There is bad dialogue in all games and it comes in different forms. Here are some examples of bad and cheesy bits.

In Time Crisis on the first boss you have a to defeat a group of claw men. When you have defeated the main one you pick him up and he says, 'The girl is at the top of the tower. She must be dead by now.' Then you punch him and he falls to the ground. That is so cheesy.

In the opening scene to Devil May Cry, a lady comes in on a bike. That's alright, but Dante says, 'Whoo, whoo. Slow down babe,' and then he says 'If nature calls it's in the back, okay.' The lady throws her bike at him and then Dante gets his guns and says, 'Let's rock!' This is awful. Surely the developers can come up with better dialogue than this.

Another dialogue problem occurs in ISS International Soccer on the commentary. If you tackle someone outside the penalty area and the referee doesn't blow his whistle, but the commetator thinks it's a foul, he normaly says, 'That's surely a penalty.' Are you blind? Do you understand the rules of football? I dont think so!

In Yoshi's Story when you complete a level the Yoshi crew come on and sing a little baby song which is so irritating.
Tell me if you know any bad bits in video games or cheesy bits.

I know what you mean, Soldier Of Fortune was FULL of it

Sam - "This is your new partner, Taylor"

Mullins - "Taylor" *acknowledging her*

Taylor - "Mullins"

And that was it, they walk off, and it was the end of the game

The coolest ISP ever!
In my opinion, the ISP is the best I have ever used. They guarantee 'first time connection - everytime', which they have never let me down on.
Everybody thinks I am an IT genius...
Nothing but admiration. I have been complimented on the church site that I manage through you and everybody thinks I am an IT genius. Your support is unquestionably outstanding.
