    I knew that I'd never heard that one before, so I google'd it. Given the context, this quote is extremely hilarious. Nice choice :D

    No guesses at all yet? Time for a minor hint then, toughluck-style, despite there being no guesses yet.

    The key word in the quote is "audience."

    This is a complete shot in the dark, but "A Bard's Tale?"

    I do think you'll have to give more than that with this one. I atleast don't have the faintest clue what game we are talking about. On the other hand the quote sounds like something you'd remember so I doubt I have even played that game.

    It is from one of the EA Sports NHL series - I will guess NHL 2003.

    Close enough JSBB. It was NHL 2002. (Audience helps give the genre, which limits the guesses to sport games, I was hoping.)

    When the announcer isn't busy annoucing goals and penalties, he just blabs about nonsense like that.

    You're up JSBB.

    It is kind of hard to remember which one is which - I have played all of them from around 1994 up until 2004.

    Anyway, my quote is

    "Since man first walked upright he has looked to the stars and wondered - are we alone in this cold corner of space?"

    Hmm, sounds like War of the Worlds. Is there a War of the Worlds game?

    Well the game sounds a lot like a space quest game but I really don't know which one. I'd guess it's one of the earlier ones. Perhaps space quest 3?

    I doubt this is it, but the only game I can think of is Shadow of the Comet.

    "The DIG"?

    Or maybe one of the Star Trek games.

    No it is not from Starcraft.

    Edit: O.K. here it is again but greatly expanded.

    "Since man first walked upright he has looked to the stars and wondered - are we alone in this cold corner of space?

    If something is out there would it be friend or foe?

    What would this Earth man think if he could see a desperate space ship fleeing at a speed faster than imagination?

    What would he think if he saw the impact of potently powerful neutronic missiles upon its fragile frame?

    What would he make of the strange pod that ejected from the ruined remains just in time to avoid its mysterious inhabitant's destruction?

    And would he gape in wonder at the dozen or so strange cannisters that burst from its hold and fell towards the atmosphere of our guileless globe?

    What emotion would pass through his mind as he observed these self same containers as they passed through our atmosphere and fell upon the surface of an unsuspecting metropolis?

    So many questions and so few answers, until now dear viewers, until now!"

    I'll bet those cannisters contained Energy-X too didn't they? :) Ah, what a great game!

    Since I don't have a game quote, I'll let someone else come up with the answer. It should be easy now that you gave all that cornball dialog away :lol:
