Whatcha need youngster?

The Master's quotes are OK too, but mostly because of the voice acting.

"There are two people in this world, people with guns, and people who dig."

Sorry if I'm stepping on your toes here, Archvile, but...

That quote is a dialogue option in the "Lloyd Quest" in New Reno. However, it is a pop-cultural reference/rip-off of a line used by Blondie (Clint Eastwood) in The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly.

May favorite quote...probably "I'm gonna reduce you to an undertaker's nightmare." That's one of Cassidy's Combat Taunts, and a reference to Wasteland.

"Why canÃƒâ€šÃ‚Â´t I be the important one for a change?" - Dane <---I donÃƒâ€šÃ‚Â´t know why, but that quoteÃƒâ€šÃ‚Â´s stuck in my head since the first time I played FO

Well then, I would have to go with "I'm gonna beat you like a red headed step child."

My favorites would have to be:
Fallout Tactics (quote from credits): "Push the f**king button!"
Fallout 2: (Cant remember exactly, but in Mariposa the mutant trying to make "Rat Surprise")

From FO: "You farted northwest?"
From FO2: "We and I be glad to answer" (It's the quote that comes to mind from the game most often.)
From the FO games in general: "Take the pain, motherfucker!"

Yup!

You'll also see some other things that are ripped off from Wasteland and/or Cassidy's combat taunts, like:

{<attacker> whaled the holy, howlin' tar out of <target> inflicting <amount_string>.}

Hey, I've been working w/FoT for so long that if I see "X dances to the rhythm of lead" one more time it's going to push me over the edge.

The Unity will bring above the Master Race. Master! Master. One able to survive, or even thrive, in the Wasteland. As long as there are differences, we will tear ourselves apart fighting each other. We need one race - Race! Race! - one goal - Goal! Goal! - one people to move forward to our destiny. Destiny.

I gotta mention the narrator. This is probably one of the most memorable Fallout quotes.

War. War never changes. The Romans waged war to gather slaves and wealth. Spain built an empire from its lust for gold and territory. Hitler shaped a battered Germany into an economic superpower. But war never changes. In the 21st century, war was still waged over the resources that could be acquired. Only this time, the spoils of war were also its weapons. Petroleum and uranium. For these resources, China would invade Alaska, the US would annex Canada, and the European Commonwealth would dissolve into quarreling, bickering nation-states, bent on controlling the last remaining resources on Earth. In 2077, the storm of world war had come again. In two brief hours, most of the planet was reduced to cinders. And from the ashes of nuclear devastation, a new civilization would struggle to arise. A few were able to reach the relative safety of the large underground Vaults. Your family was part of the group that entered Vault Thirteen. Imprisoned safely behind the large Vault door, under a mountain of stone, a generation has lived without knowledge of the outside world. Life in the Vault is about to change

War. War never changes...Life in the[organization/location] is about to change...

Ever noticed that every FO game's intro has these elements? There is also a nuke cinematic in every game, too...

Yep. I also like it how they always have "Fallout" appear, then fade in the "2" or "Tactics"

Laughed my arse off when I saw that in Fo2, and laughed even more when I saw it in Tactics.

Yeah, I remember appreciating that little touch, too. The Brian Fargo presents was nice too, if quite inaccurate. Sure, he published it, but I would have put Tim Cain's name there.

Fo2: Wow. I feel as if my expirence has reached some arbitrary level and I have become stronger!
Fo: A donut, the narrator, everything from the Master, Harold and the Lt.
FoT: I only got the Preoria. I just found it hilarious that they set a mission in that suburban hellhole.
