Precision F-Strike/Video Games

"Axel: Now, Sora! Naminé! Riku! Marluxia! Larxene! It's about time you gave me one hell of a show!"
 * The one time Artyom speaks in Metro 2033 is when he yells "guhhh-fffFUCK" when he notices that a derailed train is about to crush him into the ground.
 * The Metal Gear series is very low on swearing, so the one F-bomb in Metal Gear Solid 4 is a laser guided Precision F Strike indeed. Delivered by what turns out to be, "It's all so FUCKING HYSTERICAL!!!" manages to creep you like you wouldn't believe.
 * Especially considering the creepy nature of the boss fight, against an enemy who uses stealth against you. Cue the nightmares.
 * In the Japanese released, the award goes to EVA in Metal Gear Solid 3, who, when cornered by Big Bad Volgin, broke out the Gratuitous English to snarl 'fuck you' before trying to shoot at him with a concealed gun. In the English version, the line was changed to the more innocuous 'go to hell' - although it was saved by the voice actress's delivery.
 * At the apex of the story in Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories (a Disney game), Axel rewards himself with one of these for a job well done, although it was rewritten into a different, F Strike-less line in the PS 2 version.

"BLU Scout: What are you, the President of his fan club?
 * In Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep, Maleficent gets to reference her "powers of hell" line for the first time in the series.
 * In Mega Man 7, Bass throws in a rather unexpected "damn" in a dialogue toward the end of Shade Man's stage. Mild by the standards of a T-rated game, but it was quite surprising in a KA-rated SNES game. Too bad it was taken out in the Anniversary Collection.
 * Mega Man X had a couple "damn"s in the early games, which were kept in the X Collection. Although the fourth game missed its chance by having a late boss character shout, "See you in the underworld!" rather than the less unwieldy "See You in Hell!"
 * In the X Collection, one "damn" (from X no less) was actually added for some reason.
 * Mega Man Battle Network 2 also has one, when, after you defeat MagnetMan, and expose as the hijacker, he lets out a rather unexpected "Damn it to hell!"
 * MMBN2 had several other times incidences as well, unlike the rest of the series. Oh, and the guy wasn't hijacking the plane, he was trying to crash it.
 * Example using mild swears: despite being rated T, Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance almost always uses words like "blast" and "dastard". Ike only says "damn" if he dies (which is also Game Over).
 * In Gradius V, if you lose your last life after having gone through 6 stages on a single credit, the announcer exclaims, "What the hell?"
 * In Half-Life 2, Dr. Breen, ever the the classy and intelligent villain, never stating so much as a "darn," let's out a loud and clear "Oh, shit!" when he sees Gordon and Alyx are close behind him during his conversation with an Advisor.
 * The same game brings us Barney Calhoun, the Ensemble Darkhorse. "Hey! When you see Breen, tell him I said "'F(* crash* ) you!'"
 * Although the crash sound censors Barney's swearing, it's still audible in the game files.
 * In Team Fortress 2's "Meet the Spy" the BLU spy drops a Yo Momma Joke, quickly followed by a (censored) F Strike. Since the Spy has always been the picture of sophistication, these two combine to be absolutely hilarious.

BLU Spy: ...No. That would be your mother. *produces compromising pictures of the Scout's mother and the RED Spy*

BLU Scout: What the?...

BLU Spy: Indeed. And now he's here to f*ck us! So listen up, boy, or pornography starring your mother will be the second worst thing to happen to you today."


 * Doubles at making the Spy Sophisticated As Hell.
 * In Castlevania Order of Ecclesia, the third boss in the game consists of a gigantic crab that the heroine Shanoa must fight all the way up a lighthouse. At the top, Shanoa gets into an elevator, tells the crab to "go to Hell," rides the elevator all the way down, crushing the crab. This is made all the more awesome by the line appearing as a sound bite rather than as a text box.
 * It bears mention that the original Japanese phrase ("Jigoku ni ochiro.") translates to "Fall into Hell." and, when used in its entirety, is at least somewhat less offensive than its English equivalent.
 * Also in Castlevania: Castlevania Judgment has one of Grant's "damn"age grunts be a certain four-letter word. Can you guess what it is?
 * 1213 has exactly one piece of profanity, and in the special edition commentary, Yahtzee makes note of how it emphasises how absolutely pissed off the guy saying it is:

"Sylvanas Windrunner: (to Arthas in Warcraft III) Give my regards to hell, you son of a bitch!
 * The War Craft games don't shy away from milder curses like "damn" or "hell", but the harsher ones can still be surprising:

(After being scolded by Garithos in Warcraft III) Dwarf Rifleman: They did not pay us enough to put up with that arsehole

Kael'thas Sunstrider: (in WoW) Insolent son of a... let's get this over with! (he came close to making one)

Garrosh Hellscream: (to Sylvanas in WoW): Watch your clever mouth, bitch."


 * In the X68000 version of Thunder Force II, losing your last life causes the player character to shout "Shit!"
 * In The White Chamber, though she uses other swear words throughout the game,
 * In the final moments of Modern Warfare 2, you, as, get stabbed in the chest by , whom you've been chasing for the majority of the last mission. As you stir, he gives you his Motive Rant, starting:


 * From Don Pachi: "WARNING: This is not similation. Get ready to destoroy the enemy. Target for the weak points of f**kin' machine. Do your best you have ever done."
 * In the Japanese version of Real Bout Fatal Fury Special, good-natured Franco Bash's win quote against Geese Howard is "Fuckyou! Geese!"
 * In the Japanese audio for Sonic Adventure, Sonic says "shit" once. Translated to something along the lines of "darn" in the American version.
 * Though it's not as vulgar as the other examples on this page, there IS one moment from the normally G-rated language Final Fantasy VIII that deserves a mention. When one minor character very NEARLY kills another by accident (by hanging him with a fishing line, no less), the almost-victim understandably berates his idiotic pal, finishing up by calling him "DUMBASS!" Complete with red text and a slashing sound as the word as said, to drive home the point that yes, this is as foul as the language is going to get. Maybe they were trying to avoid what happened with Final Fantasy VII.
 * FFVIII has two other notable instances. One is when Zone, one of Those Two Guys, lays into Squall for letting Rinoa get hurt: "YOU SON OF A BITCH!" the other is when Squall and party overhear fatherly and normally ineffectual Headmaster Cid arguing with Garden Master NORG:

"Shepard: I'm the only thing between you and a bullet in the head.
 * In ''Dissidia Final Fantasy', Tidus calls Jecht a "self centered old bastard".
 * Mass Effect 2: "Don't fuck with Aria."
 * Sidonis also drops one after you tell him that Garrus is trying to put a bullet in his head.

Sidonis: Fuck."

"Shepard: I'm sorry, I'm having trouble hearing you. Getting a lot of bullshit on this line."
 * Also, if you play as a paragon Shepard,

"Shepard: Do whatever you want with your toy ships! But leave my crew out of your political BULLSHIT!"
 * And if you've got enough points to make the Renegade speech at Tali's trial:

"Kal'Reeger: Tali's done more for this fleet than you assholes ever will!"
 * And in the same incident, Kal'Reeger if he's still alive.

"Tali" I'm looking for my father you bosh'tet!"
 * And again during Tali's trial, Tali herself combines this with Pardon My Klingon.

"Udina: -- Do the words "political shitstorm" mean anything to you?"
 * Udina's entrance if Anderson was picked to the Council

": You tell me that code, and maybe we can work out a deal for you.
 * Similarly, in Fallout 3, if you've been playing with positive karma, you get the opportunity to pull one off

The Lone Wanderer: Fuck you. I'm not telling you anything.


 * I'll be honest. I'm running out of patience here, and I'm not looking to play games with you. You tell me that code, or it's going to cost you.

The Lone Wanderer: No, seriously. Fuck you."

"Burnt Skeleton's placard: We're dying out here, motherfuckers!"
 * You can say this with negative karma, but it doesn't have that same OOMF to it as it does with positive karma.
 * The game manages to switch from oppressive underground dictatorship to sprawling Crapsack World world with one simple sentence.

"Bayonetta: Don't fuck with a witch."
 * Ace Attorney has Miles Edgeworth pull around one "What the hell[...]?" per game, often a Crowning Moment of Funny.
 * Ace Attorney Investigations has Shi-Long Lang's "! You BASTARD!"
 * Starcraft plays both sides of this trope. Units will frequently refer to "chicken-[beep] outfits" and not having time to "f[beep]k around", but in cutscenes "shit" and the like are thrown uncensored whenever it's deemed dramatic enough.
 * Remember Kerrigan calling herself the queen bitch of the galaxy? The (unofficial) hungarian version made her the Fuckin' Queen of the galaxy.
 * Bayonetta, surprisingly, as Bayonetta herself actually doesn't swear much in-game.

"Sazh: Hurry the what up?"
 * In Final Fantasy XIII, Sazh's baby pet Chocobo actually pulls one of these off when "", which Sazh can easily translate.

"Sam: Looking for me asshole?"
 * "But you have told them my last code, damn you book, I'm ready to explode!"
 * Fail at Item Crafting with Claude in the Star Ocean the Second Story and you'll be treated to a nice, hammy "DAMNIT!!!"
 * Some of the characters in Killer7 let these out after hitting a Heaven Smile's weak spot - young punk Con Smith jubilantly shouts "FUCK you!" and shady thief Coyote Smith snarls, "You're fucked." Depending on how good the player is at hitting the Smiles' weak points, this can quickly turn into a Cluster F-Bomb.
 * Henry Townshend of Silent Hill 4 have a "What the hell?" which is used repeatly around the first part of the game.
 * Heather from Silent Hill 3, right when Claudia plan is about to come to fruition: "SHUT YOUR STINKING MOUTH, BITCH!".
 * Earlier, when the amusement park changes into its nightmare version, "Oh hell!"
 * From Braid: "Now we are all sons of bitches."
 * In Primal, when Jen encounters her first demon, she slowly looks up his body and to his face and summarizes her emotions with one heartfelt "Ohh... shit!"
 * Sam Fisher of Splinter Cell hardly ever curses, which is particularly noticable in Conviction, where he's pitted against Mooks who prefer ClusterFBombs So, throughout the game he has a few that really stand out, particularly when he tells people to go fuck themselves.
 * In Malta, having no family left, his agency wanting to kill him, trying to find a reason to go on, Sam is pursued by thugs hired by a drug and arms dealer to kill him. After easily (and brutally) taking care of the Mooks, he finds the leader who tried to run away, but ran into a dead end in a bathroom.

"Tom Reed:
 * In a Flash Back mission during the Gulf War, Sam is captured by (presumably) Ba'athist soldiers and is interrogated by two men, and apparently of the English those two men have learned, half are vulgar terms. When they threaten to Electric Torture Sam, his only response is a quiet, gruff "Go fuck yourselves. I'll be here when you're done." For maximum effect, barge in and rescue Sam right after this point, but right before they start torturing him.
 * Then there's this exchange.

Sam: (still calm) Fuck you, Reed."

"Karis: Wow... graphic!"
 * The English version of Golden Sun Dark Dawn has the Heroic Mime drop one of these in the form of Symbol Swearing.
 * And if there was such thing as a Stealth F-Strike, try using the Angry emote after

" : What do you get when you cross a bullet and a pretty little intelligence officer?
 * In Persona 3 Portable, Stepford Smiler Saori casually uses an S-strike at one point, just to see what it feels like to say whatever she wishes. Given that her S-Link keeps steadily rolling downhill, the poor girl's probably due a few of these.
 * Persona 4 gives the main character a chance to say "Calm the hell down!" during a particularly... tense... moment  The protagonist can curse several times throughout the game, but the delivery of this is what makes it especially poignant; He YELLS and gets visibly angry for the first, and only, time in the entire game.
 * Assassin's Creed II delivers a perfect Precision F-Strike combined with a massive Mind Screw after  What. The. Fuck?! indeed...
 * Ezio tells  "Go fuck yourself."
 * In Rainbow Six: Vegas 2, when Big Bad  taunts you about Joanna being shot.

Bishop: Fuck you."

"Go to hell, you son of a bitch!"
 * In Resident Evil 5 Chris Redfield has a pretty good one towards the end, when : "I've had enough... of your BULLSHIT!!"
 * In Devil May Cry 4, when fighting  one of the things Nero will say when using the Devil Bringer is "I'm not interested in your bullshit!", with a punch to the face for effect.
 * One of the things Nero says when doing a D Td Buster on an Alto Angelo sounds a lot like "fuck you!", but this is somewhat debateable since it's not as easy to make out as the above one.
 * In Baten Kaitos Origins, Sagi, normally a Nice Guy, will drop these whenever he gets really pissed off.

"Marisa: Bitch, get out of the way!"
 * Touhou 8: Imperishable Night, stage 4 with Marisa/Alice. Due to a bad misunderstanding, best friends Reimu and Marisa wind up having an actually for serious fight, and we know things got real when Marisa tells Reimu:

"Example A: What the eff, guys? Just because Mommy can be a psycho-bitch on occasion doesn't mean you have to cast a sociopath!
 * While anyone would have a clean mouth compared to Ragna the Bloodedge, Prof. Kokonoe, and Hazama (all from Blaz Blue), Makoto Nanaya's choice of language indicates that [A] something is really not right or [B] she's not happy with you. That said, she is more prone to swearing when [C] by herself.

Example B: Shut the hell up! We were never tools, you stupid asshole!

Example C: If Tsubaki were here, she'd give me such shit for sleeping in the middle of an important mission... never mind that I'm on an aircraft and can't do crap, anyway..."

""Imbeciles! Don't they realize what that shitty little cur is capable of...?""
 * Likewise, you know Valkenhayn is angry when his language goes bad (anything regarding Terumi fouls his mood real quick).

"He was a better man than you'll ever know. You say one more word about him and I will blow your fucking head off!"
 * In Katawa Shoujo, a few examples come up.
 * never swears at all, but late in her route, she says "Dammit!", a symptom of her pent-up anger over.
 * Hisao tends to use some profanity in his narration, but the most vulgar he gets is when dissatisfied with his relationship with at one point, says he thinks they're "friends who happen to fuck".
 * Late in route, Hisao, venting his frustrations with his girlfriend, responds to her with "Bullshit" before verbally tearing into her.
 * Cole Phelps in LA Noire loses it when his crooked ex-partner  snidely insults the dead.
