favourite philosophical, inspiring or funny quotes you've heard in a video game? I'm interested to know!

   I haven't really played many only due to the fact that I lack the skill. Lara Croft was constantly falling off of cliffs or drowning in my hands. That said, I did play Die Hard quite a few times with the kids. My favorite lines were.
   
   "What! No turkey, it's Christmas"
   Yippee Ki-Yay ......and the rest of it
   
   Not quite as profound as your example. LOL

   My all time favorite quotes from games would have to be Get Over Here from Mortal Kombat.

      I like that one because one of my favourite critics, Spoony, named himself after that (plus he used Spoony as an RP character name most of the time). ^^

      The latter one I remember now, and that final boss battle in the first game was hilarious! For a kid's game it sure had some terrific dialogue ^^

      It's an awesome game, John, indeed.
      My girlfriend and I got hooked on it and ended up getting giants as well. And yep... we got hooked and suckered in to the commercialism... more figures than we really need.  LOL

      Some great ones there! Out of all of them though, only the Duke Nukem one comes to mind. He also said " it's time to kick ass and chew bubblegum.... and I'm all outta gum", which was actually from John Carpenter's "They Live!" ^^

      Yes, Rowdy Roddy Piper!
      Duke also said '"Groovy", which was also taken from Ash in The Evil Dead.
      Not really quotes, by I also liked the voices of the soldiers in 'Z' when they said 'Unit Reporting' or 'Help! Help!'
      Enjoyed the voices in Worms too!
