SG is Back Up! Celebratory Puzzle

Closed

In honor of the many engrish posts (and puzzles) showing up on SG (oh and also to celebrate not lagging like crazy), here's a puzzle. Each question is a pretty well known quote from a video game put through bad translator. Just answer the video game the quote is from and you're good to go! I tried not to pick translations that were too hard, but this puzzle might still be pretty difficult.

Corrections/Hints:
5: Drop the "The" in your answer. Format is xxxxxx xxxxx
8: A prophet is not a character class.
10: Add II onto the answer if you haven't. Forgot that the quoted character was also in the first game.
I didn't realize there were different names for the games in other countries. All answers here are American titles.

I can't get the last one. I'm pretty sure I know what game it's from, but it's not accepting the answer I put in. :(

You don't use it for the puzzle, it has no translate back option.

Looks like games are called differently in my country because I know where first quote is from but I still can't get it right. FAIL! :D

Just when you posted this I tried another answer and it was right. But as I said - game I played all my childhood wasn't called like that for me.:D

I've managed to figure out 5 and 4 of them are from games I've never played before, so I'm not holding out much hope of being able to figure out the rest. They all seem to be from consoles I never owned. Still, a nice idea so gl to whoever wins.
