Unofficial Tex Murphy

Hey Everybody,
Let's play a little game since it's Friday. Now I'm sure we all love that line: "Danger's like Jello. There's always room for a little more." How about people list their favorite quote(s) from the Tex Murphy games besides this one. It doesn't have to be exact since I imagine after a long week we are too tired to think too hard.

I'll start.

"There's a Geiger in the terrarium!"
--Eddie Ching's apartment

"This is all that remains of the Barney the Dinosaur museum. I call it Barney rubble"

"She had a face like a saint. . .a Saint Bernard."

-- Mean Streets (about Delores Lightbody)

"The guy who sold me my stone masks said either they were a fertility charm or will cause me a life long poverty and a violent death. Live dangerously I say"


"When people tell me to go to Hell, I tell them I've already been there" About his marriage.


I can't think of more, though there are tons of great ones. I will be playing the last three games when I finish Sam & Max.

Is this about my student loan?

I've been so broke these last few months I couldn't pay attention

Some of my faves:

From the PD novel:
Tex: "Why, you don't look a day over thirty."
Chelsee: "I turn thirty tomorrow."

The Big PI in the Sky's show of confidence in Tex at the beginning of UAKM:
The Big PI in the Sky: "I'm getting too old for this. Who have we got lined up to deal with this problem?"
The Other Guy: "Murphy, sir."
Big PI: "Oh, no, not Murphy!"
Guy: "I'm afraid so, sir."
Big PI: "What about Spade or Marlowe?"
Guy: "Uh...dead, sir."
Big PI: "Isn't there anyone else?"
Guy: "Sorry, sir. He's next on the list."
Big PI: "Well, I suppose we'll have to make do. Knowing Murphy he's going to need help. A lot of help."

UAKM, looking at the "Now Playing" sign, which is missing a "P":
"Hmm. Looks like someone took a pee here."

Tex, in response to Eddie Ching's assertion that the world is going to end next Thursday. "You mean to tell me the world is going to end next Thursday? Dammit! I don't get my unemployment check till Friday!"

"My gun. I love it SO much!!!"

normally I would pay good money to be friendly with a girl like you

Uhhhmmm Murphy Sir!

Oh No, Not Murphy...

I love hearing James Earl Jones say that...

My Gun, I Love It Soooo Much...

Alright from the same scene then...

My old trusty sidearm -- been with me from the beginning... You want some of this, eh??? Bam, Bam... Bam, Bam, Bam... Bam... Bam, Bam... Bam... And you...
Hey Sonny can ya help my out??? My girlfriend threw my gun out of the window... Yeah that's it, just pick it up and, uh... HEY don't point that up here, that's not a toy you know...
(gunshot)
Oh my hell...



I think I got all that right... Okay I admit it I cheat to get all the bams right...

Wow I'm impressed so many people responded to this one. I just thought of another quote. This is a really rough paraphrasing as I haven't played Pandora lately.

This painting reminds of the Star Trek episode where Kirk falls in love with the beautiful alien woman, Spock and him barely escape alive, and he makes a joke at the end where everybody laughs.

Updated. Okay I went back into the game to get the exact quote:
"This alien landscape reminds of the Old Star Trek episode where they get that distress call, then Captain Kirk meets that beautiful woman, then he and Spock barely escape, then Kirk makes that funny joke right at the end."

It's the Alien Abductor by Robco. I bet some general cried a week when he lost this toy.
