There's always that word or phrase that stick from a certain game and everytime I hear them I can't help but think about them.

To me, it happens with two particular words. Everytime I hear the word "semi-final", the announcer from Pokemon Stadium comes to my mind and sometimes I even autocomplete the phrase in my head. You can scroll down the audio list to the semifinals to listen to it.

Another example of this is with the word "chance". Every.Damn.Time. that someone says "chance" I can hear Jill Valentine's dialogue from the opening of RE:3

So does this happen to you? Post your examples!

 

[Royal Rainbow]

"The baby"

 

[Finale Fireworker]

"CHANCE TIME!!" from Mario Party. Every time I hear "chance." It was always so loud, and because I would stay up late when my parents didn't know, I would always have the volume low. But whenever "CHANCE TIME" came up, it woke my parents.

 

[DNAbro]

The word determination is now forever associated with Undertale.

 

[BakkaGames]

"Bonds" - Persona 4

 

[eFKac]

"Crap! Crap! Crap!", "Oh Crap!", etc.

 

[Order]

Darkness makes me think of Kingdom Hearts

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

Wait
Follow me
Wait
Follow me
Wait
Follow me
Wait
Follow me

 

[yanipheonu]

One more!

 

[QuantumSquid]

Critical.

 

[ThoseDeafMutes]

ENEMIES EVERYWHERE

Mass Effect 1. So many repeated lines in that game. Enemies would shout it in combat all the time.

 

[struggler_guts]

Darkness makes me think of Kingdom Hearts

That and anytime someone calls someone heartless

 

[Ashtar]

I'm a doctor but every time someone mentions mass effect I smile inside (which kind of sucks because having a mass effect usually refers to blood or Tumor in the brain but cest la vie )

 

[NHarmonic.]

Whenever someone says "You know Ellie? we really are the last of us"

 

[JPS Kai]

Smart aleck always reminds me of when I'd try to haggle too much in Magic of Scheherazade.

 

[Milksheikhs]

"Hey, listen"..I think of navi.

 

[Usoto215]

"I've been waiting for this!"

 

[Finale Fireworker]

Wait
Follow me
Wait
Follow me
Wait
Follow me
Wait
Follow me

THIS IS SUCH A GOOD ONE.

I can't believe I didn't give this one as my example. I automatically say "follow me," at least in my head, whenever I hear the word "wait."

 

[Elitist1945]

Whenever someone says "You know Ellie? we really are the last of us"

NO!!!!!!! I was gonna say this! Damn you.

 

[Portugeezer]

Barrel Roll. (it's an actual aerial manoeuvre)

 

[LightningXCE]

As soon as I hear the word 'Cortana' out loud, regardless of context, I immediately start thinking of the opening cutscene for Halo CE.

"Cortana, all I need to know is did we lose them..."

 

[Zombegoast]

"Persona" - Persona

 

[Shinobix]

Also when I read or someone says 19th Century I think of Power Stone

 

[FluxWaveZ]

"Persona" - Persona

Yeah, I can't see the word "persona" used without thinking of the series.

 

[NHarmonic.]

NO!!!!!!! I was gonna say this! Damn you.

:B i'm sorry

 

[derwalde]

[vocab]

Every time I hear or read the word "cinematic" I think about the people who defend 30 fps in gaming.

[Glass Rebel]

"visceral" is a word that will forever be linked to games in my head.

 

[Coriolanus]

heretic brings out warhammer memories. Same goes for unclean.

 

[Vyse24]

Pylons. We must construct additional ones.

 

[stan423321]

Eater (Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater)

Eater (Smash Bros./Fire Emblem: Great Eater)*

Speaking of MGS... nanomachines. As obvious as it is.

The only "unusual" one that comes to mind right now is dispenser, which is gonna be forever locked to TF2.

 

[Neiteio]

"Thanks."

Uttered in the voice of Chris Redfield.

 

[pnutboy]

"Okay"

 

[L95]

This always stuck with me for some reason. From Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones.

Spoiler

One of the knights in the game betrays the main characters, because an enemy says they can revive his dead wife. Way later in the game you meet said wife, who is a shambling corpse that can only say: "Darling. Darling. Darling…darling…darling…darling…"

 

[OnettHansen]

"The baby"

/Thread

 

[djtiesto]

"Adamant", since the first time I ever heard the word was in FF1, the mineral you got at the Sky Castle to make Excalibur...

 

[RevolverRoden]

"The" from the amazing title "The Last of Us"

lol

 

[Funyarinpa]

"hope" and "despair" always remind me of Danganronpa.

 

[Mephala]

Recently a relative has gained some weight and his wife jokingly called him Fat Boy which reminded me of Fatboy from FO3.

Whenever someone says cool drink instead of a cold drink. Monster Hunter item.

Well-done Steak, Monster Hunter.

Blue/Pink Roses, hybrid flowers in general, Animal Crossing.

Guts, reminds me of Berserk and BoF3 in which it was a stat that determined critical chance I think.

Someone calls "Chris" I think "Sheva" RE5
Someone calls "Jonathan" I think "Charlotte" Castlevania PoR.
