    Default The greatest..most catchy phrases in a video game?

    I'm honestly not sure if this topic has been covered in the past and I'm very sorry if it has but I was sitting here going through DP and one of my favorites came to mind.

    I will never forget being at the edges of Nevada with my family and stopping in what was the first Casino we had seen on our way to Vegas for a family get togethor. The place had a NICKEL arcade with maybe 10-15 games. Back then it didn't really matter how many games they had, I would play for hours and hours on one machine. For the first time in my life I ran in to a little game called "Smash TV" and instanly bacame a hardcore fan of it's crazy style but more importantly the addicting voice overs by the game show host. My brother and I must have gone through 20 rolls of nickles each. (I'm sure I went through more than him..I was the baby and maybe 8 years old back then )

    All I can say is...

    "BIG MONEY...BIG PRIZES..I LOVE IT!"


    Hahah...definetely was the goodies. One day I'll have that game in my house.

    Any good one's you can think of?

    The 'Santulli Slant' got it spot on when it commented on my favorite videogame quote, "I will destroy everything! I will create a monument to non-existence." (Kefka, Final Fantasy III [IV]) This and many of Kefka's other nugets rank high among videogame moments.


    But the real question, is Kefka Kafkaesque???
    I have my answer, but is it the only one?

    Smash makes me laugh when I think about it..It was so screwed up. ahaha The guy has all these cliched game show comments with his pair of game show hookers...with a big smile on his face while hundreds of people are dieing like its nothing.

    Eggcellent...

    You kind of have to have HEARD these for them to be funny, but here goes.

    They both come from TG-16 CD Roms; the first is from Y's III, Wanderers, where Chester is about to kick into the lava pit at the (alsaido? can't remember) ruins. Captain Obvious says to you "There is molten lava down there" [long pause] Continues threat... It's just really awkward sounding, sort of aprosodic speech like stroke patients or something...

    The second is one that me and my friend quote constantly, from Valis III. The first-level boss says: "Hey, Ask your sword, Yuko!"

    And I can't believe nobody mentioned "Let's play money making game" or "It's a secret to everyone".

    I use the phrase "It's a secret to everyone" (among many other phrases) in everyday conversation. Yeah, sad, I know.
