Since the thread seems to have died and ( to my surprise ) no one guessed even one of mine, I’ll answer them. \*“Not only do you like to dress like a woman, but you like to smash and grind things.” \* : _Final Fantasy VII_, if you talk to the guard outside the bee-themed club after returning to Midgar. _“Where’s the Early Bird when you need him, eh ?”_ : _Final Fantasy X_, Wakka says this the first time you run into one of those giant sand worms. _“I sacrificed my limbs to the gods long ago.”_ : Sydney in _Vagrant Story_, in the cutscene where someone chops his arm off and no blood flows - it’s just hollow metal. _“My strength is endless, as the storm is endless !”_ : From an early cutscene before a boss battle in _Summoner II_; the enemy is a priest possessed by the Endless Storm. _“So long as one of us stands, we are legion !”_ : Kain, in _Soul Reaver_. _“No, no, I’m OK with that pudenda thing.”_ : Cryptosporidium 137 to Silhouette in _Destroy All Humans_. ---

> [@AllWalker](#): > > Oh wow. Is that Pikmin 2? Yeah, that’s it. Here’s another one (different game): “The events we have long feared seem to have been set into motion. If you have sought me out, it must mean you have found the Hero Of Time, does it not? Then for what purpose have you come to see me?” Hint: This line isn’t readable until your second playthrough. ---
