An enemy has been slain
Titanfall|2
Upon your Titan noticing a new weapon that's more powerful, the main character comments "I think someone's in love..."
BT's response is priceless.
BT-7274: "The human concept of love requires admiration, attraction, devotion, and respect. Conclusion: I am 50% in love."
"Trouble with the trolley, eh?"
"The end is near! TEN SECONDS NEAR!!"
"I'm selling these fine leather jackets" Indiana Jones "If you kill me you're better, if I kill you I'm better" Kuben Blisk "Suka blyat" - Random scav
"Sir. Finishing this fight" - Master chief, Halo 2 "STOP RIGHT THERE CRIMINAL SCUM" - Guard, Oblivion
THE NUMBERS, MASON
You're pretty good...
Definition: "Love" is making a shot to the knees of a target 120 kilometers away using an Aratech sniper rifle with a tri-light scope.
Statement: This definition, I am told, is subject to interpretation. Obviously, love is a matter of odds. Not many meatbags could make such a shot, and strangely enough, not many meatbags would derive love from it. Yet for me, love is knowing your target, putting them in your targeting reticule, and together, achieving a singular purpose... against statistically long odds.

This cannot continue.
"It is a good life we lead, brother."
"The best. May it never change."
"And may it never change us."
Assassin's Creed 2 still has the best intro of all time, fight me.
Man...
Front...
Two hundred metres.
Six.
Is down.
Arma (or Flashpoint before it). Although it's gotten slightly better in that regard, I think. Haven't run it in quite some time. It's still probably the best there is for milsims though.

My lord? Yes? My lord? Yes? Let's get digging! Whoa! What now?
- Hidden song made from sound effects in Lords of the Realm II
In the same vein
"Wha-wha wha-wha what do you want? Wha-wha wha-wha what do you want? Why do you keep touching me?
Daah buu daah buu"
The song from warcraft 1 or 2 or something.
I like when computer games used to have a hidden song. Especially when they made it so those songs would play if you put them in a cd player.
It also used to be a thing that some games would just have their sound track play if you put the disc in a cd player. An upside was that the music was all written to the first part of the disc, and the game data was written to the outer rings where it could be read faster on most drives for shorter install times.
"Switch to your other weapon, it's faster than reloading!"
I'd be a lot warmer and a lot happier with a belly full of mead.
"Remember, no Russian"
"I have a plan, Arthur"
"Pheromones." "Do I smell beef?"
"This is Pequod. Arriving shortly at LZ"
My source is that I made it the fuck up!
"Guess what! I've named a boil on my ass after you. It, too, bothers me every time I sit down."
-Gheed, Diablo 2.
- Your health is low. Do you have any potions, or food?
Same game, when you made the Guild Master drunk:
- I never forget faces, but in your case I'll make an exception hic
Paraphrasing there, don't remember the exact quote.
- It's dangerous to go alone, take this
Heard a few gems in STALKER 2 "Better a lousy peace than an awesome gunfight"
Greetings traveler, there are new missions available at the New Haven bounty board!
Good News Everyone!!!

Everything that lives is designed to end. We are perpetually trapped... in a never-ending spiral of life and death. Is it a curse? Or some kind of punishment? I often think about the god who blessed us with this cryptic puzzle... and wonder if we'll have the chance to kill him.
