I'm looking for the best game tagline of all time. It can be from ads or the cover/back cover.

My nomination is on Shadow of the Colossus magazine ads:

On the ones I've seen, there's some variation of:

"Some mountains are scaled. Others are slain."

There was also "How far would you go for love?" which was pretty cool, but not as central to the game.

Gaf is amazing. First post ALWAYS nails it.

"Suck it down" fucking slays me.

 

[Grakl]

Beaten by first post.

 

[MYE]

First post gets it done

 

[Forceatowulf]

Holy shit, OP nailed it for me... yeah.. I have nothing else to contribute here. The deed is done.

 

[Nibel]

First post wins, but I also thought that Killzone 2's "War perfected" tagline is the most badass way to describe your shooter

That's the one I have hanging in my room. But how is it not central to the game??

Videogame taglines are so stupid, yet I'm really fond on "Prepare to Die" from Dark Souls.

I feel the same way with "Hungry for some snake?" from MGS3.

Yup, this.

The MGS4 one was horrible, can't remember the first half, but it ends 'courage is solid' I believe.

It's more fun having to guess.

I looked around, but I couldn't find anything that could top "Some mountains are scaled. Others are slain."

I love the "My brother was wrongly accused of starting the apocalypse. His fate concerns me, yours.. doesnt" *SLICESHITUP* line

but yeah they probably cant implement it as a tagline properly

Well, Wander

Spoiler

thinks he is killing the colossi because of his love for Mono, but he's doing it out of self-interest since bringing someone back from the dead assumes they want to come back. He puts his horse and the world in danger to get what he wants.

imo

He knows how it's affecting him, and continues. He was willing to go to any lengths.

I always liked this.

I always thought Prepare to Die was a great way to sell Dark Souls.

The OP already has my pick.

"How far would you go for love?"

I disagree with the OP though. It's extremely central to the game.

 

[Soma]

Deus Ex: Human Revolution - "It's not the end of the world, but you can see it from here."

I'm not even sure if that's an official tagline but man that still sounds cool.

 

[RoadDogg]

Not really a tag line, but it was the punchline of the commercial.

Looking back, the lead up to KZ2 was some of the best moments of Neogaf...ever.
