    Halo chatter always does it for me. my favorite being from the first one, when one of the command sargents are providing cover against superior numbers.

    "Ok people we've go company coming, lets set the table".

    in context it's absolutely badass.

    I love this one from Battlefield: Bad Company single player:

    After you get shot badly:

    "How many fingers.....do you have left?"

    hehe, that game has some great dialogue between Haggard and Sweetwater, and their little skits in the background whilst sarge is on the radio are great little bits of humour.

    Actually...

    I dunno...maybe I'm expecting another Cod4...y'know? Cos I wasn't bowled over by that stuff at all, aside from that one line which made me laugh, I thought the "comedy" was completely misplaced in the middle of firefights, and intense wars. For all the cool destruction and devastation that you can cause in the game, the constant use of "comedy" (not inverted commas) throughout made me cringe a lot of the time....case in point: "this is bad, real bad" - "as bad as Kris Kristofferson's third album?"..."no...worse..."...I just though it was really misplaced, and didn't laugh at all really...they could've dumped all of that stuff, added a score beyond a country and western theme and added some intensity and it would have rivalled that of Cod4, but it took a totally different and childish direction.

    I guess it was to differentiate between BFBC and COD4, as it already shares a lot of similarities....but I was just screaming out for a cinematic, intense experience and was instead met with a lot of bad comedy which didn't make me chuckle really...aside from that one line...

    I dunno...I felt the single player was well tacked on...a shame really...but that's just my opinion in all it's humbleness, I'm glad it struck a note with you

    But Bad Company isn't supposed to be serious, it's supposed to be a videogame equivalent of Kelley's Heroes...

    Funny you should mention that specific quote, that's one of my favourite exchanges in COD2 as well ... not sure why, but it always stuck with me. I must replay COD2 again some time actually. That was a quality game.

    COd2 is one of my favourite games of all time...I think that scene is powerful because it feels so damn real...its not particularly spectacular in what's being said but the way it's executed is plain awesomness!
