Line 285:
** Durandal himself gets an awesome, albeit odd one in the first game:
{{quote|"Give me a D! Give me a U! Give me an R! Give me an A! Give me an N! Give me a D! Give me an A! Give me an L! What's it spell? Durandal? No. ''Durandal? No!'' T-R-O-U-B-L-E!"}}
* ''[[StarcraftStarCraft]]''
{{quote|'''Kerrigan:''' I am the Queen of Blades, and my stare alone would reduce you to ash!}}
** Also
Line 308:
** Shanoa gets another one in ''[[Castlevania]]: [[Harmony of Despair]]'', when revived after being killed.
{{quote|'''Shanoa''': "Hell could never hold me."}}
* ''[[Wild ArmsARMs]]'':
{{quote|'''Mother''': "I am Mother, Queen of the Demon Race... I have brought countless star systems to an end, each full of life... I am the messenger of death. Beings of life! Do you come here for judgement? Do you seek the glory of being devoured by a being of such eminence?"}}
** She has a much longer one in [[The Remake]] as well...
Line 340:
{{quote|"My body is a sword, and this place, a burial ground. Those who wish to die, come forth!"}}
* "I have bested [[Killer Rabbit|fruit]], [[Spikes of Doom|spike]] and [[Bad Moon Rising|moon]]! And now I will best you, [[I Wanna Be the Guy|The Guy!]]"
* At the climax of ''[[Mega Man X]] 2'', we are treated to [[Badass|Zero's]] subtle little boast, {{spoiler|just freshly [[Back Fromfrom the Dead]] to}} destroy a pitifully weak clone of his that [[Big Bad|Sigma]] made.
{{quote|''Sigma, you should have studied the blueprints closer. There is only one Zero!''}}
* In the ''[[Jak and Daxter]]'' series, [[Weasel Mascot|Daxter]] has a habit of doing this ''all the time''. But it's important to note that, starting in the [[Your Mileage May Vary|second or third]] game, [[Took a Level Inin Badass|this]] [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass|started]] [[Badass|to]] [[Pint-Sized Powerhouse|change]].
* In the Quake-engine RPG ''[[Anachronox]]'', Sly Boots has one near the end of the game, at the second part of a boss fight after the antagonist has been chased into a second room.
{{quote|"You know what the difference is between you, and the you five minutes ago? The you five minutes ago had ''five minutes to live''!}}
Line 375:
** Jecht is promoted to a [[Braggart Boss]] in ''[[Dissidia Final Fantasy]]'', so he gets a lot of these. One of his victory quotes is: "There's no shame in losin' to ''me''!"
** In Tidus' story mode, Jecht [[Punched Across the Room|punches him twenty feet backwards into a wall]] and nonchalantly remarks: "Look what happens when I don't hold back!"
* In ''[[Blaz BlueBlazBlue]]'', Hakumen starts his fights with this:
{{quote|"I am the white void. I am the cold steel. I am the just sword. With blade in hand I shall reap the sins of this world and cleanse it the the fires of destruction! I am Hakumen! The end has come!"}}
** Hell, making Badass Boasts is like Hakumen's ''favorite thing.''
Line 467:
* After one mission in [[Advance Wars|Advance Wars: Black Hole Rising]], Nell asks Max if he's alright. Max's reply is that his troops "eat this stuff for breakfast".
* [[Rift|Dacia]] [[Badass Normal|Ultan]] has claimed more trophies than some entire tribes. And only let her quarry escape once.
* [[EarthboundEarthBound|Giygas]] would have had a pretty cool one, but {{spoiler|he was absolutely insane at the time}}, so {{spoiler|Porky}} had to give one for him.
** In [[Mother 3]], {{spoiler|Porky Minch}} gets some pretty cool lines:
{{quote|{{spoiler|Porky}}: Let me fill you in on something. No matter how much you attack me, I'll never die. Even if I somehow wind up beaten, I'll never die. Bet you didn't know that, did you?}}
