Sign in to your Polygon.com account This week, Polygon released its list of the 100 greatest video game quotes.
If you read it, I’m positive you’ll walk away wondering why a specific line you loved didn’t make the cut, because we had the same arguments behind the scenes.
There were weeks of debating to make a list that was representative of a wide array of games that accomplish different things with their writing.
Sometimes that meant having to limit ourselves to only one or two lines from one series that had the same flavor.
.
That made the task of picking the very best Resident Evil quotes nearly impossible.
More than any series aside from Final Fantasy, Resident Evil is a wealth of memorable lines.
Originally pulled from a horror game loaded with strange translations and laughable voice acting, Capcom has leaned into the corniness over the years to great effect.
One-liners have now become a back-of-the-box feature, and players are just as eager to hear the next Jill Valentine zinger as they are to see how the ongoing zombie saga unfolds.
.
For our list, we gave credit to one of Leon S.
Kennedy’s most iconic gags: “Where’s everyone going? Bingo?” Delivered directly after Resident Evil 4’s most tense moment, it’s a line that encapsulates what makes the series’ writing so damn fun.
Only Resident Evil can have you struggling to catch your breath as you dodge chainsaw-wielding maniacs and then leave you on the floor laughing when it's over.
Horror and comedy have a similar structure that hinges on build up and payoff, and Resident Evil expertly mixes those setups and punchlines together.
.
That’s our favorite line, but what about Leon S.
Kennedy himself? In a recent video interview with Nick Apostolides, the voice of Leon in Resident Evil Requiem and Capcom’s recent remakes, I asked the actor for his own pick.
His answer wasn’t one I expected
