Best game one-liners?

[Plan9]

"5 Logs" - The carpenter (?) in monkey island 2 :grin:

[DrSpike]

To continue the Monkey Island theme (what a great series. )

Since we haven't had many 'escape' ones:

People: There is no ESCAPE FROM MONKEY ISLAND
Guybrush: That's funny, I've escaped from there 3 times already.

This is more funny than it looks, because the phrase in caps is said in a booming 1940s announcing the film voice......and it is every single time within the game those words are said.

Almost exactly the same message as what you get in dark rooms in ADOM. In that game, if you're doomed, there's a 1/1000 chance of instadeath every turn you spend in the dark.

Funniest game I've ever played was Full Throttle.

Some of the best one liners:

"No offense, but we need a bigger diversion."

"...I'll bleed all over your driveway."
"Actually, that's good for the decor."

"I hate seeing her like that."
"Why? It's really my best side"

"She's got her hands all over my bike!"
"Jealous?"

"High kicking was never my move."

"I could try but it wouldn't die."

"Maybe you just passed out. You should learn to hold your liquor."

"Somehow I pictured this guy having a bigger refrigerator."

"Candygram."

Hehe yeah these are cool. If you poke the orc enough times he will say "I'm just not that kind of orc".

SMAC is full of good quotes too.. not exactly one liners though..



Einstein would turn over in his grave. Not only does God play dice, the dice are loaded.

Chairman Sheng-ji Yang
"Looking God in the Eye"



If our society seems more nihilistic than that of previous eras, perhaps this is simply a sign of our maturity as a sentient species. As our collective consciousness expands beyond a crucial point, we are at last ready to accept life's fundamental truth: that life's only purpose is life itself.

Chairman Sheng-ji Yang
"Looking God in the Eye"



Man's unfailing capacity to believe what he prefers to be true rather than what the evidence shows to be likely and possible has always astounded me. We long for a caring Universe which will save us from our childish mistakes, and in the face of mountains of evidence to the contrary we will pin all our hopes on the slimmest of doubts. God has not been proven not to exist, therefore he must exist.
