Narm/Video Games: Difference between revisions

* [[Earth Defense Force 2017]] The game runs on this. "FATTY'S BEEN KILLED!"

* The [[Nonstandard Game Over]] in the final case of ''[[Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney]]: Justice For All'' spoils the somber mood with a simple [[Rouge Angles of Satin|grammatical error]] (which was fixed in the European release):

** Another possible example from ''Trials and Tribulations'' is due to a typo; Mia was presumably supposed to tell the judge "when you were a child," but she says "when you were ''in'' a child". The implications are unsettling, to say the least.

** Anything to do with "Shelly De Killer". It's hard to take such a silly name seriously.

** Pretty much any time the Phoenix Wright games reference popular culture, the game treads close to Narm territory. For example, when questioning a ''clown'' about an otherwise serious case, when you point out a contradiction, he ''spouts the lines to the theme from Fresh Prince of Bel-Air''.

*** Not quite. He [[Unreadably Fast Text|very quickly]] spouts the lines to the theme from Fresh Prince of Bel-Air ''with clown-related substitutions.''

*** Which circles right around into [[Fridge Brilliance]] when you realize that this jocular little fellow is nervous as shit in the deadly serious atmosphere of the courtroom, and what you're seeing is his attempt (and failure) to cope.

** In 4-4, if you look hard enough once {{spoiler|Gavin starts laughing, his hair goes from extremely messy to normal.}}

* ''[[Devil May Cry]]'' has very inconsistent translators and thus has the unfortunate tendency to fall ''right'' into these. Fans still cherish Dante's sorrowful cry over {{spoiler|Trish's dead body}} after the Mundus fight: "{{spoiler|I should have been the one to fill your dark soul with LIIIIIGGGGHHHTTT!}}" The moment isn't helped by the fact that Dante's voice cracks halfway through yelling 'LIIIIIGGGGHHHTTT!'

** In '2'', Lucia's [[Ooh, Me Accent's Slipping|accent disappears mid-sentence]].

** ''3'' had some truly wince-worthy moments. The cutscene before the boss fight with Lady ''leaps'' to mind.

** ''4'' continues the tradition of narm with insanely corny one liners and a secret ending that looks like it came from ''Charlie's Angels''.

** One example that's clear as day but still makes you wonder what the heck they were going for is Guy's cry of defeat from ''Super Street Fighter IV''. Rather than say something like "EYAHHHHGH!!" or "NOOOO!", his parting words are "PROFOUND SADNESS!" Being sad upon defeat is understandable but perhaps you could save your lamenting for when you regain consciousness?

** Akuma's newest transformation, Oni, looks... [[Your Mileage May Vary|Cool]], but [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fpsramt2Z2Ethis quote]...

** Hakan. Oil. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1hMIgU1cic Ultra combos that] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8DNq0iXkNTk involve the oil.] Yes, we know, [[wikipedia:Oil wrestling|Turkish wrestling DOES involves quite a bit of oil]] but STILL. [[Big "What?"|WHAT THE HELL?!]]

** Also, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PgKTPU7_2qU Seth's] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GDqC9pfATHM Ultras.] They have to be seen to be believed.

** Any mention of the so-called "dark hado" is ''infested'' with narm, mostly caused by how silly it actually sounds - "ha-dough", and the whole clichéd, inherent [[Wangst]] of the main-character Ryu "wrestlng with his dark side", like some sort of [[Emo]] teen.

** Whenever [[Bruce Lee Clone|Fei Long's]] [[Funny Bruce Lee Noises]] are typed out and written in SF Alpha III's Story Mode. Having him burst into "WA HOATAAAAAAAAAA!" and other screams is cool when you can ''hear'' him, NOT when you're reading what he tells others.

** ''[[Mega Man ZX]] Advent'' suffers from cheesy, not-really-good voice acting. But the champion of the Narmity on it would be Thetis - not only does he have a ridiculously high-pitched voice, but his defeat-speech sounds exactly like a 10 year old crying over a lost bar of chocolate. It's like [[Avatar: The Abridged Series|Avatar: The Abridged Series' Zuko]], only even more whiny.

*** And there's the translation company's decision on inserting voice acted actions in the dialogue box with the help of asterisks (that is, *laugh* , *gasp* , etc). That isn't TOO ridiculous, until...

*** Speaking of that laugh, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipBOhaAIULI here's the Japanese version].

*** Once Atlas is {{spoiler|paralyzed by Model Z}}, the word she yells in agony is, "BIOMETAL!"

** Really, the whole of WoW is full of them. On the surface, everything has a serious tone, but a good majority of the quests and NPC's are pop culture references or some other kind of subtle joke.

** The Wrathgate cinematic that bridges the first and second acts of [[World of Warcraft|Wrath of the Lich King]] is an action-filled scene that is very tense and emotional for fans of the lore, bridging together several different storylines and changing the game world significantly. But most fans still cringe at this overused action movie cliche:

'''Saurfang the Younger''': I couldn't let the Alliance have all the fun today! }}

** In a Narm moment related to the above, when High Overlord Saurfang {{spoiler|comes to reclaim the body of his son, now Deathbringer Saurfang (the Younger), in the Alliance version of Icecrown Citadel, it is played out as a very touching moment of Alliance-Horde cooperation.}} The Narm comes in when High Overlord Saurfang {{spoiler|picks up his son's body to carry him home in his arms. Saurfang uses a normal-sized male orc model. Deathbringer Saurfang uses a double-sized boss model with huge shoulders, which clip hilariously through the ground as his teeny-tiny father waddles over to King Varian Wrynn to thank him for his kindness.}} [[This Troper]]'s raid spent most of the scene laughing hysterically over an open Ventrilo.

** The undead version's just as bad, undead death knights themselves are walking bags of [[Department of Redundancy Department|extreme redundancy]] in and of itself, but the NPC doesn't hesitate to point it out to you.

** Kael'Thas Sunstrider in Magister's Terrace

*** Thanks to memetic mutation, not only is everything now "merely a set back" to Kael, but the same phrase is applied to any lore character who turns out not to be quite dead. One of the [[Wot LK]] raid bosses even says it himself, ''in-game''.

** One excellent example would be The Devourer of Souls. The [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43NJmbkwmzY voice acting] is so amazingly narmy that words cannot describe it.

** Ladies and gentlemen. I present you [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M2wEcyo7o-Q Theralion].

** This part of the Genn Greymane-focused short story, [http://us.battle.net/wow/en/blog/2058992#blog Lord of His Pack], where, having saved his wife and daughter, Genn gets trapped inside the sinking ship.

Whooooosh!'' }}

** Is it possible for a computer game to have [[Special Effects Failure]]? If yes, then I nominate the boss battle with Anub'arak in Azjol-Nerub. It would seem he's not as good at burrowing as the rest of his people. He actually uses a ladder to pull himself back out of the ground. Cheater!

* Milder example: the Saloon structure in ''[[Age of Empires III]]''. While the Saloon offers the players good units, [[The Wild West]]-style harpsichord music can be somewhat distracting.

** The campaign mode, probably due to the game being more multiplayer oriented, didn't exactly splurge on the voice acting or script, resulting in some rather horrendous dialogue:

'''[[Fake Brit|Morgan Black]]''': Why do ye call me Frank? Ah'm Scoatisch, y' Turkish doag!<br />

'''Sahin''': Bah! All you Europeans are French to me! }}

* The opening scene for ''[[Halo 2]]'' has an Elite Commander being publicly humiliated and tortured by Brutes for his failure to protect the original ''[[Halo]]'' from "the demon", Master Chief. This would be an incredibly dramatic scene, if only two things had been cut - 1)the Elite Commander's rather pathetic roar of pain at being branded; and 2)the Grunts in their thousands lining the walls of the corridor the Elite Commander's being marched down, screaming "Heretic!" in their hilarious high-pitched voices.

** While the Brutes are carrying the soon-to-be Arbiter to the Mausoleum:

Tartarus: "Quiet! You two whimper like grunts fresh of the teat"(another food nipple reference?). }}

** In ''[[Halo 3]]'', there's this bit in the base early on. It's hilarious because Miranda looks and sounds about 12, and it's an utterly stupid answer to a tactically relevant question:

Miranda Keyes: ([[Dramatic Gun Cock]]) ''To war''. }}

** Even harder to take seriously when you realize that she resembles [[Silent Hill 2|Angela Orsco]].

*** What's worse is that he's one of the generic voices assigned to NPC soldiers, so we get this flat and bored voice mixed in with frantic yelling and cries of pain during gameplay.

** {{spoiler|Kat's}} death might count for some. It's horribly sad at first because it's so sudden and {{spoiler|she}} was just warming to Six, but when {{spoiler|she}} drops to the ground, Six grabs a magnum and empties the clip into the dropship overhead. The rest of Noble follow suit, and you can't help but think of [[Hot Fuzz]].

* [[Fanon Discontinuity|Most people prefer not to mention]] the CD-i ''Mario'' and ''Zelda'' games. If you're not [[So Bad It's Good|laughing about the bad voice-acting]] and [[Off-Model|worse animation]], you're wondering [[What Do You Mean It Wasn't Made on Drugs?|what the writers were on]] when they wrote the script. "I'm so hungry, I could eat an Octorok!"

** "You DARE bring LIGHT to my LAIR? You must DIE!"

** "[[Youtube Poop|Mah boi]], This peace is what all true warriors strive for. I wonder what's for dinner...?"

** The [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Dv_DXqdC9k intro scene] and the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQGA6eZmZyg "toasters" scene] in ''Hotel Mario''.

'''Mario''': Here's the problem: too many toasters! You know what they say: all toasters toast ''toast''! }}

** Let's be fair, though: That "lotsa spaghetti" line, and many others, weren't exactly meant to be touching in the first place.

** On top of all that, the main character will wear the same clothes in cutscenes as he wears during gameplay. This means that many serious, dramatic moments can be spoiled by having Frank West wearing a Hawaiian shirt. Or a Servbot mask. Or a ''cocktail dress.''

** In the sequel, Chuck comes across a pair of magician psychopaths and witnesses them sawing a women in half (literally) as part of a botched magic trick. Chuck's reaction is hilarious

* The Typhon boss in ''Rygar: The Legendary Adventure''. While the game does a good job of reviving the classic kind of hero story ("save the damsel in distress, kill the bad guy, save the world"), this boss just ruins the mood. It looks like a multi-headed dragon, but the tops of the necks...are a bunch of crying, fire-breathing babies.

** [[Your Mileage May Vary|Just about]] every cutscene in ''Rygar: The Legendary Adventure'' runs on high quality Narm. "Is this the hound that guards the underworld? No! It is the fang of justice! Fang of justice, fight for me!" * facepalm*

** And there's the voice for the Cultists, who all have a high-pitched Peter Lorre accent going on while giggling maniacally.

*** And thus [http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Cultist-chan Cultist-chan] [[Moe Anthropomorphism|was born]]:

** I can't believe no one has mentioned the Dark Eldar Warriors' battle crys, especially if you order them to capture an objective:

'''HOIST THE FLAAAAAAAAAAAAG OF...................KOMORAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!''' }}

* ''[[Shadow of Destiny]]'' has a few. For example, Eike shouting, "You bastard!" at {{spoiler|Hugo}} during Ending E. Doesn't sound bad out of context, but becomes Narmy when you consider that a) up until this point, the only swear used had been 'damn' and that only two or three times, b) the delivery of the line was ridiculously casual given the situation, and c) the script writer had apparently been channeling [[South Park]]. Honestly, though, any moment where Eike is required to exhibit any emotion besides [[Dull Surprise]] qualifies as a Narm.

*** Nearly every cutscene in Radiant Dawn had absolutely horrendous voice acting. It's a toss up as to whether {{spoiler|the memory scenes involving Zelguis and Sephiran}} or the wooden dialogue between Ranulf and Skrimir are more painful to listen to.

**** And an honorable mention for Tibarn.

**** The European dubbings got it better, though far from great. The acting was decent enough more often than not, but sometimes you had the same actor voicing two different characters IN THE SAME CUTSCENE. As example, Zelgius and Skrimir in the river battle cutscene in Spanish. WHAT THE HELL?!

*** ''"FOOOOOOOORM UUPPPP!! SURRROOOOOOOOUUUUUUNNNDDDD THEM AAALLLLL!!"''

* In ''[[Fire Emblem Jugdral|Seisen no Keifu]], the {{spoiler|Battle of Barhara}} loses [[Tear Jerker|a good part of]] [[Wham! Episode|its emotional power]] due to the whole scene being on [[Super-Deformed]]. {{spoiler|Court mages casting Meteor to decimate an army}}? Epic and tragic. {{spoiler|Cute little SD mages casting Meteor to decimate an equally cute little army}}? .... Huh?

** Although some English translated patches have a ''critical'' misspelling that ruins the whole tragedy beforehand...

*** Dastard is actually a legitimate word; it means [[Dirty Coward|a malicious coward]]. It's actually used several times in official [[Fire Emblem]] translations. It still counts if you've never heard of it, though.

* From the ''[[Captain America and The Avengers]]'' arcade [[Beat'Em Up]]: Cap and his crew are prepared to fight the first boss, [[Iron Man|Whirlwind]], saying they've got him cornered. Whirlwind's retort? "''You'' will be the one escaping!" This is supposed to sound threatening, but thanks to the cheesy voice acting (it was the early '90s, you know), it sounds utterly hilarious, especially given that it sounds like both Cap and Whirlwind were voiced by [[Talking to Himself|the same guy]].

** Another example is Gaspard's breakdown midway through ''Rebirth'' as a result of Bordeaux's harassment. What was she doing? Stopping people from visiting the Canard guild shop. Yes, Gaspard bursts into tears and nearly quits the game because people won't ''shop from him anymore.'' To make it worse it takes Silabus out of the running for your fight with Bordeaux shortly after.

* ''[[Mega Man 8]]'' had this because of the voice acting.

** To make things worse, he actually pronounced Bass' name BASS....like the ''fish''.

** Don't forget the Elmer Fudd meets JFK voice they assigned to Doctor Light.

** "Oh my god, JC, A bomb!" [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NG1qKzIsisU&feature=video_response "A bomb!"]. Grade-A narm!

** Who can forget the moment in the abandoned building near the Paris catacombs? You get dropped off by your pilot on top of a dark, foreboding structure. You make your way down through the levels, passing dilapidated and crumbling walls, only to find a woman hanging out in a pseudo-apartment verbally berating herself for letting two of her cats die (and she speaks to you in a hilariously over-the-top French accent). If you go down to the basement and kill the greasels that were bothering her cats and go back to her, she suddenly goes crazy:

** JC's line delivery if Sandra Renton's father dies during the confrontation with Jojo Fine at the 'Ton Hotel:

'''JC Denton''': [[Memetic Mutation|What a shame]]...I wish there was something more I could say. What a rotten way to die. }}

** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vxi7JRJrod4 This video] consists of various lines of the game's dialogue mixed up and spliced together.

* ''[[Gears of War]] 2'': "A ''giant worm''! They're sinking cities with ''a giant worm!''"

** Gears is full of deliberate moments of narm. Such as this little slice of dialogue:

'''Marcus Fenix:''' More like TEN shitloads! }}

** And let's not forget this particular bit of exchange:

'''Anya:''' "Uh...okay...roger that, Delta. Keep us posted. Control Out." }}

** {{spoiler|Dom killing Maria because she's no longer hot.}}

** Nearly everyone in the hilariously screwed up English dub of the ''Maximum Impact'' spinoffs, especially Rock Howard, whose pre fight line in one player mode has him saying "I CAN'T CONTAIN MY BLOOD RAGE!" in a seemingly pained voice, only to then say "Look out!" in a surprisingly more calm voice.

* ''[[Art of Fighting|Art of Fighting 2]]'' is guilty of having an English translation that is pure narm incarnate. While the Japanese script was somewhat serious, the English translation took no prisoners in becoming near [[Gag Dub]] hilarious. Thus came hilarious moments such as:

'''Geese''': "That's GEESE, fool. Sad pun I know but... the fowl leader of Southtown." }}

** Not to mention how Jack transforms the Neo Black Cats into {{spoiler|a creative dance group.}}

** Getting up to Geese in ''[[Fatal Fury]] Special'' using Terry in arcade mode leads to this threatening pre-match taunt:

** And beating Geese with Terry leads to this weird quote from Terry to the man who [[You Killed My Father|killed his adoptive dad]]:

* [[Ruby Quest|RUBY DIDN'T MEAN TO DO THAT! RUBY DIDN'T MEAN TO DO THAT AT ALL!]]

* Most characters from ''[[Soul Series|Soul Calibur IV]]''. Especially Nightmare and Kilik.

* Baldur's Gate, the slave caves: "Get me out of this hellhole!" repeated ad nauseam in singsong.

* In ''[[Knights of the Old Republic]] 2'': in the [[The Dragon|penultimate boss fight]] against everyone's favourite Scottish zombie Sith, Darth Sion, you can attempt to weaken his will in the conversation portions, leading to the following:

[You have eroded Sion's will, reducing his Will saves, Constitution and Wisdom.] }}

** From that same game, a dramatic flashback revealing some important plot-relevant info is wrecked by the participants' heads nodding back and forth constantly. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aefbazFnbig Take a look.]

** It was in the first game and probably in the second game, but during conversation the player character is always doing the 'yes, I see' head nods and bearing a vaguely intent expression. Usually this is fine, but when the NPCs you're talking to are being insulting or making demands, it looks pretty silly.

** On the first planet you visit in ''KOTOR II'' (Peragus), you meet the HK-50 assassin droid ( {{spoiler|who has taken control of the station's mining droids and killed everyone aboard}}) who plays a recording of the chief engineer's last moments. Some find it terrifying, others find it narmy.

* ''[[Snatcher]]'', excellent as the rest of the acting was, has these in the second half:

* Pick a scene in ''[[Last Alert]]'' for the Turbo-Duo. Seriously. Any scene at all.

** "I want you, to assassinate him. :|"

* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09s-c2JVI40 GAME OVER YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!]

* In both second stages in ''[[Darius]] Twin'', you face the [[Dual Boss|Dual Bosses]] Emperor Fossil and Queen Fossil. Instead of the usual [[Boss Subtitles]], you get this nice big run-on sentence:

** "A HUGE BATTLESHIP ''MY HOME DADDY'' IS APPROACHING FAST"

* There's a scene in ''[[God of War (series)|God of War]] 2'' where Kratos screams "ZEUUUUUUUUUUUS!" in a manner that reminded this troper of Boris Badenov cursing out Bullwinkle.

* In ''[[Iji]]'' {{spoiler|the ending scene if Dan is dead, General Tor apologizes for his death by his underlings with "I'm sorry about your partner." to a delusional Iji who is in complete denial about it.}} The [[Relative Error]] made this editor laugh despite {{spoiler|the tragedy and connection to Iji [[The Woobie|at her woobiest]] }}.

** It gets even funnier with the Scrambler on.

* In the arcade [[Light Gun Game]] ''Friction'', enemies will sometimes ''[[Ludicrous Gibs|explode into pieces]]'' upon being shot by the player. What makes it even more hilarious is the fact that there is [[Bloodless Carnage|no blood]], which makes the enemies look like they're made out of crystals. And after a few seconds, their bodies sink into the ground (as opposed to simply vanishing, like in most gun games), as if they were being pulled into the ground by some evil corpse-manipulating magician.

* Remember -- [[Xenogears|Chu-Chu]] [[Crucified Hero Shot|died for your sins!]]

* In ''[[Chrono Trigger]]'', there's a completely optional, utterly pointless, blink-and-you'll-miss-it side-quest sort of thing. Marle has had two or three bitter fights with her father, and now wants to make up. If you go to the right town, you have the option of buying some spiced jerky (apparently his favorite) for 9,900 gold. If you then take it to the king, he will look at it, pause a moment, then declare that he has high blood pressure, ''assume Marle was attempting to harm him'', then throw her out of the castle and say he never wants to see her aga... wait, why am I laughing?

** Because [[Frothy Mugs of Water|alcohol was replaced by sugar]], a man in one of the inns has a soda pop addiction. Leading to this exchange:

'''Man''': Pipe down! I'll tell you when I've had enough! Can't you see I love soda pop! Nothing like soda pop to quench your thirst! }}

* ''[[Contra|Contra III: The Alien Wars]]'' features one of the heroes offering the brilliant suggestion of "Let's attack aggressively!". Apparently they already tried to attack the aliens "passively" and "moderately", but neither worked out to well.

* ''Omega Five'': "STAGE 1: DA GWEISHAW FOHTRESS," and "DANGER! DANGER!" when the boss alert text on the screen is instead reading "WARNING!".

* The ''[[Thunder Force]] V'' [[Final Boss]] warning screen:

** ''[[Thunder Force]] II'' (Sharp X68000 version), intro speech: "This is Exceliza, I want to flow now." "Roger, good luck."

* In ''[[A Vampyre Story]]'', if you talk to Froderick, it kicks off a flashback to an exposition-rich conversation that Mona and Froderick had sometime before the game begins. If you ask about Draxylvania (the setting for the story), Froderick will describe the place in unflattering terms, then point out that in Draxylvania's favor, they DO have Draxylvanian blood cheese, the best blood cheese in the world. Mona will respond, "I think it's the only blood cheese in the world. Sounds, uh....yummy." The line as written is clearly sarcastic, but the actress delivers it as though she's making a note to try it at her earliest possible convenience.

** Also, in all of the Grand Theft Auto games you play as at least a [[Villain Protagonist]], if not a [[Complete Monster]], whereas CJ comes off as a bit of a [[Nice Guy]], despite being a gangster. It's a little jarring though, once [[Gameplay and Story Segregation]] come into play, and has CJ running over crowds of innocent people and beating hookers to death with dildos.

* In ''[[Brave Story|Brave Story: A New Traveller]]'', you are searching for a lost reptile-boy named Minos. His father Sogreth, according to his old friend Kee Keema, ran off to find him on his own in spite of a huge monster that was in the cave. When you find them, Sogreth is unconscious and Minos is standing between him and the monster.

[[Giant Enemy Crab|Boogaboo Crab]]: BOOGA-BOOGA-BOOGA-BOO. }}

* In ''[[Prototype (video game)|Prototype]]'', [[Person of Mass Destruction|Alex Mercer]] is usually pretty calm. Then, in the penultimate mission, he ''flips out'' and his VA, Barry Pepper, [[Large Ham|consumes the scenery]].

** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1zFhU--m2p8 ''LIKE IT'S GONNA MAKE A DIFFERENCE!!!!!'']

** Also General Randall's anger over Alex being referred to as "he" is not only hilariously over the top, but sounds more like [[Ho Yay]] than dehumanization.

*** "Steel yourself...and face...MEH!!!!"

** Those can be okay, but the absolute worst example is from the main game. Despite the limited number of voice actors for non-major characters, they do a serviceable job most of the time. However imagine this in absolute monotone:

** Ten minutes out of the tutorial you're struck with a performance that's hammy even for a guy running from Hell itself. It contrasts with the much more level-headed reactions of the people ''trapped in a church surrounded by flames''.

** Also, the way NPCs talk to eachother, standing rod-straight and making constant eye contact, is either this or [[Uncanny Valley]].

* ''[[Dead Space (video game)|Dead Space]]'', despite having ''excellent'' writing, becomes incredibly silly at times thanks to Isaac's stomping attack and its magical dismemberment powers. While it looks like he could stomp off fragile or mutilated Necromorph limbs, it's utterly hilarious to stomp on the dead bodies of {{spoiler|Hammond or Kyne}} and see their limbs come off totally clean.

* ''[[Mother 3]]'' has an in-universe example.

* Due to the creator not being a native English speaker, the Virus Invasion series has a few of these. Like in the following scene in ''Virus Invasion 6/Ledgend'':

PINK BEAR: Okey , we are moving to the old computer !! }}

* [[Final Fight|Mayor Mike Haggar]] is a badass retired wrestler who fight the crime in his city by himself. So for the Sega CD, you'd expect him to have the voice to match... but he sounds like [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSXAGsNnu-o#t=2m10s this.]

** I will drag you before Shao Kahn by your pointed beard, extra points for Shang not giving a [[Flat What|....What?]] or just laughing at the line.

* [[F-Zero]] GX has a gag called "F-Zero TV" where winning contestants are "interviewed" with [[Fridge Logic|just one question per interview]], and even then, some of the answers to the questions are CRINGEWORTHY. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-DZeBlfAUI Viewable here.]

'''Falcon:''' ''(shouting)'' YYYEEAAHH! }}

* The [[Yu-Gi-Oh!]] game ''The Duelist of the Roses'' is instant narm, for anyone who knows anything about Tudor history. As Yami is Henry Tudor, this means that he's married to Tea (Elizabeth of York), and his parents are ''Mai Valentine'' (Lady Margaret Beaufort) and ''Yugi's grandpa'' (Jasper Tudor). If that's not narm, then it's probably [[Squick]]...Also, the idea of Ryou Bakura playing Jack Cade, a rebel leader who's rebellion ultimately failed, is pretty funny too...especially since they've put him on the Lancastiran side of the battle, since Henry VI, the king the original Jack Cade died trying to defeat, was A LANCASTRIAN KING. Also, Jack Cade died a good forty years before Henry Tudor became king. It just reeks of [[Critical Research Failure]], and the whole idea is hilarious as a result.

** ... the entire concept from the very beginning is so full of Narm that it almost seems facile to point to any one part of it.

* One particular moment in ''[[Do Don Pachi]] DaiFukkatsu'' has the announcer warning you of the incoming [[True Final Boss]]. In the Japanese dub, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4fItHMbJ9yE&t=4m22s she sounds very distressed, and rightfully so]. But the English dub's announcer [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-3LHTTfvAc&t=1h4m31s sounds very bored], like she has been for the rest of the game.

* While ''[[Deadly Premonition]]'' is full of [[Narm Charm]], one can't help but laugh at some aspects of the game, such as {{spoiler|George turning into a huge, hulking monster with ''Super Saiyan hair''}}.

* As good as [[Batman: Arkham City]] is, {{spoiler|Clayface}}'s Game Over screens are truly a sight to behold. Though the quotes alone are snicker-worthy, his accompanying stage movements and {{spoiler|''[[Jiggle Physics]]''}} are what really gets the crowd going. [[William Shatner]] would be proud.

"'''[[Leaning on the Fourth Wall|IT,]]''' '''[[Large Ham|WAS THE PERFORMANCE...]]''' '''''[[Punctuated for Emphasis|OF A LIFETIME!]]'''''" }}

** Also, this line from Batman. Yeah, it [[Makes Sense in Context]], but it still makes death sound [[Death Is Cheap|really, really cheap]]:

* At the end of ''Cadash'', after uncovering the true villain and defeating him, you character prepares to leave when the princess addresses you again with a dramatic closeup: "Thank you for the important thing!"

* ''[[Runescape]]'s'' Quick Chat feature is a good way to get various points across in a clear and concise manner. It also clashes drastically with the chatspeak and abbreviations normally used by MMO players. You get used to it, but until then things like "My Strength level is 83." and "Go to location: Al Kharid." may make you wonder if the speaker is a robot.

** Jigoro's [[Jerkass|Jerk Assery]] gets so cranked [[Up to Eleven]] that you simply ''cannot'' take him seriously. A little more subtlety, please.

* Many enemy pilots in the ''[[X (video game)|X-Universe]]'' games let off very narmy death screams:

'''[[Proud Merchant Race|Teladi:]]''' "Lost profitsssssss! Aaaargh!" }}
