Video Games' Worst Voice Acting

YouTube uploader DirtFilledCoffin posted this cringe-filled collection of the 50 worst video game one-liners, dialogues, and monologues (in his opinion). Though he probably could have gotten away with filling the video with just audio scenes from the Resident Evil series, he pulled from a variety of sources from Cooking Mama to Mega Man 8.
Of course, a lot of the clips can be blamed on the awful scripts they're based on, like this conversation from WinBack (03:23):
Guy 1: "I guess that means we can forget about using the elevator."Guy 2: "Maybe not! Tom left a message. He wrote it on the floor in his own blood!"
Guy 1: "In his blood? Way to go, kid!"
My favorite from the bunch is from PC Engine/TurboGrafx16 Super CD's Valis III (skip to 04:18), which sounds like the inexperienced voice actor is reciting his lines as he reads them from the game's script. I need to dig this up (along with dozens of other PCE titles) just to hear all of this game's clips.

Another good place to find clips like these is audioatrocities.com. Me and my sister wasted more than one afternoon listening stuff on that site.
