"With boney hands I hold my partner;

With soulless feet I cross the floor.

The music stops as if to answer,

The empty knocking at the door.

It seems his skin was sweet as mango,

When last I held him to my breast.

But now we dance this grim fandango,

And will four years befor we rest."

-Olivia Ofrenda, Grim Fandango

Here's my cheesy one-liners:

"Reddy to Werk.", "For the Horde!" - WarCraft

"COME GET SOME!" - Duke Nukem 3D

"USA!" - Super Street Fighter II

And more civilized quotes:

"I'm selling these fine leather jackets."

"That's one doomed spacemarine" ?

A lot of Duke's oneliners are based on onelines from various movies (just like a lot of levels in duke nukem)

Based on? It's called ripping off. All the best ones are directly from Army of Darkness.

"Hail to the king" and "come get some"... ok, those... but there are much more oneliners in duke3d and those are not from army of darkness.

For example "your face, your ass, what's the difference"

or "It's time to kick ass and chew bubble gum. And I'm all out of gum. "

or "I'll rip your head off and shit down your neck! "

Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: Well, no shit. What do we have here, a fucking comedian! Private, Joker! I admire your honesty. Hell, I like you, you can come over to my house and fuck my sister!

[Gunnery Sgt. Hartman punches Pvt. Joker in the stomach]

Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: You little scumbag! I got your name, I got your ass! You will not laugh, you will not cry, you will learn by the numbers, I will teach you! Now get up off your face! Pvt. Joker you better unfuck yourself before I unscrew your head and shit down your neck!

He wasn't saying that they were original quotes, just that they weren't quotes from Army of Darkness.

Yes. The fact remains that Duke Nukem 3D is loaded with spoofs and references. For example those slimey aliens from those pods are is a quite direct reference to Alien.

Couldn't have known that "shit" quote came from Full Metal Jacket...
