Ad nauseam dialogue that you find charming as hell

[SamanthaSamantha's icon]

We have all been there...

We are playing our favorite game (usually an RTS, since they are the poster children for this sort of thing) and we hear our units spew the same 2-3 lines of dialogue every time we use them, largely to get some sort of confirmation that an order was acknowledged and will be carried out.

I personally find them all incredibly charming because, well, I don't feel like having deep philosophical conversations with my mass-produced, completely equal - and replaceable - isometric minions, but having them say SOMETHING back is usually a bit of a highlight for me, because they are really committed to the bid, especially when it's the most random BS.

Some of my favorites include:

"Technology!".

"Santiago! Guerra! A ellos!".

"I shall do it!".

You?

that one unit from starcraft classic yelling "Outstanding!!!!" after i ordered them to move 9 pixels to the right.

I cant remember if it was exactly that, or which unit it was, but it felt good!

My personal favorite is from No More Heroes 1, whenever you kill an enemy, they always cry out "MY SPLEEN" as they die.

From time to time i still remember quotes from Earthworm Jim like "Groovy!". "PLASMA", "Funky!", "Snot a problem", "YEEEEHAAAAWW", "Whoa, Nelly!", "I'm a Rocket Man!", "Whopee!", "Ammo!", "Let's Kick Cow", "Win! Win! Win! Me! Me! Me!", "Way Cool!" or the pain sounds that he makes.

The Half-Life scientist dialogues.

Someone found out that you can trigger their normal dialogue if you rush to the ones falling from the elevator, resulting in...

"AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

Hi, Gordon.

AAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!".
