Can you guess a game from a line of dialogue? (thread game)

[Hawki]

Here's another game that too few people played, yet it was strangely prescient:
"I'll make America great again!!!"

Steven Armstrong from Metal Gear Rising?

 

[dscross]

"See you around, officer."
"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."

GTA: San Andreas
Max Payne...ummmm....2?

New line: "Hello. Could you help me treat my injured dinofly?"

New line 2:"Look, prophecies aren't in my job description, OK? I'm just a humble P.I. trying to save the world as we know it."

New line 3: "Welcome to the age of the great guilds!"

 

[Ugicywapih]

Ugh, I only figured out a few quotes that were either obvious, or someone else already handled them well before this post. Either way, here's one classic:

"I wanted ORANGE! it gave me LEMON-LIME!"

I also remember there was a pretty cool extended joke about a tuna and a chef playing chess in one of my favourite classics, but sadly I can't quote it word for word

 

[spartandude]

Here's a line:

"Fye you're itching for the kindling touch of your sister, ye coxfither."

I just started playing Pillars Of Eternity this morning.

 

[MrCalavera_v1legacy]

Here are mine:

1. "Run you pidgeons, it's Robert Frost!"

Grim Fandango.

Correct.

"See you around, officer."
"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."

GTA: San Andreas
Max Payne...ummmm....2?

Also correct.

"I wanted ORANGE! it gave me LEMON-LIME!"

Deus Ex of course.

 

[MrCalavera_v1legacy]

Another:

1. "He took out his hip flask when he reached the page that described how he reached the page that made him take out his hip flask.

It wasn't the booze that made his mind reel."

2. "I need to use the bathroom."

3. "Cornered by bikerz. Eugh. Eugh. Eugh. 2 -the number not the word- young 2 die. xx oo"

 

[Drathnoxis]

3: "Wicked rat, you stole my wallet. Admit it! Alright you little snot, you dragged my wallet under there you can just go bring it back! Blob? Blob, come out of there!"

Disappointed nobody has gotten this one. No Spoony fans left?

Here's a new one:

"Children are pure, they know who's the strongest!"

 

[JohnnyDelRay]

Line 1: "Great is the weapon that cuts on its own."

Darkest dungeon?

Line 4: "No taxes is good taxes, that's my motto"

Crusader stronghold? Only vaguely remember from some meme or something I saw ages ago
No idea of the 3rd one, but I'm curious as to what it is because I'm sure I've heard it somewhere, like a GTA or Saints Row game.

And my contributions (1st one because it's my fav game quote anyway)
1) "Some trees flourish, others die. Some cattle grow strong, others are taken by wolves. Some men are born rich enough and dumb enough to enjoy their lives. Ain't nothing fair. You know that."

2) "Damn it! You guys totally wrecked my shop and I haven't even named it yet!"

 

[Canadamus Prime]

"Shadow and light are two sides of the same coin. One cannot exist without the other."

That sounds so familiar. Is that Twilight Princess?

 

[Dalisclock]

New line 2:"Look, prophecies aren't in my job description, OK? I'm just a humble P.I. trying to save the world as we know it."

New line 3: "Welcome to the age of the great guilds!"

2: I'm pretty sure it's Under a Killing Moon. It's one of the Tex Murphy games for sure.

3: Loom?

 

[Arnoxthe1]

That sounds so familiar. Is that Twilight Princess?

Yep. Zelda says it at the end cutscene.

Twilight Princess Zelda is best Zelda.

3. "Cornered by bikerz. Eugh. Eugh. Eugh. 2 -the number not the word- young 2 die. xx oo"

Can I cheat and say one of the early 3D GTA games? I don' know which one. Before 4. I do remember the line but I can't place which one, other than I think it was one of the spin offs.

New line 2:"Look, prophecies aren't in my job description, OK? I'm just a humble P.I. trying to save the world as we know it."

New line 3: "Welcome to the age of the great guilds!"

2: I'm pretty sure it's Under a Killing Moon. It's one of the Tex Murphy games for sure.

3: Loom?

Both Correct. You are very good at old school point and click dialogue. The only one you didn't get that I've said was the Blade Runner game. Can you get these more difficult ones too?

"He must'a jumped. Fell all the way to ground level."

"Cast adrift...floating...a song...a song upon the wind...wind that rushes through leaves...calling me onward...into a heart of green..."

"The weed of crime bears bitter fruit." "But it makes a pretty good milkshake."

"Which of you five, would like to play my little game?"

And an easy one:

"Paris in the Fall. The last months of the year, and the end of the millennium. The city holds many memories for me: of cafes, of music, of love... and of death."

 

[CaitSeith]

"Which of you five, would like to play my little game?"

I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream

New line: "Good luck, Mr. Bush! I think you'll need it in this neighborhood..."

 

[Fijiman]

New line: "Now the Broadcast is my soul. The Broadcast is my body. The Broadcast is my moustache."

I will be very surprised if anyone gets this one.

 

[Howllons-y]

"The weed of crime bears bitter fruit." "But it makes a pretty good milkshake."

I'm guessing that it's from a Sam & Max game? One of the more recent ones?

Okay, here's my three quotes to guess:

"Go legally brain-dead from lack of oxygen due to choking on my whole ass!!"

"The flow of time is always cruel; its speed seems different for each person, but no one can change it. A thing that does not change with time is a memory of younger days."

"I think I broke my skull! I'm all skull!"

 

[Canadamus Prime]

"Oh Great. I'm stuck in Colonial Times, Tentacles are taking over the world, and now the toilet's backing up."

Close enough - it's not from a newer one though.

"Oh Great. I'm stuck in Colonial Times, Tentacles are taking over the world, and now the toilet's backing up."

Ah that's easy peasy. Day of The Tentacle.

"I think I broke my skull! I'm all skull!"

Curse of Monkey Island. (Murray The Invincible Demonic Skull) "Is it a really evil looking doorstop?" lol

New line: "A mage is like a wizard only not as cool."

 

[Canadamus Prime]

"Oh Great. I'm stuck in Colonial Times, Tentacles are taking over the world, and now the toilet's backing up."

Ah that's easy peasy. Day of The Tentacle.

Yeah, I didn't think that'd be a hard one.

 

[Drathnoxis]

"The flow of time is always cruel; its speed seems different for each person, but no one can change it. A thing that does not change with time is a memory of younger days."

Ocarina of Time? Something Sheik says? I want to say before she teaches you the Minuet of Forest. That's my guess anyway.
