Favorite in-game dialogue

Anything the guards say in the Thief games.
I was going to post this. That one guard that shouts "You've gone to far this time!" is my favorite. That voice actor is putting his all in screaming those insults.

Almost anything from vampire the masquerade
Fat Larry is my man. I loved listening to all the radio ads and calls in that game too.
 
I wouldn't call it dialog, but honorable mention to Duke3D.

Damn, those alien bastards are gonna pay for shooting up my ride!
 
The Earth Defense Force games, being essentially playable homages to B movies, are full of amazing dialogue

But I think my absolute favorite is from Earth Defense Force 5
After dealing with insects "aggressive monsters" the size of buildings and flying saucers, landing ships come in, dropping armed aliens

MISSION CONTROL: "We have a reported sighting of humanoid aliens."
COMMANDER: "Humanoid aliens?"
MISSION CONTROL: "Extraterrestrial beings, similar to humans."
COMMANDER: "You mean aliens that look like humans?"
MISSION CONTROL: "One head, two eyes, with hands and feet, bipedal."
COMMANDER: "Almost identical to humans. This is unbelievable."
SOLDIER: "It's the alien infantry unit!"
SOLDIER: "Aliens have finally landed on Earth!"
SOLDIER: "Are they aliens?! They look like humans!"
COMMANDER: "They look just like humans. The resemblance is... unbelievable."

And later, when actual humanoid (thin gray man) aliens appear, "THEY DON'T LOOK LIKE HUMANS AT ALL" and "aliens that aren't humanoid" https://youtu.be/9m5Pl5m_vic

Very normal humanoid indeed

My favourite gag in the entire Dead Rising franchise, from 4:

"I've covered wars, you know!"
"Which ones?"

Frank immediately changes the subject. It's so stupid, but I love it. That the series has gone on for so long without the answer ever being alluded to cracks me up for some reason.

>They're sick, degenerate folks known as "furries." They'll dress up in their cute little bunny suits with holes cut in them for their penises to stick out, and they pound each others' heinies, making weird-ass animal noises.

GTA IV released in 2008. I'm pretty sure the in-game radio calls were recorded from a real life hotline anyone could call into around 2007. Aged really well though...

Back when Fallout villains weren't just a parade of Human supremacists or a choice between 4 weakly characterized pseudoantagonists


Another criminally underutilized IP although they'd probably find some way to screw it up now so maybe its for the best


BG

Technically not from video games but AC has some bangers.
