Obscure Gaming Quotes

Number 1
"Do you have a reserva... MARDRE DE DIOS IT'S EL POLLO DIABLO *guitars*"

Number 2
"You know what they say, to save the world, you have to push a few old ladies down some stairs."

Number 3
"I am an elemental spirit summoned with one desire, with one purpose... TO DRIVE!"

These certainly follow a theme...

And that theme is Grim Fandango.

Grim Fandango is one of the quotes. Not the entire theme though.

"Her name is Lily and she's very fond of flowers"

"WE WILL GAURD HER WITH OUR LIVES!"

Grim Fandango is one of the quotes. Not the entire theme though.

Ok, upon looking closer... the theme is Tim Schafer. The quotes are, in order: Psychonauts (more particularly, Black Velvetopia), Full Throttle (haven't played, but I assume so), and Grim Fandango.

"There once was a Dodge city maid
Who was a whore by trade
For a *nah nah nah nah*
She'd lie on her back
And let those cowboys have a poke at her craaaaack.

Then one day by surprise
Her belly began to riiiise
*bunch more lines i've forgotten*

 

[Deadmeatt]

"Prisoner 849 escaping"
This is probably too obscure, but its from what used to be a popular game.

I created an account just to answer this one, since I can't believe no one has done so yet: Unreal, when you first crawl under your busted-a*# prison cell door. Jees, I haven't played that game in probably a decade, yet I can still roughly remember what the computer's voice sounded like as it said this.


...Damnit, now I feel like playing Unreal again.

You're wrong, the second quote is from Day of the Tentacle.

It's a pity that your adventure ends here...

Darn it. Darn it all.

Ok, here's one (actually three, from the same game) for you:
"I believe it not!"
"This makes you feel like Popeye!"
"Thou art early, but we'll admit thee."

 

[Aidinthel]

I question your understanding of the word 'obscure'.

Anyway, Penny Arcade: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness.

Well, I quoted it on the second page and no one got it. It was a bit disheartening.

Shadowgate. I was playing that about a month ago on a flash games site.

ok then can you guess this tid bit from my childhood spent in many arcades...

" I... Can't..... Move...." BUT AMERICA STILL NEEDS YOUR HELP!!!!

 

[8bitsuperhero]

"That was fun, but only because this is the 22nd century. Kids who put hamsters in microwave ovens in my time get taken away from their parents and put up for adoption. So DON'T DO IT."

Can nobody get this? I'm disappointed.

That one, I believe is Day of the Tentacle right?

"I know! Find someone rich, and kill them! Then find someone richer, and kill them too! Hack and slash your way to fortune! Whoo-hoo!!"

"It's a typewriter. For those who are literate, it is a handy tool."

"...Well, that's one way to go out with a bang. So much for your dreams and aspirations."

Two are from the same game.

You've got me on that one. Is the part about America still needs your help part of the quote?

Captain America and the Avengers, of course.

OKAAAAAAY GOOOOOOO!


Here's my quote
"Bravery is not a function of firepower"

 

[Eclectic Dreck]

Hardly obscure but: "You are no longer welcome here, nuisance. Why do you stay, when you sense my displeasure? I have suffered your company long enough. It is time for our dance to end.".

A well known game but, given that most people assert that it was a bad game people may not have made it far enough to hear it: "I suppose we could see if she tries to kill any of us, but that test has numerous procedural flaws in its execution... if you will pardon the semantics."

 

[Sanguich]

Here's my one:
'You spoony bard!'

Final Fantasy IV

"I SPILL MY DRIK"

Deus Ex 1 - When you change sound settings in the options menu

"BWAHAHA! I am Moosferatu, the demonic jersey cow!"
