< Cluster F-Bomb

Cluster F-Bomb/Video Games

  • House of the Dead: Overkill have a character who use this every sentence (and opened the game with "What's up, motherfucker?!"). Ironically when someone is actually a literal Motherfucker he doesn't use it.
    • The game is placed at the top because it is the first game ever to win a Guinness World Record in video games for this trope. The final F-bomb count? 189.
  • Afro Samurai is a M-rated game (based on the manga/anime series of the same name, naturally) with Samuel L. Jackson as a fucking voice actor. Granted, the titular character doesn't do a lot of fucking swearing, but Ninja Ninja certainly does. The mooks like to get in on it too.
  • BioShock (series) 2 has one of the male Splicer models (I don't know its name, but it's the businessman) yell out entire salvos of Cluster F-Bombs as his Enemy Chatter, and one of the female models (the upper-class woman) is also, but not nearly as, foul-mouthed. Other random Splicers and named NPCs moderate their language noticeably well in comparison.
  • Fucking Kingpin. Fucking Kingpin Life of Crime. The game was just as excuse to use fuck as many times as fucking possible.
    • The swear density was so ridiculously high in this game that it made Scarface look tame in comparison. Fuck you fuck!
  • Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts features much more swearing than the original game. The British say "wanker" a lot, and the Germans use such colourful expressions as "Leck mich im Arsch" (also the title of a composition by Mozart which your school music teacher probably didn't teach you) and "Hurens öhne".
  • Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas was the first GTA game to make use of F-bombs, and dropped them at every available opportunity. One gaming magazine retrospective complained that it made the characters sound less like bad ass gangstas and more like twelve-year-olds out of adult earshot.
    • 365 times, to be exact. And that's not including pedestrian dialog & radio.
    • People who find the swearing in San Andreas unrealistic have never lived in southern California gangland. Or any low-income area, for that matter.
    • The original Grand Theft Auto had a 'special' file which contained the same dialogue text, but with the profanity cranked Up to Eleven. To name a couple of examples, "Move your sorry butt before it blows!" became "Move your fuckin' ass before it blows!", and "That'll teach the bald man a lesson" became "That'll teach the baldy fuck a lesson".
  • Though the F-word is notably absent, both Cid and Barret from Final Fantasy VII deserve a mention, especially Cid. One of his first scenes contains the memorable line "SIT YOUR ASS IN THAT CHAIR AND DRINK YOUR GODDAMN TEA!" and his reaction to seeing the apparently M.C. Escher inspired Temple of the Ancients is, "Shit! Shit! Shit! What the hell's with this place?"
    • Also: "Hold on to your drawers, an' don't piss in 'em!"
    • Considering the game is T, and it uses profanity of varing degrees VERY liberally, it should be in a trope of its own. Most notably, it seems that Barrett drops the F-Bomb every ten minutes, and its BLEEPED OUT WITH RANDOM SYLLABLES!
    • A crowning moment of cursing comes from the flashback about Cid's original launch attempt into space. Right when the launch is about to happen, he leaps out a huge, uncensored "SHIIIIIIIIIT" before aborting the launch to save Shera. Definitely not a humorous moment, but it is probably the best example of the cursing the game involves.
  • "Fuck you, Kazuma," is pretty much Yakuza's Catch Phrase.
  • In The Longest Journey there is a character named "The Flipper" who averages 2-3 swear words per sentence, even introducing himself as "The Fucking Flipper" at one point.
  • Bulletstorm seems set to have plenty. This video even has them admit the language is 'colourful'. With D, T, S, C, A... all the other letter bombs to join it. The ending of that video alone has the Player Character say "Hey dicktits! This game isn't going to preorder itself!" A Fan Nickname for the game is Captain Swearword's Big Fuckin' Adventure.
  • Parodied in the "Meet the Demoman" trailer for Team Fortress 2, where the Demoman mutters drunkenly about his problems, and a long section is beeped out.
  • The multiplayer announcer in Kane and Lynch has a tendency to drop these, especially by by spamming "fucking traitor, make him pay" after every "friendly"-fire kill, which happen often in the game.
    • Not to mention the single player game.

Kane: Shit! Fuck! That old fucker took it.

    • Lynch will also begin screaming random curses during his psychotic breakdowns. Of course, he always talks like that anyway.
  • Both Max Payne games feature a mob boss named Vinnie Gognitti. His life seems to be powered by this trope.
    • The first game is largely non-profane, with the biggest offenses being the word 'Bullshit' once by Max, and screwing, quite frequently, by Vinnie. In the sequel, Vinni is a regular Joe Pesci.
  • The game Metal Arms: A Glitch in the System has a character named Krunk, a robot who looks like a potbellied war vet, and because all the characters are robots, has a censor bleep. For example, "Of course I f*** ing fixed him. It was a huge pain in the f*** ing wastepan, 'cuz he's some kind of custom jobbie!" He's also playable for one level, and curses whenever you're shot or if you die.
  • In Scarface the World Is Yours, Tony fucking Montana comes close to the usage in the film once he enters blind rage. Also, if you die, the game tells you, "You fucked up". And when your wanted meter fills up? "You're fucked."
  • The first fucking words spoken by the main fucking character of the Wii (the fucking "family console") game No More Heroes, Travis Mother Fucking Touchdown, is a rousing fucking shout of "Fuckheads!" as he fucking decapitates several fucking guards. You can sure as fuck expect more of the same during the rest of the fucking game.
    • "That's fucked up! That's the stupidest rule I've ever heard! This guy's mine, and you want me to just let him go? Bitch?! Whatever, but this dude says he wants to fight, and ain't nothing gonna stop him. This ass clown right here is-- Hey! He's gone! Mister Sir Henry Motherfucker, he just jetted! What a pussy!" (said right after Henry kills Letz Shake before Travis gets his shot)
    • "This isn't a battle anymore it's a mother fucking war!"
    • FUCK YOU!
    • The battle between Travis and Skelter Helter in No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle is mostly a swapping of constant "FUCK YOU!"s.
  • The Wii game MadWorld is fucking full of f-bombs, but it's a fucking awesome game so fuck you.
    • The Black Motherfucking Baron (stop starin') is all about this. His memorable pre-Bloodbath Challenge tirades almost always use "fuck" and other such swears. An example, for Money Shot II:

The Black Baron: And the Black Motherfucking Baron is gonna be a pimp to teach yo' ass! The rules are simpler than turning out an ugly, broke-ass college girl from Kansas: just pop corks in some marks and send 'em flyin' sky high. Except the bitches you gonna be poppin' corks in ain't gonna mind, 'cause they alien asses used to be space cadets, y'know wha' I mean? ...baby, baby, you wanna money shot yourself, don'cha? Ha, ha...all right, folks, she don't talk too much, but she is just some freaky shit, lemme tell ya. She could take a pop! ...baby, tell 'em who lays the muthafuckin' money down! (bottle being rammed down his throat) Aw, HELL naw! (SPLUT)

(While working in a restaurant:)
Maejima: "Yo, have you decided what the fuck you're going to order?"
Kirari (smiling innocently): "So this mother fucker customer wants a fuckin' beer, right?"
Manager: "What are you saying?"
Maejima and Kirari: "Nothing! Fuck off!"

      • Maejima was told not to come back to work for a month after this scene.
  • The Witcher is quite generous with its swearing. But then there's also Thaler, who starts dropping cluster F-bombs as soon as he opens his mouth.
  • Mortal Kombat is usually just over the top violence but the spinoff Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks has an Easter Egg for Scorpion's spear attack. Randomly he'll shout "Get over here bitch!" and "Get the fuck over here!"
  • In a game that has a fair amount of profanity, it's something of a surprise that one of the most vulgar characters in Fallout 3 is the child mayor of the kids-only city Little Lamplight.
  • The fucking Rogue Warrior game fucking outdoes the fucking novels. Fucking hearing fucking Richard Marcinko\Mickey fucking Rourke fucking rapping about how much of a fucking motherfucking badfuckingass fucking SEAL he fucking is just fucking gives the fucking icing on the fucking cake.
    • As fucking shown by the motherfuckers in fuckin' Giant Bomb, who really fucking get into the fucking mood.
      • They still don't fucking outdo motherfucking Demo Dick.
  • In Mass Effect 2, when you take control of Joker while the Normandy is overrun with Collectors, half his dialogue during the sequence is repetitions of "shit!" And who can blame him?
  • In one very memorable sequence in Red Dead Redemption, main character John Marston joins in on a poker game between Landon Ricketts, a couple of Mexicans and a German. When a few hands go Marston's way, the German, Muller, falsely accuses Marston of looking at his cards and is none too happy:

Muller: You fucking cheat! You fucking looked at my fucking cards, you fucking cheat! There is no mistake, your Yankee friend here is a fucking cheat.

    • A little anachronistic, since Gosh Darn It to Heck really were the worst swear words people said in those days.
      • Waaaay worse than Gosh Darn It to Heck were used...just go back and read a lot of the dime novels popular back in the day.
      • As noted by the makers of Deadwood, while Gosh Darn It to Heck would be accurate, it doesn't sound very good when it's actually used by today's standards.
  • The protagonist of Silent Hill Homecoming, Alex Shephard, swears a lot more than others when he faces some disgusting monsters.
  • Mafia II has recently (i.e. today, Sep 21st), been given a Guinness world record for the most uses of 'fuck' in a video game. The amount? Well, they stopped counting at 200, but they requested a game script for a final tally.
  • Kaine from the game Nie R has a particularly foul mouth, as often commented on by the other characters. One particularly memorable rant is replayed in the introductory sequence every time you turn the game on.

Weiss, you dumbass! Start making sense, you rotten book, or you're gonna be sorry! Maybe I'll rip your pages out one-by-one, or maybe I'll put you in the Goddamn furnace! How can someone with such a big, smart brain get hypnotized like a little bitch, huh?! Oh, Shadowlord! I love you, Shadowlord! Come over here and give Weiss a big sloppy kiss, Shadowlord! Now pull your head out of your Goddamn ass and START FUCKING HELPING US!

  • Dana Mercer in Prototype does this a lot, even before the player first meets her: her very first line is "Let go of me, you goose-stepping motherfucker!" The Blackwatch soldier capturing her - and Blackwatch are hardly the most delicate speakers in the game - is downright shocked.
  • Cass, from Fallout: New Vegas.
    • In the same game, Boxcars, the crippled Powder Ganger in Nipton. If you're vilified with the Powder Gangers, he manages to fit "fuck" into almost literally every line of dialogue, sometimes multiple times.
  • From Bayonetta, we have Enzo, Rodin and Luka.
  • In Dead Space 2, Isaac Clarke (who is now voiced) will let out a string of curses when stomping.
  • Killer7 is pretty light on profanity for the most part, but going on a killing spree with Con or Coyote will result in this.
    • Specifically, hitting an enemy's weak point with Coyote will cause him to say "You're fucked!" each time.
  • In the Dragon Age DLC Leliana's Song, Big Bad Commander Raleigh lets loose a string of curses right before you fight him.

"You...you bloody, no good bitch-born Orlesian WHORE!!

  • 50 Cent: Blood On The Sand, which actually has a dedicated swear button. And you can even upgrade your swearing!
  • Because their Simlish is constructed by cutting up the words "wing damage", Fox and Falco in the first Star FOX game speak mostly in Cluster D-Bombs. Fox's speech, for instance, sounds a lot like "Goddammit, damn dammit, damn damn." This was replaced in Star Fox 64 and later games with Badbutts spouting Gosh Dang It to Heck voice acting.
