It's Payne!: The Very Best in Enemy Flavor Dialogue

Yeah, Max payne 1 enemy dialogue is the best!


It's a dialogue that can be heard during one stage.
Feel like giving a birth!

Kingpin was full of foul language. Every time the enemies spotted you they said something like this:

"Fuck you motherfucker!"
"Piss the fuck off!"
"Fuck you, you piece of shit!"


When you installed the game you could choose between two voice options. Uncensored or censored where every swear word was bleeped out. It was hilarious.

How is it handled in the steam version ?
 
Jedi Knight: Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy had nice talking between enemy NPCs. Unfortunately, some quick googling didn't yield any results.
 
Perfect Dark wins for those rare occurrences when a guard decides to run up to you, do a barrel roll and stand up exclaiming: "I'm just too good".

Or when they pop around a corner and their gun jams. "My gun!"
 
I love the dialogue for the grunts on Bordelands 2 when you killied them:

"I was so close to finishing my comic book collection."
"Tell my wife......she's a bitch" :D

There were many others.
 
Die Hard Trilogy, Playstation 1: 'That's McClane!'

(Pretty sure I remember the game changing the pitch so the one sample sounded different on random bad guys)

Oh and Morrowind, 'This is the end of you, swit!'

SUFFER LIKE G DID (for those using ctrl-f) - House of the Dead 2
 
"TETRAS TE TI IMBECIIIILE" - RE4

"Donnn't kill me (russian accent)" - MGS 2 guards, when you hold them up

"Aaaaaah another small one, what a dissapointing caaaatch." - Devil May Cry 1 Phantom (spider boss)

"What's that noise? " - classic MGS 1 guard
 
Borderlands 2 probably has some of the funniest lines I've ever heard.

I had a large enemy coming at me yesterday, making all sorts of threats. He got pretty close to me before I killed him, to which he called me a lucky son of a bitch.

Sometimes you just hang around for a couple minutes longer just to see how long the nervous rambling is gonna go on for

Another with long ass badguy conversations are the Arkham games. They have such cartoonish evil voices and the back and forths seem to go on forever, whether it be talking about Catwoman's ass or Harley's ass or Batman's ass

I also really like the Halo grunts little helium voices for various things. "Wake up! Bad guys!" *kill one of the grunts* "nooo, what will I do without him?" *when hiding* "It's safe to come out, this is... Sergeant Humanoid. Uhh....Yeah"

and then there's that final grunt hidden away near Halo 3's endgame climatic escape sequence most people pass up. "Hey, Demon! The jerk store called, and they're all out of you! Poor you, stolen at the age of six and conscripted into the military, waaaaaah! Okay look, if you let me live, I got the Fist of Rukt. Look, I'll be at the bottom. I'll polish your boots. I'll polish your helmet! It's the gas, haha! When I'm on the gas, I don't know what I'm doing half the time!"
 
Remedy is and will be forever unmatched in this regard. In MP2 I'd always hang out in the station when that guy who chopped up his girlfriend and her lover and buried them in his backyard was giving his statement to the incredulous detective.
 
The entire ensemble of the terrorists in Rainbox Six Vegas (1 or/and 2)

Sadly there are no great compilations on youtube to showcase the wonderful, colorful banter of enemy dialog.


Some examples (of which are better delivered when heard in game than text could ever portray):

After a player/ally kills an enemy soldier with other enemies still alive.

"Shit, he's dead, We're Fucked"

"That bitch (the now dead terrorist) owned me money"
 
Max Payne is easily my favourite for this. I remember in Max Payne 2 in the high-class apartments there was some enemies chatting while one of them was playing the piano of the guy they had just killed.

Not enemies, but flavour dialogue nonetheless:

Bamco were too cheap to record individual "wallah" for every town you visit in Tales of Xillia. Thus, every time you enter a new town, you will hear the same cry in the background. No matter where you are.

"MUTTON! GET YOUR FRESH MUTTON!"

Note: there is nowhere that you, as a player, can buy mutton in this game.

Holy shit! I love this one - whenever me and my friend visit any town in a Tales game now, we instinctively shout "Mutton, fresh Mutton!"

Max Payne is the best though, it's true.

(also, Perfect Darks best is "Taking damage!" when being shot. How exactly would anyone in reality ever say that?!)
