Just Cause


Q: Why did you tether that guy to an airplane about to take off?
A: Just Cause

This is my vote as well

Q: Why are you fighting for the revolution?
A: I find it to be a just cause.

I love it because its a double entendre, and both meanings fit the game perfectly.
 
Journey

Just Cause is a good one but fuck JC3.

I also imagine Bloodborne but dont really know the story or anything. It seems like it is though lol.

P.T. was quite apt in a way also.
 
Tales of the Abyss

as in that game went straight into the trash abyss after a certain plot point in the game.Even to this day I'm almost surprised at how hard I dropped it like a diseased potato.
 
Dead Space

Dr. Serrano: I remember telling my college professor I wanted to study xenoarcheology. He laughed right in my face. "There’s nothing to study," he said. "It’s all dead space. No alien life exist out in the universe." In a way, I guess he was right...
 
Monster Hunter.

You hunt monsters.

Back in the PSP days my sister walked by and asked me what game I was playing. I said "Monster Hunter, guess what you do in it". She stared at me blankly for a few seconds before saying "...kill people?"
