A high majority of video game enthusiasts will agree that one of the most important things that makes a game quality is the scenario. In fact, the scenarios of the plays are so effective that sometimes a line in a play can guide a person in his bad life, make him laugh when he is sad, and even become a philosophy of life.
Each of these legendary game lines, some of which are entertaining, some depressing, some are guiding, some are long and some are short, are engraved in almost every player’s mind in some way and as we said. Maybe it had an impact on their life. We wouldn’t be exaggerating when we say that.
Of course mind-blowing you may not see every line here but rest assured we’ve compiled many of them here.
“Bravo Six, going dark.” – Captain Price, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare
In the trailer released in honor of the remake of the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare series in 2019, Captain Price’s words that gave us goosebumps: “Bravo Six, we’re turning off the radios.”
“Requiescat in pace.” – Ezio Auditore Da Firenze, Assassin’s Creed 2
The Latin phrase of Ezio Auditore Da Firenze, who made us love the Assassin’s Creed series, to send his targets out of this world when he killed them: “Rest in peace.”
“I’m afraid.” – Arthur Morgan, Red Dead Redemption 2
More than just a fictional character, our brother, Arthur Morgan, said to the nun towards the end of the play, which brought tears to our eyes: “I am scared.”
“It’s time to kick ass and chew bubble gum…and I’m all outta gum.” – Duke Nukem
Here is the line from the 1988 movie ‘They Live’ by the legend of Duke Nukem that we are dying to hear while playing: “Time to kick ass and chew gum… and I’m out of gum.”
“Would you kindly…” – Dr. Yi Suchong, Bioshock
In Bioshock, which makes you feel like you are living a novel rather than playing a game, the magic words that allow us to act when said to our character: “Could you please…”
“War… War never changes.” – Intro scene, Fallout
A chilling word in the opening scene of the 4th game of the Fallout series, where we try to survive after a war in which atomic bombs fly in the air: “War, war never changes.”
“Nothing is true, everything is permitted.” – Oath of Assassins, Assassin’s Creed
“When other people blindly follow the truth, remember: Nothing is true. When constrained by other people, morality or the law, remember: Everything is possible.”
“War is where the young and stupid are tricked by the old and bitter into killing each other.” – Niko Bellic, Grand Theft Auto IV
The painful definition of war of our brother Niko Bellic, who came to the USA from Eastern Europe in GTA 4, the darkest game of the GTA series, to live the ‘American dream’: “War is when fools and young are tricked into killing each other by the old and the ruthless.”
“Makarov… knows… Yuri…” – Soap MacTavish, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
The saddest moment of the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare series is the last advice of Captain Soap, whom we have known since the first game, to Price, whom he saw like his brother just before he died: “Makarov knows Yuri…”
“The right man in the wrong place can make all the difference in the world.” – Gordon Freeman, Half-Life 2
In Half-Life 2, one of the games that shape the course of FPS games, the meaningful word that the main villain G-Man said to our aggrieved scientist main character Gordon Freeman and really meant: “The right man in the wrong place can change everything in the world.”
“It is a good life we lead, brother.” – Federico Auditore, Assassin’s Creed 2
We talked about Ezio, who made us love the Assassin’s Creed series. Here is the legendary entrance scene of Assassin’s Creed 2, the game where we meet Ezio and his life story:
“Federico: We lead a good life, brother.
Ezio: The best. Never change.
Federico: And never change us.
Ubisoft presents: Assassin’s Creed 2”
“At the end of the day, as long as there are two people left on the planet, someone is gonna want someone dead.” – Sniper, Team Fortress 2
Although it is a game with goofy characters in general, one of the lines that makes you think when you hear it in Team Fortress 2: “Even if there are only two people left on the planet, at the end of the day, one will want the other dead.”
“The truth, Walker, is that you’re here because you wanted to feel like something you’re not: A hero.” – John Konrad, Spec Ops: The Line
(Don’t watch this video if you haven’t played Spec Ops: The Line.)
At the end of Spec Ops: The Line, one of the games that never got the fame it deserves and shows the true face of war, Konrad’s crucial line to our main character, Walker: “The truth is, Walker, you’re here to feel like something you’re not: a hero.”
“Soap trusted you, I thought I could too. So why in bloody hell does Makarov know you?” – Captain Price, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
Right after we lost Soap in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, Captain Price pounces on our main character Yuri for the last words of Soap, whom he sees as his son, and says: “Soap trusted you, and I thought I could. Then why does Makarov know you?”
“Did I ever tell you the definition of insanity?” – Vaas Montenegro, Far Cry 3
In Far Cry 3, which many Far Cry fans call ‘the last good game in the series’, Vaas, perhaps one of the best-written villains in the game world, refers to Einstein: “Did I ever tell you the definition of insanity? Insanity is doing something over and over and expecting different results. This is madness.”
“Oh shit, here we go again…” – Carl Johnson, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
Returning home from his 5-year Liberty City adventure after hearing the news of his mother’s death, Carl Johnson’s line that we all memorize is now: “Shit, here we go again.”
“Hey you! You’re finally awake.” – The man in the car, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Another line that is in the memory of the player community is from Skyrim, the 5th game of The Elder Scrolls series, which we have been waiting for a sequel for years: “Hey you! You’ve finally woken up.”
“Remember: No Russian.” – Makarov, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, Price asks Yuri, ‘Why does Makarov know you?’ The first line of the mission, which we see the truth of the event after he asks, makes it feel like a crime against humanity, even in the game: “Remember: there is no Russian.”
“Mr. Salieri sends his regards.” – Vito Scaletta & Joe Barbaro, Mafia
The Mafia line that stuck like a bullet when we realized that the murder of Tommy, which we played in the first game, was by our main characters in the second game: “Mr Salieri sends his regards.”
And then Tommy adds: “Remember: Money, work, and even your closest friends pass by. But family… Family goes on forever.”
“Fifty thousand people used to live here, now it’s a ghost town.” – Cpt. MacMillan, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare
Perhaps the most iconic and memorable line in the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare series is the legendary line from the mission: “Look here. 50,000 people used to live here, now it’s a ghost town. I have never seen anything like it.”
