I've heard "I...w..was beaten...by YOU?!?!" in so many games I've found it irritating and stupid. And honestly it's in a bunch of games, usually following a boss battle. The most recent one I heard it in was Castlevania: Lament of Innocence. Which gets away with it because otherwise it's an amazing game.

There are a lot of RPGs that let you choose your own dialogue. One thing that grinds my gears is when the game developers can't think of anything more intelligent for your character to say other than "What do you mean?" and it's always to a really obvious statement or question. Exposition is one thing but don't make me feel like an idiot while listening to it.The Knights of the Old Republic series does this a lot and I cringe every time I see such a line. Especially when there are no other options.

Most stupid piece of dialog? I would say the quote from spyro that repeats itself... "aHA!!! no...........aHA!! no....." etc..... It keeps repeating itself over and over again! It drives me insane to hear it.

The first thing that I can think of is in Chrono Trigger, mostly Gaspar, since his English translation made him seem like he was saying things that he wasn't.Example: "One of you is close to somebody who needs help. Find this person...fast."What it was supposed to be (paraphrasing, I don't recall the exact wording):Each one of you is close to somebody that needs your help. Find these people fast.Or when they said that Magus was Schala's brother and then said he was her step-brother, then back to brother again.Or the fact that in Geno Dome Robo is called R-66Y rather than R66-Y. Little things like that just bother me for some stupid reason.

0_0 I don't know how you could miss a qoute so often. The fighting gym leader in g/s/c does mock the lines (by using strength by himself), but you're telling me that you never noticed the NPC dialogue being ".....you're so strong!" or "I underestimated your power" or anything because I specifically remember seeing it a lot from Pokemon games. I was playing it yesterday and saw it in the Battle Tower.I can't recall ever having read that "You're so strong!" dialogue in either digimon nor pokemon games.And I agree with Suspect TC, some game developers make npcs repeat the dialogue so many times its not even funny especially when it comes to mmorpgs

That's a priceless onein my opinion the stupidest piece of dialog is from resident evel"Here is a lockpick. It might be useful if you, the master of unlocking, take it with you"
. I love "That was close! You were almost a Jill Sandwich."

Nearly every "Brotherly love conquers all!" speech at the end of every Megaman Battle Network game for the GBA.Also, I've never played it, but I've heard some jokes about Castlevania: Lament of Innocence for the PS2, where there's a boss who screams "Beat Me!" while powering up to fight the main character. Creative.

I think Resident Evil 1 when barry is pointing to the blood"What... What is this?" when it was obvious that it was blood. I thought that was stupid but hilarious.Don't forget his famous line "You almost were a Jibble sandwich!" lolol:Ish: that was really stupid but hilarious

the worst pieces of dialogue have to come from runescape, both human and NPCs. ultimately, when someone is supposed to help you they come with random bull. also, when you play games like counter strike or CoD online people say: "Haha I just pawned you" "Way to point out the obvious, but im still walking" Its like "Shut up fools, coz i just grenaded both of you 
"but the worst line came from S.T.A.L.K.E.R Clear Sky:[Guy gets ripped up by a monster with tentacles on its face in front of you] NPC one: "Oh, what was that! I think it was a monster!"NPC two: "I don't know, I didn't see it clearly" (Oh really, coz it was 1 metre away from you and mauling your buddy for 10 seconds)My custom dialogue: "You've been here for 3 years and can't figure out that was a monster?!... pfftt"

RuneScape is definitely up there with worst dialogue. But Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin, from your fight with Death:Jonathan Morris: I may not have the whip's power, but I can still kick your a$$!

Dude MGS's dialogue does NOT suck. It's the only reason that I can freakin' understand the storyline!On topic, worst dialogue I've ever heard was from Sonic Heroes. Terrible voice acting AND lines, the only reason I continue to play it is because of the gameplay.For me, the stupidest dialog ever must be in mgs1, or mgs2...or 3, I can't choose, those games make me loaf every time

This isnt exactly stupid but really annoying. When playing on Star Trek Leagcy and trying to destroy the other ships and they keep on saying shields are down sir and firing phasers sir. JUST SHUT IT!!!!!!!
