Assassin's Creed 2 still has the best intro of all time, fight me.

Paraphrasing there, don't remember the exact quote.

My lord? Yes? My lord? Yes? Let's get digging! Whoa! What now?

In the same vein
"Wha-wha wha-wha what do you want? Wha-wha wha-wha what do you want? Why do you keep touching me?
Daah buu daah buu"
The song from warcraft 1 or 2 or something.
I like when computer games used to have a hidden song. Especially when they made it so those songs would play if you put them in a cd player.
It also used to be a thing that some games would just have their sound track play if you put the disc in a cd player. An upside was that the music was all written to the first part of the disc, and the game data was written to the outer rings where it could be read faster on most drives for shorter install times.
Man...

Two hundred metres.

Arma (or Flashpoint before it). Although it's gotten slightly better in that regard, I think. Haven't run it in quite some time. It's still probably the best there is for milsims though.
Everything that lives is designed to end. We are perpetually trapped... in a never-ending spiral of life and death. Is it a curse? Or some kind of punishment? I often think about the god who blessed us with this cryptic puzzle... and wonder if we'll have the chance to kill him.
You're here because you wanted to feel like something your not. A hero.

CONGRATULATIONS!
YOU’VE DESTROYED THE VILE RED FALCON AND SAVED THE UNIVERSE.
CONSIDER YOURSELF A HERO.
I still get a feeling of pride reading those words. Even more when I didn't use the Konami code.
I only pulled it off with three lives once. It was an endeavor.
Contra and Mario were games I had mastered. Contra I could do reliably with 3 lives. When I was in grade 2 I remember starting up Super Mario 1 and selecting 2 players because my friend was over. Beat the game without giving him a chance. The game didn't even switch to Luigi after saving the princess.
