Gotta love dumb easter eggs. One of my favourites is in The Evil Within 2. When you're levels away from the first safehouse, you can travel all the way back to it and try to convince your contact O'Neal to come outside and help. He'll say, "No way. It's f***ing EVIL out there," to which you as Sebastian reply in a deadpan voice, "That may be, but there's EVIL WITHIN, TOO." Then both O'Neal and Sebastian look directly at the camera for a good solid moment, before O'Neal finally tells you, "Whatever," and refuses to leave.
Spoiler: for Hitman 3, the hippo is foreshadowing Diana’s betrayal. The dance of death refers to her having placed a poison device on him and betraying him after a tango they do while blending in at the end of a mission. Although in the end, she was helping to place him where he needed to be to kill a target by doing that. Blood Money style.
The Stanley Parable Ultra Deluxe is the only game that not only survived development hell and wasn’t disappointing on launch, but also exceeded everyone’s expectations and was worth waiting every day it was postponed.
Well the game is fun for a bit, but the price of the game for what the players got left a bit of bad taste in my mouth. I was not that impressed with the new endings, or dialogue that required the bucket. The bucket becoming a thing felt pretty lazy to me, and I certainly thought something more clever or creative would've happened in the 3+ plus years of development the game had. At least that's my opinion. I also disliked having to restart my game to get back to the memory zone or other areas. Which should've been a feature since day one.
Credit for keeping these lists fresh and entertaining. Falcon, you and Jake are the best… Been watching for ages, keep up the great work and I hope you stick around for many more years guys. 👍🏼
One of my favorites is in Wolfenstein: The New Order. If you flush the toilet up stairs a few times, in succession or throughout the game, you begin to question your sanity because you keep doing it.
One of my favorite easter eggs is from The Cursed Crusade. After opening enough coffers in the game, your partner Estaban will ask why they're opening the coffers and what do they get our of them then the other character Dentz will say, " Well isn't that an achievement in itself" shortly after you get an achievement. Just a fun 4th wall breaking easter egg.
Best Easter Egg I personally found was in Skyrim Remaster for PS4. I don't know what (if anything) triggers it specifically, I can't remember where it was or what I was doing, but I stumbled upon a cart on the road. The cart was tipped over and all it's contents were spilled out on the road. Cabbages. A cart full of cabbages tipped over on the road and spilled everywhere. No note, no lore book, no NPC, just a cart and cabbages. if you know, you know.
Avatar the Last Airbender, "Noooo! Not my cabbages!" Cabbage merchant had it rough. Every time he was on screen his cart full of cabbages got destroyed.
Man, and I thought the Serious Sam 4 football match thing was a fever dream. I encountered that secret by accident on my first playthrough and laughed so hard I dropped my mouse on the floor (mouse is okay)
One of my favorites is in "S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl," where you come across a body with a gasmask lying on a cot named Gordon Freeman. I think it's in one of the initial towns in which you spawn.
You should try the original Red Faction, the later games...not so much. I loved how all weapons had alternative fire modes. Really fun split screen multiplayer, if online was viable for the PS2 we might be looking at a different FPS landscape today.
Question: How is the infinite hole in Stanley Parable UD an easter egg or secret? You're intended to play around with that hole, just as you're intended to find the comfort of the bucket. Now, an easter egg would be the bottom of the monitor room without the bucket.
its an easter egg in the same sense as the cod zombies easter eggs are how you progress in the aforementioned mode, 98% of easter eggs are meant to be found, just like the scarab guns in the og halo 2, just like the skulls, an easter egg is little more than a spot of fun on the devs part that can be of use, is made to be used or is simply just a little joke, like the golden spork
@@_blood_moon_proto_1500 An easter egg is by definition off the beaten path, hidden... like... an Easter Egg, hence the name. Doesn't mean it has to be well hidden, just hidden. And in the case of the infinite hole... it's as "hidden" as a bucket under a spotlight.
@@DKannji yea no shit, but please note, exhibit A skulls in halo, exhibit B the only way to progress on a zombies map, exhibit C just about everything henry stickman, exhibit D alt dialogue, just listen to sgt johnson in halo, exhibit E unique easter egg weapons in destiny, cyberpunk, fallout nv, skyrim and even cod ghosts venom X in multiplayer, they are not exactly hidden you know, oh and your definition is half true, yea sure, some easter eggs are hidden, but not all of them, back to new Vegas for example, "that gun" its not exactly hiding the fact its literally the blade runner gun, or how about the halo magnum in destiny 2 they don't exactly hide nor are they subtle, and yet, they are still called easter eggs, hell if you really wanted i could even call out a really old rpg that literally has master chief armour and an energy sword and im pretty sure an assault rifle (not an actual assault rifle just a crossbow that looks like one) and you know what, its not even remotely hidden, hell i could go to the borderlands, oh whats that borderlands 3 has a super shotgun with doom music and extreme doom themes, right the way down to its flavour text literally screaming doom, hell even its name screams doom, hell its actually a quote, the shotgun is called the speed loading hellwalker, look it up, no exact dedicated drop, low rarity legendary shotgun with insane dps, just like the super shotgun, there is no steps to trying to find it, there is no exact drop location, just an easter egg enemy (road hog refernce) with a very high chance of dropping it, and guess what, its not hidden, what so ever, in fact, it was actually a meta weapon in the shotgun category, you see what im getting at, easter eggs are not always subtle nor hidden, hell even halo has a armour set that is just a spartan-ified version of a certain character from a very popular Japanese side scroller so sorry to pop your bubble, but no, not all easter eggs are subtle or hidden, if you don't like it, then fine, but don't take it out on me, take it out on the ones who chose not to hide the easter eggs, i mean a character being 4th wall aware is an easter egg in of itself, and name how many of them there are that don't even hide it, here let me kick you off, deadpool, ooh heres another domino (either her or one of the x-men) literally read all the comics, of the exact comic they where in, you don't exactly get less subtle than that
@@_blood_moon_proto_1500 I think you've conflated "reference" and "homage" with easter egg. And as I stated, not all easter eggs are "hidden" per se, however, they Are side content Or things not meant for the average player. Being self referential isn't an easter egg either, not unless that instance is side content or hidden dialogue(again "hidden" meaning not easily found). And on a last note, I didn't intend any slight against you. My tone might come off as abrasive at times, this is just how I communicate.
I don’t know if anyone on the Gameranx crew will see this, but since you’re my go-to gaming channel, I’d love to see you guys talk about more vintage games (think 80s-early 2000s) and underrated franchises that didn’t get to shine in the spotlight like other games (Like syphon filter compared to MGS).
One of my favorites is skipping the credits to Summoner, to reveal a hilarious DnD skit. It used the character models from Summoner and Red Faction, but it always makes me laugh. "Ogres? Man I got an Ogreslaying Knife, its got a +9 against ogres."
I’m pretty sure the Hippo in Hitman is actually supposed to be a sort of prophet who sort of hints at the future events. When he references the “dance of death” he’s talking about the part where you dance with Diana in the second last level.
The Tannis Fish easter egg has been there since bl1. It was there just before rakk hive in bl1 and sawtooth cauldron in bl2. I'm not sure about the pre sequel, but no one talks about the pre sequel so its fine.
Gameranx thank you so much for always putting up amazing content. Every morning on my way to work I listen to your videos. You guys are awesome keep it up!
Summoner 2 had a somewhat hard to get to easter egg about the "Hall of Blasphemers" which takes you to a mockup of the developer's studio and outside there is a tornado with cows in it among other things.
11:13 during this Easter egg you will hear the developer voices screaming on Croatian: Dobra (wich means good) and Igraj (wich means play). Serious Sam is the Best FPS series devloped in Croatia by Croteam.
In Metal Gear Solid 5 Phantom pain, kind of like the first entry there’s a caution sign in the mother base showing someone getting hit with falling debris and if you stand next to it long enough you will get hit with a box. There’s also a radio that plays sounds of PT and plenty of other Easter eggs in MGS
My favorite gaming easter egg will ALWAYS be Halo Reach's Dance club. I still remember my dad searching for the switches and when he walked into the mall all the Covenant was dancing out to some halo remix song with the brutes being the DJs. And the best part being when you killed one of them the music just stops with that screeching noise and they all stare at you for a few seconds before they start shooting.
A great Easter egg in Last of Us 2 is when you find the ring from the Uncharted series (it's a very subtle find) But my all time favorite Easter egg is the giant fire breathing chicken in Gears of War 3
that tiny car reminded me a hitman easter egg (think it is in 2nd or 3rd game) where when you feed a dino toy several times you can actually ride a dino child toy later
Here’s another Gears of War Easter Egg (not sure if it’s been mentioned in previous videos): in Gears of War 2, near the end of the game, there’s this area with some chest level stone pillars with statues on them of something. If you melee a specific one, it breaks and there’s a toaster inside. It ejects toast and theres dialogue for Delta squad: Marcus: “WHO WANTS TOAST!?” Cole: “I like mine burnt” Dom: “crispy for me”
In the original Stanley Parable, I think the broom closet is just as goofy and fun an easter egg. The infinity hole is like that, but on steroids, now that I think of it.
In Hitman the hippo talks about the Mendoza mission: wine is poured - it is at a wineyard, dance with Diana - how the misison may end, and of course the staged betrayal of Diana - you cannot trust anyone.
One of my favorites is the workout mixtape in Commander Zavala’s office in destiny two. I crouched up and down for seven minutes and never regretted it. Well until my “B” button broke the next day. Edit: How did I almost forget that they also posted it on their YT. Which is hilarious because they are acknowledging that they also love the Easter egg.
Summoner got a very quick mention during the Red Faction segment. There’s an Easter egg in that game featuring the characters of summoner as well as the red faction guy playing D&D
There's a few in Maniac Mansion, You can send the high pitched tape or the tape of the broken record to Mark Eteer, You can also give the high pitched tape to green tenticle, If you're playing Syz or Razor You can explode the hamster in the microwave and even give it back to its owner afterwards, You can also get Meteor a publishing contract and send the police after him so he gets arrested whilst giving an interview on live TV.
The don't look up reminds me of a game I played on a TRS-80. Asylum had a note that said "Look up" that you could use as a weapon against an axe-wielding maniac. A piano would fall on him, as it would to you if you decided to look up.
Not really an easter egg, but in Half Life 2, there's a Vortigaunt that you encounter, I think it's during the mission with the airboat, and everytime you interact with him, he'll say something really random, and you can do that a whole lot of times before it starts to repeat. So they recorded like tons of lines of just nonsense for that Vortigaunt to say to you, lol.
I'm seeing your videos and now I got the pattern . The last number clip (say like 10 ) is always the best (probably to get our attention). That's very clever !!! Love your show
awesome video, I haven't found any easter eggs recently, but I found a way to get past skyrims border next break the map, and finally made my way back sadly no easter eggs that I saw but it's nice seeing the map from Below 🤣
Gameranx certainly does their homework, but I'm a little disappointed that we didn't see any special mention of the Five-Finger-Fillet access in Full Throttle (it's an entire minigame!) and the appearance of Sam and Max in Dark Forces 2: Jedi Knight (or was it Mysteries of the Sith?) - Either way, Lucasarts had some amazing Easter Eggs, definitely should have been included.
The Tannis thing from Borderlands 3 started in BL1 doing pretty much the same thing, shooting some barrels and it's just Tannis on a fish. then in BL2 happens again, and again shoot some barrels and it's just Tannis on a fish. the cool thing in BL3 is that they added the fish attack.
So that football game in Serious Sam 4 actually can be helpful. Theres a Sam clone behind one goal in the stands and a Mental Mate clone behind the opposite goal in the stands and depending on which team scores they will throw health and armor pickups out onto the field for you.
I think one of the weirdest easter eggs I'd ever encountered was in Deus Ex 2. As far as I know, it can't be accessed in game as I've never seen it documented anywhere. I found it by playing around in some resource snooping app to dig around in the game files. It had the option to listen to sound resources, so I played them in Winapp (yes, it was _that_ long ago) while seeing what else I could find. Usually, it stops at the end of the sound file, but at the end of one of the songs from the band who did the soundtrack Winapp kept playing. And things got...weird. There were recordings of conversations about random topics, each separated by a bell tone, and the rambling discussions just got more and more bizarre. I have no idea how long it goes on, as I stopped it after 10 minutes of that nonsense. Sorry, I don't recall which app I'd used or which of the songs this was in. I think it was the last one listed in the app. I do know that to find the egg, the sound resource was started from the app (not extracted) and played from the beginning without skipping ahead or pausing. Otherwise, the glitch won't occur and Winapp will stop at the correct ending of the file.
Dying Light also had a flaming sword you could obtain by holding the grab button for several minutes, a secret Mario level, a secret Plants vs Zombies garden and much more. They also have a weeping angel in the daycare basement... I knew I had a weird feeling that something was off with that statue.
Another thing about the toy jeep, or any toy vehicle, in Just Cause 4 is if you get your Heat level, (wanted level), up the Black Hand will come after you in their own toy vehicles. While the game was a disappointment for me, I will give credit where credit is do. That's a nice and funny touch.
I'm pretty sure the Pink Teddy bear in Dying Light was a reference to the twin stick shooter game called Zombie Apocalypse. One of the weapons you can get is a pink Teddy bear. And when you throw it, it talks attracts zombies. It will say something like "I'm full of love!...and C4" before exploding
Stanley’s parable is trying to let us question the true nature of real life itself. My take on earlier versions of it not having an ‘ending’ is that it is to let the players know, that they are the ones to take the initiative and decide when to stop playing or just keeps going in circles like in samsara.
Here’s some that you missed. The Neebs Gaming crew play a lot of popular games, and a few times the devs repay them by putting them in the game. They have Easter eggs in Call of Duty, Subnautica, Conan Exiles, and several more.
Summoner had an easter egg that involved characters from their games playing D&D. Mass Effect Andromeda, giant cheese wheel in space which Ryder acknowledges existing.
Old games have some large video files in them, so a revolving CD has the last physical part (the middle of the CD) filled with something that doesn't contribute to the game much. This is made to reduce loading times, so the laser doesn't have to travel to the middle in search of data, it can be done on the outside of the disc. That last music video must have been one of those.
There’s an Easter egg in Far Cry 5 behind the midwife’s house after the "Special Delivery" side mission where you have to flip over an upside down wheelbarrow to find a stack of cash and a dog collar on top of an unmarked grave.
I don't know if it would be considered an easter egg because its just some text on a loading screen but awhile back I played a game called "Vampire Rain" and if you play long enough, sometimes you'll see a loading screen that instead of giving you a useful tip about how to play, it'll literally say, "Falling from a great height will kill you. Remember, you can't fly." Dumb but hilarious because it randomly pops up. The game itself is crap in terms of gameplay though. Another thing I found hilarious is there's a side quest in Fable 3 that was supposedly created to give a gamer insight into the game developing process, but is really just two or three guys obsessing over "extremely dark chickens of doom". I haven't played Fable 3 in a long time so I don't remember much in the way of details about this quest but I always found it hilarious but dumb.
Guys I know you think those games you see in those ads are fake but today I found it. Apparently there is a link when the commercial plays and it’s amazing. The game is called Fallout NV and it’s totally gonna come to the Switch.
Please tell me if I'm wrong, but I think the Hippo is quoting a play. Something about wine and blood flowing makes me think of three possibilities. 1. Julius Ceasar 2. Macbeth 3. Nero
Gotta love dumb easter eggs. One of my favourites is in The Evil Within 2. When you're levels away from the first safehouse, you can travel all the way back to it and try to convince your contact O'Neal to come outside and help. He'll say, "No way. It's f***ing EVIL out there," to which you as Sebastian reply in a deadpan voice, "That may be, but there's EVIL WITHIN, TOO." Then both O'Neal and Sebastian look directly at the camera for a good solid moment, before O'Neal finally tells you, "Whatever," and refuses to leave.
I love this
That's pretty mad
“He said it, he said the thing!”
I had to stop the game and laugh for a solid minute when this happened to me.
"Roll credits."
I've always liked the toaster easter egg in gears 2. Something about Marcus screaming angrily "WHO WANTS TOAST?!" Just kills me
Marcus sounds so Goofy when he shouts that out
The Saga of "There's no Easter egg here" in GTA is my favorite
Haa yes
That one will never get old.

That's a favourite, plus I'll never forget thinking for whatever reason that there was a giant sea monster down there
Played co-op with a friend that had a tendency to fib; took a long time to convince me to actually go over there. Such a dumb easter egg. :P
The noisy cricket Easter egg in saints row 4 is an annoying weapon to use
The Cabbit! Amazed that wasn’t there- cabbits can be found in most SR games (don’t remember if I found one in Gat Outta Hell).
The what you called 'Spaceship' in Dying Light 2 is a flying car from a game called Crime Cities developed by Techland back in 2000 - amazing game btw
Man, and I thought the Serious Sam 4 football match thing was a fever dream. I encountered that secret by accident on my first playthrough and laughed so hard I dropped my mouse on the floor (mouse is okay)

One of my favorites is in "S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl," where you come across a body with a gasmask lying on a cot named Gordon Freeman. I think it's in one of the initial towns in which you spawn.
Also Gordon had very good PDA with him. There was some backstory that g-man brought him there but he couldn't manage the zone.
So it only took 14 years for me to notice that Volition made Techochunk, Summoner with its D&D Easter Egg, and Saints Row. That explains a lot.
You should try the original Red Faction, the later games...not so much. I loved how all weapons had alternative fire modes. Really fun split screen multiplayer, if online was viable for the PS2 we might be looking at a different FPS landscape today.
Sad that the new saints row literally got them shut down. RIP in peace

Here’s another Gears of War Easter Egg (not sure if it’s been mentioned in previous videos): in Gears of War 2, near the end of the game, there’s this area with some chest level stone pillars with statues on them of something. If you melee a specific one, it breaks and there’s a toaster inside. It ejects toast and theres dialogue for Delta squad:
Marcus: “WHO WANTS TOAST!?”
Cole: “I like mine burnt”
Dom: “crispy for me”
In the original Stanley Parable, I think the broom closet is just as goofy and fun an easter egg. The infinity hole is like that, but on steroids, now that I think of it.
Going over the railing in the monitor room.
The dying light one is kind of messed up if you think about it. An exploding teddy bear in a house full of kids.
I like the hippo of wisdom trying to turn Hitman from his evil ways
The dancing soldiers in crysis 2 is a personal favorite of mine.
This is my new favorite gaming youtube channel
Why have I become obsessed with these videos in the last couple days?
In Hitman the hippo talks about the Mendoza mission: wine is poured - it is at a wineyard, dance with Diana - how the misison may end, and of course the staged betrayal of Diana - you cannot trust anyone.
Falcon, your lists are a RUclips staple. I thought I laughed hard when I found the mini-offroader in JC4, and that clip started it all over again!
Shoutout to skyrim's notched pickaxe. its just a pickaxe on a mountain, kinda cool nod to minecraft
My first exposure with easter eggs was in Quake 3 Arena. One of the severed heads on the floor of the lava map was a dev
👍🏼
Id had a peculiar fondness for severed developer heads...
Honorable mention alongside which follows the theme of Nr 1:
The Deckard Cain Rap hidden in the music folder of the original Diablo 2.
Yeaahh boiii! 🦅Falcon's back
The talking hippo is foreshadowing the next level in the game.
One of my favorites is the workout mixtape in Commander Zavala’s office in destiny two. I crouched up and down for seven minutes and never regretted it. Well until my “B” button broke the next day.
Edit: How did I almost forget that they also posted it on their YT. Which is hilarious because they are acknowledging that they also love the Easter egg.
The Chicken Overlord in Kingdoms of Amalur is on of my favorites!😆😆😆
Summoner got a very quick mention during the Red Faction segment. There’s an Easter egg in that game featuring the characters of summoner as well as the red faction guy playing D&D
DUnno if you can call the Tommy Wiseau quest in Borderlands 3 an easter egg, but that was hilarious
There's a few in Maniac Mansion, You can send the high pitched tape or the tape of the broken record to Mark Eteer, You can also give the high pitched tape to green tenticle, If you're playing Syz or Razor You can explode the hamster in the microwave and even give it back to its owner afterwards, You can also get Meteor a publishing contract and send the police after him so he gets arrested whilst giving an interview on live TV.
The don't look up reminds me of a game I played on a TRS-80. Asylum had a note that said "Look up" that you could use as a weapon against an axe-wielding maniac. A piano would fall on him, as it would to you if you decided to look up.
Not really an easter egg, but in Half Life 2, there's a Vortigaunt that you encounter, I think it's during the mission with the airboat, and everytime you interact with him, he'll say something really random, and you can do that a whole lot of times before it starts to repeat. So they recorded like tons of lines of just nonsense for that Vortigaunt to say to you, lol.
I am amazed: they don't only show stuff, but the related sounds are also audible! Gaming vids on yt gave me the feeling that wasn't possible...
8:50 Does anybody else think the "Spaceship" look a LOT like Bender's Were-car from Futurama?
For the Borderlands 3 easter egg that was shown, it's a throwback to the first game, where that same thing happens, so there's that!
I know you’ve covered it before but the disco dance party in the evil within. Totally out of place and funny as hell
Wait what? Lol
I'm seeing your videos and now I got the pattern . The last number clip (say like 10 ) is always the best (probably to get our attention). That's very clever !!! Love your show
awesome video, I haven't found any easter eggs recently, but I found a way to get past skyrims border next break the map, and finally made my way back sadly no easter eggs that I saw but it's nice seeing the map from Below 🤣
I like the more recent entries. Videos like this always call back to old Easter eggs everyone knows.
I love the sound effect of the coconut hitting your head.
Gameranx certainly does their homework, but I'm a little disappointed that we didn't see any special mention of the Five-Finger-Fillet access in Full Throttle (it's an entire minigame!) and the appearance of Sam and Max in Dark Forces 2: Jedi Knight (or was it Mysteries of the Sith?) - Either way, Lucasarts had some amazing Easter Eggs, definitely should have been included.
The Tannis thing from Borderlands 3 started in BL1 doing pretty much the same thing, shooting some barrels and it's just Tannis on a fish. then in BL2 happens again, and again shoot some barrels and it's just Tannis on a fish. the cool thing in BL3 is that they added the fish attack.
Appreciate that you put the picture of the video as the first one... liking for delivery
So that football game in Serious Sam 4 actually can be helpful. Theres a Sam clone behind one goal in the stands and a Mental Mate clone behind the opposite goal in the stands and depending on which team scores they will throw health and armor pickups out onto the field for you.
Mercenaries 2: making a goal in the occupied
Football/soccer stadium. You get 100k a little fanfare and confetti and your partner says “nice shot”
I think one of the weirdest easter eggs I'd ever encountered was in Deus Ex 2. As far as I know, it can't be accessed in game as I've never seen it documented anywhere. I found it by playing around in some resource snooping app to dig around in the game files. It had the option to listen to sound resources, so I played them in Winapp (yes, it was _that_ long ago) while seeing what else I could find. Usually, it stops at the end of the sound file, but at the end of one of the songs from the band who did the soundtrack Winapp kept playing. And things got...weird. There were recordings of conversations about random topics, each separated by a bell tone, and the rambling discussions just got more and more bizarre. I have no idea how long it goes on, as I stopped it after 10 minutes of that nonsense.
Sorry, I don't recall which app I'd used or which of the songs this was in. I think it was the last one listed in the app. I do know that to find the egg, the sound resource was started from the app (not extracted) and played from the beginning without skipping ahead or pausing. Otherwise, the glitch won't occur and Winapp will stop at the correct ending of the file.
i accidentally found that off roader in JC4 lol, i never really thought much of it
Dying Light also had a flaming sword you could obtain by holding the grab button for several minutes, a secret Mario level, a secret Plants vs Zombies garden and much more.
They also have a weeping angel in the daycare basement... I knew I had a weird feeling that something was off with that statue.
Another thing about the toy jeep, or any toy vehicle, in Just Cause 4 is if you get your Heat level, (wanted level), up the Black Hand will come after you in their own toy vehicles.
While the game was a disappointment for me, I will give credit where credit is do. That's a nice and funny touch.
Falcon always responds super dry to people in the comments 😂. I’m here for it
Alternate title: "Hidden Video Game Secrets that were supposed to be hidden and stay that way"
Pretty sure tannis rides a fish in all 4 borderlands games
my brother really liked this video, it made him smile
Number 5 has been a running joke since borderlands 1 😂
Yes, at this point I think it's mandatory for every future bl game
The mini off-roader actually looks really good fun 👍
I'm pretty sure the Pink Teddy bear in Dying Light was a reference to the twin stick shooter game called Zombie Apocalypse. One of the weapons you can get is a pink Teddy bear. And when you throw it, it talks attracts zombies. It will say something like "I'm full of love!...and C4" before exploding
The little Sams in Serious Sam playing football are shouting "Dobra, dobra" which means "Good one, good one". I guess they mean the ball.
Stanley’s parable is trying to let us question the true nature of real life itself. My take on earlier versions of it not having an ‘ending’ is that it is to let the players know, that they are the ones to take the initiative and decide when to stop playing or just keeps going in circles like in samsara.
The stasis grenade is awesome , except it cost a crazy amount of resources
Here’s some that you missed. The Neebs Gaming crew play a lot of popular games, and a few times the devs repay them by putting them in the game. They have Easter eggs in Call of Duty, Subnautica, Conan Exiles, and several more.
This was such a great video 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 all the Easter eggs are hilarious
Thanks for the awesome easter egg spotlights!
Summoner had an easter egg that involved characters from their games playing D&D.
Mass Effect Andromeda, giant cheese wheel in space which Ryder acknowledges existing.
Falcon is definitely the best part of this Chanel
Old games have some large video files in them, so a revolving CD has the last physical part (the middle of the CD) filled with something that doesn't contribute to the game much. This is made to reduce loading times, so the laser doesn't have to travel to the middle in search of data, it can be done on the outside of the disc. That last music video must have been one of those.
Wish you had included turning Malik into a dancing Twilek at the end of the battle of Star Wars: KOTOR
Thanks for the consistent uploads!
Thanks for watching
There’s an Easter egg in Far Cry 5 behind the midwife’s house after the "Special Delivery" side mission where you have to flip over an upside down wheelbarrow to find a stack of cash and a dog collar on top of an unmarked grave.
I don't know if it would be considered an easter egg because its just some text on a loading screen but awhile back I played a game called "Vampire Rain" and if you play long enough, sometimes you'll see a loading screen that instead of giving you a useful tip about how to play, it'll literally say, "Falling from a great height will kill you. Remember, you can't fly." Dumb but hilarious because it randomly pops up. The game itself is crap in terms of gameplay though. Another thing I found hilarious is there's a side quest in Fable 3 that was supposedly created to give a gamer insight into the game developing process, but is really just two or three guys obsessing over "extremely dark chickens of doom". I haven't played Fable 3 in a long time so I don't remember much in the way of details about this quest but I always found it hilarious but dumb.
Guys I know you think those games you see in those ads are fake but today I found it. Apparently there is a link when the commercial plays and it’s amazing. The game is called Fallout NV and it’s totally gonna come to the Switch.
The borderlands 3 easter egg is a direct tie to Borderlands 1 where they had that Easter egg of Tannis on a fish by a party boat.
“I had nothing to do with any of this” that red faction one had me rollin
Please tell me if I'm wrong, but I think the Hippo is quoting a play. Something about wine and blood flowing makes me think of three possibilities.
1. Julius Ceasar
2. Macbeth
3. Nero
