* {{Narm}} A ''lot'', 'especially'' in the second game - which has:
** ([[spoiler: "It's a ''giant worm!''"]]
** "Look at ALL, THAT, JUUUUICE!"
** Dom's goofy short-length scream from being burnt by the Scorcher.
** This troper is probably a heartless bastard, but seeing Maria's beautiful face and feminine voice in the flashback segue into Marcus's soul patch and gruff voice made me laugh explosively.
** [[spoiler: Marcus' "AH FUCK!" when being forcefully taken to fight the Locust by his [[strike:beach-head boat]] drop pod instead of helping Tai fight TheDragon]] about a third into the game. [[spoiler:It turns what would was an expected dramatic exposure of Marcus' character into something that has the potential to make you howl with laughter.]]
** Early in the first game [[spoiler: when Lt. Kim, a guy who's spent the entire of the game to that point being a {{Jerkass}} to you, gets a slow motion death scene where he stands in the open shooting in the air and shouting useless commands like "Take cover!" and "Fall back!" while the {{Dragon}} "sneaks up on" (walks up to) him.]]
