Subject: most memorable dialogue

Which Halo game do you think has the most memorable dialogue? Whether it be a normal conversation written well, slightly comedic, crytic, mysterious, or tear jerking?

I was trying to think of something deep, but for some reason this one line has always stood out in my mind:

"The storm has masked out approach, and it should have their local battlenets in disarray. We have the element of surprise, for now."
-Ship Commander, approaching Heretic CP, Halo 2

Great way to set the mood for one of the most important levels of the Halo trilogy. Haven't actually heard that for two and a half years, but I still remember it word for word.

Halo 2, definitely. Dialogue such as "To give the Covenant back their bomb" and "Oh, I know what the ladies like" are forever burned into my brains, in a good way. But it weren't just the memorable lines, the dialogue had variety: it could be comedic, it could be emotional, it could be whatever was suitable at the moment. On the other hand, Halo 3 definitely has some of the funniest random combat dialogue. But Halo 2 definitely has the best general dialogue quality.

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

Halo 2, no competition at all.

"There are those who said this day would never come... what are they to say now?"

"To give the Covenant back their bomb."

"This is not your grave, but you are welcome in it."

"Arrogant creature! Your deaths will be instantaneous whilst we must suffer the progress of infinitude!"

"Halo - its divine wind will rush through the stars, propelling all who are worthy along the path to salvation."

"Oh, I know what the ladies like..."

"When we first joined the Covenant, we took an oath."

"According to our station, all without exception!"

"On the blood of our fathers, on the blood of our sons; we swore to uphold the Covenant."

"Even through our dying breath!"

"Those who would break this oath are Heretics, worthy of neither pity nor mercy! Even now they use our Lords' creations to broadcast their lies."

"We shall grind them into dust!"

"And continue our march to glorious salvation!"


Pretty much everything said by Rtas...

I love Halo and video games. I started a business called "70MGame", I setup LAN events, tournaments, and Midnight Launch Events. Check us out in the link below.

I grew up playing Halo CE and have never stopped loving it since. I have one of the biggest Halo collections you will ever see with the crown jewels being life size statues of Master Chief, Kat, and Emile. Im hoping to have the entire Noble Team soon as well as other Halo statues

"I need a weapon." - Master Chief, Halo 2
"Not Yet." - Master Chief, Halo 3
"So, you beat the Halo demo. No bad soldier, not bad at all. BUT ARE YOU READY TO TAKE THE NEXT STEP!? Halo: Combat Evolved! Buy one! Heck, buy two! Thats an order soldier!" - Sargent Johnson, Halo CE demo

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.
/slow clap for respect

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

Two dialogues come into mind always.

Graveminds chat with MC and the Arbiter in Halo 2.

And Cortana's and Master Chief's chat in the level Cortana in Halo 3.

"This is not your grave, but you are welcome in it." That's another great line. I don't know if you have seen the video that shows voice actor actually doing the line, but damn... he looks like he's being possessed. I always just figured that the Gravemind was a computer-tweaked voice.

Have to go with Sergeant Johnson here, although "Wake me...when you need me," had to have been my favorite. Sends shivers up my spine everytime I hear it.

This by far! Loved it.

Great Scott!

It's hard for me to choose between 2 and 3.

"Dear Humanity,
We regret being alien bastards. We regret coming to Earth. And we most definitely regret that the Corps just blew up our raggedy-ass fleet!"

"For us, the storm has passed... the war is over. But let us never forget those who journeyed into the howling dark and did not return. For their decision required courage beyond measure; sacrifice, and unshakable conviction that their fight... our fight, was elsewhere. As we start to rebuild, this hillside will remain barren, a memorial to heroes fallen. They ennobled all of us, and they shall not be forgotten."

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

"I have defied Gods and Demons."
"I am your shield, I am your sword."
"This is not your grave, but you are welcome in it."
"Well, I don't care if it's God's own anti-son-of-a-Blam! machine, or a giant hula-hoop, we are not gonna let them have it!"
"Dear Humanity, We regret being alien Blams! We regret coming to Earth. And we most definitely regret that the Corps just blew up our raggedy-Blam! fleet!"
