Favorite lines in video games
In this thread basically post your favorite scenes of dialogue between characters in video games.
I was just playing Advance Wars: Days of Ruin and came across this line
"Boy meets girl. Boy gives girl flower. Boy names girl. ...What's wrong with this world?" I laughed at that one for a good minute.
Others include
"Enough is enough! I have had it with these Balthazar-blasted drakes on this Balthazar-blasted plain!" ~ A certain quest in Guild Wars called Drakes on the Plain.
So yeah, what are your favorite lines?

They hide in metal boxes! (soulstorm)
We will be quick and dirty- I hope you have your condom on (World Domination- internet flash game)
In the event of an emergency, you will be used as a flotation device (dropship, starcraft)
I fear no evil for I am fear INCARNATE! (space marine codex, dawn of war force commander)
Mostly I just walk into people's homes and riffle through their stuff... (Chosen one, Fallout 2)

Okay, maybe I can't outnerd anyone here, but I offer this:
"How high can you get?"
(if you need an explanation for that one, you just haven't lived enough)
Hint: Mario's first adventure ever.

"When the injustice is great enough, justice will lend me the strength needed to correct it. None may stand against it. It will shatter every barrier, sunder any shield, tear through any enchantment, and lend its servant the power to pass sentence. Know this: There is nothing on all the Planes that can stay the hand of justice when it is brought against them. It may unmake armies. It may sunder the thrones of gods. Know that for all who betray justice, I am their fate. And fate carries an executioner's axe."
"I see..."
"No, you do NOT see. Pray you never will."

Five hundred years ago, everybody knew the Earth was flat, and fifteen minutes ago, you knew that humans were alone on this planet. Imagine what you'll know...tomorrow."

Re: Favorite lines in video games
On a bit of a different tack, I present these from the Grand Theft Auto series:
Grand Theft Auto III
Donald Love: "Experience has taught me that a man like you can be very loyal for the right price, but groups of men get greedy."
Donald Love: "Your are proving to be a safe investment, a rare thing in these days of falsehood."
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
Mike Toreno: "Kids like you. You expect heroes. We're fighting a war out there. I'll be a hero and I'll lose, and what'll we have?"
Mike Toreno: "You just don't understand, do you, kid. It's all white knights and heroes. We have to make decisions, kid. You know, I try to set bad people on other bad people. And sometimes, I let good guys die. He's your brother, but to me, he's just collateral. It's a very delicate decision. Over here, you got all the scumbags inside the country, and over here, you got all the scumbags outside the country. And me and my colleagues. We're the fucking pivot."

For all the game's flaws, I've always been fond of Relic's voice work:

Pretty much every line from Gears qualifies, as Stark demonstrates. The delivery is amazing: it's like the ultimate balance of serious, ridiculous macho bullshit one liners and self-aware parody. It's a giant worm!

"Wait, who is Alma?"
"She's the mother of the apocalypse."
Project Origin doesn't have a whole lot of truely memorable lines, but damn is that one awesome. Also:
"Take her back to the Vault."
Goddamn, Harlan. Goddamn you are one cold bastard.
Also, my single favorite line from Army Of Two:
"I'm gonna kill you both, take out your organs, rip out your bones, put you in a big chair with some elves and reindeer, and sit on your lap and tell you about all the cool shit I want for Christmas."
