Here are the top 5 Best Game Video Quotes from msnbc.com:

Do you agree with this list, or are there other video game quotes that you think should have made the list?

I'm disappointed that they used the burger quote instead of "Are you a bad enough dude to rescue the president?" I don't get the GTA quote, either.

Well, at least All Your Base didn't get included in the top five.

"A winner is you" should have been on there. ;D

"Game over, yeah!" should have been on that list. The "Thank you Mario" quote was unquestionably epic though!

I've heard of that quote! "All your base are belong to us!"

I nearly threw my controller the first time I played Super Mario Bros. 3. Got to the end, defeated Bowser, and what do I get? "Sorry, the princess is in another castle!" Argh! :muttering:

Thats rather depressing. You think that I'd have heard at least one of those quotes, I mean, come on, it can't be the best if I havent heard of it. XD

The best GameOver screen was actually on a NES game. It was either Friday the 13th or Nightmare on Elm Street.
All it said was "You and your friends are dead."

Screwed up game but great GameOver screen.

I've heard about that one, even though I've never played the game...I think it's Friday the 13th that you're thinking of. It's almost depressing to have a game over screen like that. But really, when it comes to game over/death screens, I like the 'I'm finished!' game over screen in Kid Icarus, and in the sequel that is accompanied by Pit turning into an angel and floating up towards heaven...there's something redundant about that...XD

[face=Times New Roman]Most of the examples cited are unintentionally amusing. In the same category is this quote from "Chrono Trigger":

Crono’s mother: Crono! You had me so worried! I heard you were to be executed, dear. Stop scaring me like that!

This had me cringing because (1) it was so anticlimactic; (2) his mother did not put in an appearance at the trial or visit him in jail; and (3) she evidently wasn’t worried enough to do anything to help him. Leave that to his nerdy friend Lucca.

For genuinely impressive quotes, Jade Curtiss ("Tales of the Abyss") gets my vote.

Jade: I'm sorry, but I'm afraid I'm not interested in mutual wound-licking. I have no intention of covering for someone, just because they've committed the same sin as I.

Or how about this exchange:

Luke: Man, do you have any pride?
Jade: None so cheap as to be shaken by something as petty as this, sir.

These could have made it into the Quotable Quotes column in Reader's Digest. Priceless.
