* Zyzyx from ''[[Sacrifice]]'', who incidentally is voiced by Rob Paulsen, the same man who voiced Morte above. Amongst the gods, Stratos can also get rather sarcastic at times, and good ol' boy James displays a surprisingly dry wit at times.
* Saki Tsuzura from the [[
* In ''[[Marvel Ultimate Alliance]]'', [[Spider-Man]] ''EPITOMIZES'' this trope. 25% of his time is being useful, 75% is being an ass to Nick Fury.

Line 124:
** If you have them both in the same party, the former deadpan snarks at the latter about finally meeting someone whose jokes are worse than his.
** In Deadpool's solo mission he encounters an evil clone of Spidey. They engage in an epic Snark-Off, until Evil-Spidey's master Arcade gets annoyed and interrupts so they can actually get to the fight.

* ''[[Grandia II]]'' uses the ''main'' character as its snarker, resulting in many wonderful conversations where the party wants to stop and help people in need, and Ryudo rolls his eyes, mocks them all, and reluctantly agrees to go along with it.
* Solid Snake of the ''[[Metal Gear]]'' series, either in his own games or in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]. Brawl''.

'''Mr. House:''' Was that supposed to come as a shocking revelation? }}
* The ''[[Jak and Daxter]]'' games dispense this trope with a [[More Dakka|Vulcan Fury]]. Daxter has been known to ask the progression-critical warrior NPC "Have you tried attacking him with your melodrama? 'Cause it's killing me!". Samos is also fairly good at it...oh, and when Jak takes his [[Super-Powered Evil Side]] [[Took a Level
* Frank West in ''[[Dead Rising 2|Dead rising 2: Off the Record]]'', oh so very much.
* An interesting case in ''[[Bomberman|Bomberman 64 The Second Attack]]'' where Bomberman himself, despite being portrayed as a [[Heroic Mime]] in the game, is revealed to actually be a deadpan snarker after getting the good ending which goes back and shows what the White Bomber was saying in most of game's cutscenes. Most of which are snarky comebacks directed at his comic relief partner, [[Ridiculously Cute Critter|Pommy]].
Line 195:
'''Nick:''' Oh good! Now we can die here as adults.
'''Nick:''' There goes repopulating the earth. (When Rochelle, the only female in their group, dies) }}
* Since the game is about people with horrible backstories and their efforts to get past them, most of the cast of ''[[Fate/stay night]]'' are snarkers to a degree. Even the [[Token
* Elaine from ''[[Monkey Island]]'', who seems to take after her {{spoiler|grandfather.}}
* Lin from ''[[Advance Wars|Advance Wars: Days of Ruin]]''. Especially in the Tactics briefings, and especially towards Will. She's arguably that much more badass because of it, though.
