Videogame quotes - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Thorongil · 01-13-2004, 02:51 AM

I'm sure that there are other than me enjoying this great new videogame. So here is a game of quotes said in the levels of this game. To get it right one must guess who said it. I'll start:

Quote:

They require burning.

Edited to clarify that this game covers all games based on Tolkien's works. Both the videogame in question and the speaker must be identified.

Added rule: One has to identify the level of the game as well.

The games I know is:
The Fellowship of the Ring
The Two Towers
The Return of the King
The Hobbit

If anyone know about other games, let me know.

Sleepy Ranger · 01-13-2004, 05:37 AM

Road to Isengard, said by Saruman.

Thorongil · 01-13-2004, 06:36 AM

Correct. Please continue.

Sleepy Ranger · 01-13-2004, 07:27 AM

Next question-

Quote:

I have a token I was bidden to show thee

Too easy, then again finish the game about a million times and you'll know every single thing about it.

Phervasaion · 01-13-2004, 03:01 PM

That was the mouth of Sauron to Aragorn and the others at the black gate.

Sleepy Ranger · 01-14-2004, 05:57 AM

Yes that was it.

Phervasaion · 01-14-2004, 01:30 PM

okay another easy one.

Quote:

Easterlings, Orcs. Get them all.

Thorongil · 01-14-2004, 01:51 PM

I think that was Aragorn in the fields of Pelennor.

**The Saucepan Man** · 01-14-2004, 06:26 PM

I must admit that I was in two minds whether to let this continue, but, on reflection, I don't see why it shouldn't.

However, it does seem to me that it is likely to be rather easy (for those who have played the game) and somewhat limited if it is restricted to just one game. How about expanding it to cover all games based on Tolkien's works and requiring that both the game and the speaker be identified? Any objections?

Thorongil · 01-15-2004, 01:48 AM

That's a good idea. All Tolkien related videogames included then. Is it possible to change the title of this thread?

gimli in the paths of the dead in RotK

Thorongil · 01-21-2004, 01:50 AM

Nope.

Phervasaion · 01-21-2004, 01:17 PM

can you give us a clue?... Like what game its in. (Its probably a game i dont have).

Sleepy Ranger · 01-22-2004, 03:02 AM

Gimli about Fangorn in Tehe Two Towers

Thorongil · 01-23-2004, 01:52 AM

Well, by saying the game, I've given you half of the answer, but it is in RotK.

Sleepy Ranger · 01-23-2004, 05:14 AM

Gimli, the Southern Gate

Thorongil · 01-23-2004, 05:47 AM

It's not that either.

Arvedui III · 01-24-2004, 03:30 PM

Herm... Sam in Shelob's lair, maybe?

The Perky Ent · 01-24-2004, 03:34 PM

One of the Ents in the Isengard level?

Thorongil · 01-26-2004, 02:46 AM

No, I'ts not. Keep trying.

Sleepy Ranger · 01-26-2004, 05:59 AM

This is getting too much. Sam or Frodo in Escape from Osgiliath

Thorongil · 01-26-2004, 06:28 AM

Still not right. Do you want another hint?

Sleepy Ranger · 01-26-2004, 06:31 AM

Yes a hint would do nicely.

Thorongil · 01-26-2004, 08:02 AM

It was said by a secret character. (Doesn't leave you much to choose from)

Phervasaion · 01-26-2004, 02:52 PM

I got it now. Thats Faramir at the start of the Palantir if Saruman level.

Thorongil · 01-27-2004, 01:50 AM

Correct.

Phervasaion · 01-27-2004, 02:48 PM

Okay heres one.

Quote:

Kill them all!

Thorongil · 01-31-2004, 04:27 AM

It needed some level searhing, but could it be Isildur in TTT's prologue?

Phervasaion · 02-01-2004, 01:15 PM

Yep thats right. Your turn Thorongil.

Thorongil · 02-02-2004, 01:53 AM

Try this one:

Quote:

What have we here?

Thorongil · 02-10-2004, 04:26 AM

Come on, it can't be that difficult. Do you need a hint?

Sleepy Ranger · 02-10-2004, 10:48 AM

Bilbo in The Hobbit upon finding the Ring. If not tehn I need a hint

Thorongil · 02-10-2004, 11:59 PM

It's no hobbit.
It's from TTT.

Thorongil · 02-18-2004, 04:36 AM

Are there going to be another guess? Not much happening here.

BTW, Happy Birthday Sleepy!

Arvedui III · 02-19-2004, 09:16 PM

I'm guessing an orc would say that. Hint, perhaps?

The Perky Ent · 02-19-2004, 10:24 PM

Would it be provoking orcs in Fangorn Forest?

Thorongil · 02-20-2004, 12:22 AM

It's a fellowship member saying this in a Rohan level.
