Easter Eggs?

Easter eggs usually go right over my head. I just don't usually pick up on the fact that what I just found was one, so not many come to mind without the use of google. {XD}

That said, the first one that did come to me is still one of my favorites: Schrödinger's cat in Bioshock 2. :3

There are a ton of easter eggs on Borderlands 2, but my favorite one has to be with the Buzzer pilots, who sometimes hum "Ride of the Valykries" while flying around and shooting at you :P

I always thought it was neat that in Final Fantasy I (or II I don't remember) there was a tombstone that read "Here lies Link".

Easter eggs always made my day :P

Anyway, easter eggs are awesome. I love the UFO ones in GTA 5. Too bad you can't do anything to destroy it or something. Oh well. Oh yea. Also the ghost on mount gondo or something?

I can't get enough of the hidden goodies in Borderlands 2. Some of my favorites were Dark Souls and Minecraft Easter eggs in the Caustic Caverns, as well as the duo that sometimes spawn in the Wildlife Preserve named Pimon and Tumbaa, referencing The Lion King.

I love Easter Eggs. You get a sense of how whimsical the developers are feeling when you get to play their games. I always try to be on the look out for them when playing games actually.

In Vanquish, there is one mission where you get to see a bunch of grunts dance with a boombox blasting music. The grunts where actually doing the Bayonetta dance which made me chuckle when I first saw it.

Metal Gear Solid series is full of them. Like the Psycho Mantis battle with the memory card. The posters of a bunch other games. Figurines of popular characters on desks. Kojima in Ground Zeroes lol. And so much more.

easter eggs, you say


I can't really recall a lot atm, but I liked that reference to Oblivion's Adoring Fan in Skyrim - Cicero's journal mentions how he posed as a "starstruck fan" in order to get close to and assassinate the Grand Champion of the Arena.

Don't know if this even counts but South Park: The Stick of Truth had an immeasurable amount of references to the show, like a certain 'someone' in Stan's closet who's "never coming out". I also lol'd when I found that I can Roshambo my enemies.

My favorite easter egg is the Doug Ratman signs in Portal 2.

I've probably missed tons of easter eggs in the games I played. But one that I remember, because I always went out of my way to get it, were the sun glasses in Sacret. Fist you had to find a boat that brought you to a vacation island and there you had to do a sidequest. For finishing it you get the sun glasses in return (and they differ depending which character you're playing).

I'm surprised nobody mentioned this yet, but I found it humorous that there was a reference to the Nintendo vs Sony rivalry in Hey You Pikachu.

If you say "PlayStation" to Pikachu, it gets VERY angry.

If you're wondering what the creepiest easter egg of all time is, I'm just going to say that any kid's game that features Slenderman is not a good kid's game.
