Favorite Line/Quote in a game

The Palito form is dead, insect. Are you afraid? - Shodan

Don't blame me. Blame yourself. Or god. - Delita
 
"Death at the gates again. Howling my name. Can’t greet you today. Got a war to win." - BJ Blazkowicz, Wolfenstein: The New Order
 
"There are no choices. Nothing but a straight line. The illusion comes afterwards, when you ask "why me?" and "what if?". When you look back and see the branches, like a pruned bonsai tree, or forked lightning. If you had done something differently, it wouldn't be you, it would be someone else looking back, asking a different set of questions."

Max Payne 2.

I love Sam Lake's dialogue in all the game's he has written.

The EXACT quote I was going to use. My man.

"I think it's time for Jack to let 'er rip" followed by the awesome
Monsoon
boss theme.

Metal Gear Rising
 
Would you kindly?

Those of you helping us test the Repulsion Gel today, just follow the blue line on the floor. Those of you who volunteered to be injected with praying mantis DNA, I've got some good news and some bad news. Bad news is we're postponing those tests indefinitely. Good news is we've got a much better test for you: fighting an army of mantis men. Pick up a rifle and follow the yellow line. You'll know when the test starts.
 
- "Kept you waiting, huh?"

- "Metal.. Gear?"

- The entirety of the Patriot's speech at the end of MGS2.

- "Soul of the mind, key to life's aether.
Soul of the lost, withdrawn from its vessel.
Let strength be granted, so the world might be mended.
So the world might be mended."


- "Hunters have told me about the church. About the gods, and their love. But... do the gods love their creations? I am a doll, created by you humans. Would you ever think to love me? Of course... I do love you. Isn't that how you've made me?", by the plain doll, this one really got me thinking for days and days about the relationship between a creator and it's creation.


- The entirety of Maria's dialogue in Silent Hill 2. The performance was so so good. The most memorable one was, "It doesn't matter who I am. I'm here for you, James. See? I'm real." Just the way she said it, damn even I thought she was real.
 
"Succeeding you, father."

And this. Tears me up like no other RPG.

This would be such a terrible scene when using modern technology. I'm talking FFXIII scorched earth levels of shit. I can imagine the terrible voice acting, and melodramatic music right now.

Also, OP:

"Go home and be a family man."

GLaDOS, Portal 2: Here come the test results: "You are a horrible person." That's what it says: a horrible person. We weren't even testing for that.

Pretty much all of Portal 2, really.
 
From Final Fantasy X :

"Well, well, well! If it isn't the Besaid Aurochs! They're a living, breathing, statistical impossibility! I've never seen a team this bad!"
 
Massive spoilers for the ending of Spec Ops: The Line

CPT Walker: What happened here was out of my control.
COL Konrad: Was it? None of this would've happened if you'd just stopped. But on you marched. And for what?
CPT Walker: We tried to save you.
COL Konrad: You're no savior. Your talents lie elsewhere.
CPT Walker: This isn't my fault!
COL Konrad: It takes a strong man to deny what's right in front of him. And if the truth is undeniable, you create your own. The truth, Walker, is that you're here because you wanted to feel like something you're not: A hero. I'm here because you can't accept what you've done. It broke you. You needed someone to blame, so you cast it on me, a dead man.
 
"You lack the qualifications to exercise free will"

Always wanted to say this to a subordinate at work too (yes, I'm an asshole).
