While fighting a gelatinous cube: "JELL-OOOOOOOO!!!!!"
Alternately, for an alchemist with the Bottled Ooze Extract, "There's always room for JELLLOOOOOOO!!!!!"

"Elvish Charge!" Yelled by my friend's dwarf just before he retreated.
Oh yeah!
Step into a Slim Jim!
You know one could probably take any of the Frenchman's taunts from Monty Python and the Holy Grail and use them as a battle cry. They were SOOOOO GOOOOOD! (Below copied from wikiquote.org)
Frenchman: You don't frighten us, English pig-dogs! Go and boil your bottoms, sons of a silly person! I blow my nose at you, so-called Ah-thoor Keeng, you and all your silly English K-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-niggits! [makes taunting gestures at them]
Sir Galahad: What a strange person.
King Arthur: Now, look here, my good man--
Frenchman: I don't want to talk to you no more, you empty-headed animal food trough wiper! I fart in your general direction! Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!
Sir Galahad: Is there someone else up there we can talk to?
Frenchman: No, now go away or I shall taunt you a second time!
When someone offends my wizard by daring to attack them: "You did WHAT?!" (Finger of death, disintegrate)
"Bags of XP!"
"You're day just got worse."
"Save the corpse!" (from the necromanctically inclined)
"FIREBALL!"
"Roll for murder... Natural 20, you're dead."
"This is going to hurt you a lot more than it's going to hurt me!"

"Oh my, no the 'A' button is for jump... where's that instruction manual!?!?"
"Battle cry!!!"
"I'll make you battle cry!"
For blood and Honor!!! ...Just for blood!!!!
"For all that and a bag of chips!"
FOR THE HORDE!

I am not okay with this!

(3.5 Tome of Magic Truenamer) "I've got some strong words for you...."
(3.5 Tome of Magic Shadowcaster) "I'm not your worst nightmare - but I know what is. It's been following you your whole life...."
(3.5 Tome of Magic Binder) "Prepare to meet your gods, for today you face powers even they could not destroy!"
THIS COURT FINDS YOU GUILTY! OFF WITH YOUR HEAD!
"And now we see the violence inherent in the system!"
What do you, or what have you heard from players, as you/they charge into battle?
Depends very much on the setting and the kind of game.
During my LARP (live action role playing) time when I was there as my barbarian it was mostly unarticulated, wild, loud roars of primal anger. (Others told me I was good at it)
One of my PCs in a table top rpg always chanted: "Blood and fire! Fire and blood!" on a continuous loop throughout battles.
The most insidious* battle-cry I ever heard was from an anime movie. I didn't watch it in English but I'd roughly translate what she yelled as "I am wedding peach, the angel of love and I am seriously a little in a huff" and with that she started to shoot rays of love at the evildoers.
*It was so insidious because it branded my brain with the sugary oversweetness and un-battle-cry-ness.
During a New Orleans by Night Vampire the Masquerade game the coterie I was partnered with was following someone and it turned out to be the arm of the New Orleans Police Department that knew about/would combat supernatural crime. They had snatched someone off the street and we were trying to help when it hit the fan.
Then a buddy shouted "Brujah Represent!" and opened fire.
I'm still not sure how I feel about that one.
