The title says it all. I'll start. If I can remember where the quote came from, I'll post it.

"To be defeated means to lose everything. Are you prepared for that?" -- Hawke from Advance Wars 2, before his Super CO power.

"I thought that you were different. But you're just like all the others. A dissapointment." -- Alucard from Hellsing.

"You're dog food, now." -- Alucard, same.

"'I hate magic-users,' one of the remaining goblins spat.
'That makes us even.' Brandon said. "I hate murderers, no matter what their species."' -- d20 Modern Handbook, Urban Arcana Chapter

"I'm erasing you." -- Indalecio, Star Ocean 2

This list would not be complete without mentioning the line that has been used to death in any game I've ever seen or heard of in the fantasy genre in the last two years.

[Drum Roll]

I've seen it used for turning attempts, trigger words for contingency, and blast 'em spells.

And of course, damn near anything from Search for the Holy Grail has been used at every gaming table I've ever sat at for any length of time.

"If I want your opinion, I'll beat it out of you!" - Something that I am fond of saying. One time I said it really loud, to my wife, in the middle fo a crowded supermarket. She yelled at me for that, she said we were getting strange looks. I really didn't notice any.

"Goddammit, I knew we should have opened the other door!"

The fighter in my game, except I doubt this is the first time this phrase was uttered by gamers, so I'll put it here.
