The Ben and Ed one is almost certainly an ARG. The developers go to the spooky abandoned building in the middle of the night which is just kinda weird. Almost anyone else in that situation would go during the day for better visibility. And to put a cherry on top of the whole thing they actually do hear spooky stuff which results in them running from the scene. It's all too cliché to be an accident.
@Darling Vexa Art you know what’s funny about that?

I was a Bers fan when those videos were being uploaded and i followed the whole thing. I noticed a weird thing tho, they found out about the spooky building while on Germany, but before going there he had released a video in his house in spain telling us about what he was going to do. He had this whiteboard thing behind him with clues and a to-do list and stuff, and one of the things there was "visit the abandoned building"
Can you imagine having no idea about the whole ARG thing they seem to be trying to be doing with it, just playing the game normally on the Bencalypse mode...I don't think I'd ever turn the game on again after that.

ok the "ben & ed" one actually spooked me out. just imagining playing that secret mode all the way till the end in your room at night, and seeing that shit followed by the game crashing.
I can almost guarantee the Toejam and Earl one is a common developer trick used around that time to get games through certification by console manufacturers. Essentially, if a game the developer was working on crashed during testing, the game would be rejected. However, what some devs would do was to repoint the crash handler code of the game to a scene disguised as an intended part of the game to prevent it from crashing. A famous example is in Sonic 3D on the Genesis. You can actually trigger that one by slapping the cart while playing lol. The developer coded the game so that if it detected that it was about to crash, it would open the level select menu and act like you'd found a secret. I'd wager that's exactly what this developer did, too. Essentially, the scene isn't in the game itself, it's a crash handler. Has anyone tried slapping the cart for that game? :P
So this game has never crashed for anyone in 27 years? The Sonic 3D Blast one has been known about for a long, long time, way before the developer talked about it. This being the same as that does not seem particularly probable; it's not like it's a particularly obscure game, surely someone would have noticed this. Also, "common developer trick"? Can you name one game that has it that isn't Sonic 3D Blast? Because I've never heard of any other games doing it, not even other Traveler's Tales games.

they probably didnt care too much about it since it took so long for people to take interest. but now that they are interacting with the developers, might as well use it as an ARG.
I remember watching everything bersgamer put out back then of this game, like, I watched him from before that, but i got engaged into that shit man, but studies made me not watch it anymore, now I see why he didn't do more outside exploration, i remember him going to that place but a video of self harming is a little too much, good call he didn't do it anymore, cus maybe there was actually someone at the place he went with the devs for real, and its not safe anymore when actual violence is happening there
Well, the Ben n Edd Easter egg was super popular in the latin community. Not only because the ONLY youtuber that follow the case was a spanish speaker, but also because the creepypasta community in latin america its huge The easter egg got a lot of attention and the youtuber was posting almost every week with new info and I dont know how many people follow the clues Then, the page was taking too long doing a "new mistery" so everybody stop following the thing
@@souIburger they claimed there was a secret level called the "Zoo level" but it's most likely that it never existed at all as nothing has been found in the game files.
Regarding the Ben and Ed thing, you forgot to mention another Spanish youtuber called ElRinconDeGiorgio, who was researching this weird mystery, as well as the theory that both Bers and Giorgio (aka Jordi) had about this mystery: they thought it was related to the case of Armin Meiwes, a cannibal from Essen that famously met up with another guy called Ben on a cannibal forum and ate him. Maybe this whole thing was an ARG based on that case.
You have made a great guess. In Germany there are still quite many cannibals about 500 accoring to the police (I live in Germany btw.). It is deeply disturbing and I think that this thing is probably more than an ARG. What if Ben really is a psychopath or cannibal? The bones that they found add up to this as the work of a sick mind. This is quite troubling news if it really isnt an ARG
I was originally going to have a line after that that said he was only added as a skin for Scorpion but I thought it was redundant. I should have left it in.
Pretty obvious the Ben and Ed one is an Arg meant to garner interest in the game. It just wasn't found as quickly as they thought it would. Why hire a person just to do one ending and that's it? And they were only acquainted with him online so he wouldn't be able to steal the iPod (and the dev didn't say it was stolen, just haven't seen it). Not to mention why go to an abandoned building at night when you could easily go during the day unless this is an Arg and they're trying to make it extra spooky. They didn't even contact police about finding supposedly human bones (and coincidentally left some in the abandoned house) so doubt a real foot was cut off or this is a real killer.
I like how, while these aren’t confirmed Easter eggs, they are all plausible with actual evidence backed by dataminers and players that happen to stumble on clues. There are a lot of other youtubers that blatantly lie about ones that never existed in the first place.
The Ben and Ed thing is definitely an ARG, but I do find it to be kinda interesting I hope it turns out to be an actual storyline and not just for promotion, though after Synydyne, you can never really be sure
That ben n ed one, those are my absolute favourite type of eggs and secrets. That dark kinda fourth wall break, like the game is in reality, gives me the creeps... it's like it adds another dimension and feel feel when you're playing the game. Like Undertale with flowey crashing your game and leaving files behind, and Doki Doki, I wish I could make something like those.
Idk I don't like those kind of ARG, especially as the whole vid was filmed at night? They could just go there another day and film a bit more tho, but I feel that someone will go there one day and give us more info about all the things left there, maybe some cords on bones etc ?
@Wingless Shinigami Of course it is staged. Why would they go there in the middle of the night and not when it is sunny outside and when you can actually see something? Because doing it in the dark is sPoOoOoKiEeR and thus more interesting for the viewer. Also, if it wasn't staged, they just filmed themselves tresspassing which is a crime that carries "a penalty of imprisonment for a term not exceeding one year or a fine" in Germany.
Ben and Edd mystery is clearly the devs trying to do some creative marketing. Doing the standard RUclips horror channel spooky house investigation is where my bullshit-o-meter hit red. It was nice and creepy up until that point.
Yeah they totally botched the job with that one... all it needs is the camera to be that green tinted BS and it'd be right out of the 2010 RUclips ghost hunter phase
I think that might be the point. Otherwise the advertising gimmick turns into a murder investigation. So do something that fits the theme but is clearly staged to keep it going without risking legal trouble.
Damn, I remember the Ben and Ed mystery! I was so invested in that at the time! So crazy to see Bers in an oddheader video haha Looking back tho, I do feel like, Bers being the biggest channel at the time covering the mystery (so much it felt practically like the only one) at some point he must have taken it in his own hands seeing the popularity it brought him. The first videos were most definetly real, but I'm sure at some point when things started getting crazier (traveling, meeting the developers, "stalkers" in the wood at night) he probably faked it to keep it interesting
Or maybe not. I live in Germany and there are sick fucks like that ,stalking people or waiting in certain spots at night just to kill or rape somebody. Mankind is sick. Also there are more than 500 Cannibals living in Germany (acording to the police) which makes this whole thing even creepier
The Ben and Ed easter egg was a thing i followed closely since it began back in 2015-2016 since i am a spanish speaker, and it was the most hyped up thing i ever experienced, watching Bers's streams and videos he made on it was pretty exciting, and i'm glad it got covered here since i feel it never really got that much of an impact. i honestly loved the whole thing, staged or not.
@@vvronce Same. Honestly I wouldn't find it that creepy without that question of how much the devs are even involved (plus I'd probably tap out after the foot cutting video). I love ARGs but that surreal-garbled-tech-horror aesthetic they often go for freaks me out a whole lot
Hey, FYI, Justin Royland did something similar to what’s in Trover Saves the Universe in his previous game Accounting +, called the Zoo level Easter egg, which was debunked. Edit: apparently the Zoo Level is real. Something about how the Zoo Level's code wasn't in the same directory as the rest of the levels. "It was in the RAW code" is a direct quote from game theory.
@@aboreal From what I remember, there was no Zoo level in the game code. However, last I heard it was not determined impossible, just that it didn't exist openly in the code. If someone was being clever, they could have the level downloaded when it was triggered, or decompressed from encrypted data inside the code that people aren't focusing on because it's not with the rest of the levels. I don't really know the details, but that's about what I can recall
Game theory debunked it, however later responded that they had found that it was real, and the levels data was hidden in the source code of the game and didn’t have separate files.
I love how the secrets went from hidden areas in games or something to an entire ARG with that one zombie game, that was super creepy, and made me anxious. And then wayyyy back down to just another secret area to finish it off
Or that as a third party person he'd be allowed to just slip his own easter eggs and stuff in when he's only working on a single part of it and they'd have gone through everything he did to integrate it fully into the game. They would have to have known it was in there because they'd know all files that weren't theirs and how they connected to the game.
@@Quandry1 I mean, I guess it isn't thaaaat far-fetched that a third party hired to make that specific part could slip that easter egg in there. After all, the only things that were in the game were the cutscene at the end of Benpocalypse, which wasn't really out of place, and the thing saying to follow bennnnnn. Now, that said person just so happens to have both of the character's names in his name, he somehow has a device the game's lead developer had years ago, and that he's implied to be a cannibal, you know, like a zombie, is a bit too much of a coincidence.
The Mortal Kombat secret tower fight was actually discovered. I forget the sequence but you push certain buttons and the tower pop up. IIRC it's just a fight against a random character with a skin you don't have from their Kombat League.
I know I'm 6 months late, but let me explain: starting at 1:10 AM UK time, every two hours, you have to press ←↑←→←↑ in the Towers of Time when a meteor appears. You have to do this button combination very quickly, because once the meteor leaves the screen, you have to wait two hours in order to try again. Anyway, if you got it right, a tower will rise in the Summoned Towers section. It's comprised by only one fight against a character with a Kombat League skin, and a ton of modifiers, to the point where the game itself warns you about the tower's difficulty. Beat them, and you get their skin. Also, the skins are completely random, and you can already own them. I got a tower with the same Shao Kahn skin I already own about five times.
yo that Ben and Ed one is insane. i live in essen and drive by the forest where the grate is located basically every day on my way to work (on the 52 autobahn, the big road on oddheaders screenshot of google maps) yet I've never heard of the game even, let alone bones being found there. love your channel, oddheader, keep it up!
The Ben and Ed thing was definitely an ARG (alternate/augmented reality game). People use them in advertising all the time to drum up hype, and a lot of times they have both horror and multiple social media elements. The trope of drawing in supposedly outside help (the youtuber) into the story (having him meet with developers) is incredibly common, as well as hidden messages in videos like that. Plus, cryptic drawings and bones hidden in abandoned locations? Oldest trick in the book .....you probably know all that already I'm just realizing, but from what I can tell this is a pretty well done, long running ARG that evidently isn't over. The one thing I do find odd is that they went the hard horror route with the foot video. Given the nature of their games, even if the concept of Ben and Ed is morbid, it just seemed like a lot. Ah well, maybe it's just a side project they work on between games. But I'd keep an eye on how that progresses, it'll most likely end with the release of the mysterious game referenced in the iPod
Wooooow I remember watching the Ben and Ed easter egg unravelling through many videos. I forgot the spanish youtuber was Bers, i thought it was another... Thanks for the memories!
@@stupidsnek Hm, strange. I've re-read my comment and I don't see anything about me saying it's real, just about the fact that I found it interesting... Maybe I'm just blind though, I dunno, I should read it again

This is the only easter egg content I keep up with actively lol
a guy named Benedikt is associated with a game called Ben and Ed? BEN. ED. ikt?? this whole thing seems like a sick arg/marketing stunt and honestly i'm all about it.
they probably didnt care too much about it since it took so long for people to take interest. but now that they are interacting with the developers, might as well use it as an ARG.
Dunno
Night Mind should do a video on that one. That'd be so tight :D
@@nshadex72 yo i totally agree. any of the big arg-related channels would have a field day with it tbh.
I’m mean this very obviously a PR trick but it is kinda cool so I’m not mad
Bro oddheader really drops mysteries that no one makes lists on. I didnt even know ben n Ed easter egg
I remember watching everything bersgamer put out back then of this game, like, I watched him from before that, but i got engaged into that shit man, but studies made me not watch it anymore, now I see why he didn't do more outside exploration, i remember him going to that place but a video of self harming is a little too much, good call he didn't do it anymore, cus maybe there was actually someone at the place he went with the devs for real, and its not safe anymore when actual violence is happening there
@@Gaming_Legend2 lots of thing like that happen in ARGs, most likely a fake video
Well, the Ben n Edd Easter egg was super popular in the latin community. Not only because the ONLY youtuber that follow the case was a spanish speaker, but also because the creepypasta community in latin america its huge
The easter egg got a lot of attention and the youtuber was posting almost every week with new info and I dont know how many people follow the clues
Then, the page was taking too long doing a "new mistery" so everybody stop following the thing
Are those human bones tho 😬

Zoo level
NOOOO DONT REMIND ME OF THATT
please tell me what it is before i look it up and potentially traumatize myself depending on what this is
@@souIburger they claimed there was a secret level called the "Zoo level" but it's most likely that it never existed at all as nothing has been found in the game files.
@@almostpaperboats4835 i see
Remember Justin Rolland also put a “Easter egg zoo level” in another one of his games that was just a wild goose chase
So Justin Rolland likes to pull this kind of stuff
The real zoo was the goose chase we made along the way
OR IS IT...? DUN DUN DUUUUUN!
The SZL is a deep deep deep rabbit hole
The Ben and Ed mystery is still disturbing.
After learning about Justin Roiland's "secret zoo level" I've come to realize not to trust him on any Easter egg or secret in his games
Regarding the Ben and Ed thing, you forgot to mention another Spanish youtuber called ElRinconDeGiorgio, who was researching this weird mystery, as well as the theory that both Bers and Giorgio (aka Jordi) had about this mystery: they thought it was related to the case of Armin Meiwes, a cannibal from Essen that famously met up with another guy called Ben on a cannibal forum and ate him.
Maybe this whole thing was an ARG based on that case.
@@cotomaas awwww thx
lol porque borras tio, acaso la gente hispana no tiene libertad de expresion?
Nah, I very highly doubt Meiwes would have anything to do with that. Besides, he is a cannibal, and never murdered anyone.
You have made a great guess. In Germany there are still quite many cannibals about 500 accoring to the police (I live in Germany btw.). It is deeply disturbing and I think that this thing is probably more than an ARG. What if Ben really is a psychopath or cannibal? The bones that they found add up to this as the work of a sick mind. This is quite troubling news if it really isnt an ARG
Reptile was never added to MK11 as dlc. That’s just a skin for Scorpion .
I heard him say that and got my hopes up
And the skin isn't DLC but rather an unlockable through the meteor secret level or Kombat League ranks.

Comment is oddly underrated
Ok I'm scared of Ben. That one gives me goosebumps ngl. And this ain't Halloween yet!
Same here lmao
Ben one sus
Pretty obvious the Ben and Ed one is an Arg meant to garner interest in the game. It just wasn't found as quickly as they thought it would. Why hire a person just to do one ending and that's it? And they were only acquainted with him online so he wouldn't be able to steal the iPod (and the dev didn't say it was stolen, just haven't seen it). Not to mention why go to an abandoned building at night when you could easily go during the day unless this is an Arg and they're trying to make it extra spooky.
They didn't even contact police about finding supposedly human bones (and coincidentally left some in the abandoned house) so doubt a real foot was cut off or this is a real killer.
"Oh neat, another fun oddheader vid, let's check it out"
11:57
"I'm sorry, what the fuck?"
And that jump scare tho
Title: Easter Eggs that were never found.
Oddheader: This easter egg is still haven’t been found.
Me: :O
Didn't see that one coming damn
I like how, while these aren’t confirmed Easter eggs, they are all plausible with actual evidence backed by dataminers and players that happen to stumble on clues. There are a lot of other youtubers that blatantly lie about ones that never existed in the first place.
“Reptile was added as DLC into the Game”
Ummmmmmmm, about that...
I wish :(
@@totallyrealciaBOLLOCKS! CRIKEY!!! IT'S THE CIA!!!! RUNNNN!!!!!
The Ben and Ed thing is definitely an ARG, but I do find it to be kinda interesting
I hope it turns out to be an actual storyline and not just for promotion, though after Synydyne, you can never really be sure
Last time I was this early the Futurama Easter egg wasn’t found
Thats a good reference
The ben and Ed one makes me feel like a serial killer has been putting bones around to make a human skeleton or some shiz
Same, when I heard/saw the bones I thought maybe it would form a skeleton or something since one of the characters is a zombie
OMG SO GLAD IM NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO THOUGHT THAT. Like, did anyone ever check the bones too see if their real and what they belonged too?
I get way too hyped when an oddheader video goes up. They're the only videos I drop everything for.
12:10 "The Facebook page still ended up getting deleted shortly after the foot video"
Boy, haven't we all been there
1:24 That tongue is absolutely caked in plaque
God damn I remember when the Ben and Ed thing started happening and that ending when you play as Ed still scares the shit out of me
The Jack Nicholson tree is definitely BS lol
@Darling Vexa Art find a perfectly normal Jack Nicholson and touch it.
That ben n ed one, those are my absolute favourite type of eggs and secrets. That dark kinda fourth wall break, like the game is in reality, gives me the creeps... it's like it adds another dimension and feel feel when you're playing the game.
Like Undertale with flowey crashing your game and leaving files behind, and Doki Doki, I wish I could make something like those.
I absolutely love ARGs. I'll never participate in one, but the mysteries behind them are so interesting.
Learn to code and have a crack at it
Doki doki is just a bunch of clever renpy tricks, tech rules made a great video about decompiling the game
fun fact the spanish youtuber who documented it got cancelled for grooming
@@Angenano no, that was his brother I think
10:00 I literally saw this guy on my childhood....
I am... speechless. It's been so long since I saw him or heard of him
ben and ed has really the most wtf ending and easter egg
I feel like that whole Bennnn thing is like an ARG or something for advertising....and honestly it’s working, kinda want to play the game.
It's beyond a reasonable doubt an arg for the sake of advertising. It's pretty cool and honestly worked lol, gonna check out their games now.
That whole thing of "finding someone in the abandoned building" feels staged...
Yeah maybe we could submit this to Nightmind or something
It pretty obviously is. Idk why odd header thought it was legitimate
Idk I don't like those kind of ARG, especially as the whole vid was filmed at night? They could just go there another day and film a bit more tho, but I feel that someone will go there one day and give us more info about all the things left there, maybe some cords on bones etc ?
@Wingless Shinigami Of course it is staged. Why would they go there in the middle of the night and not when it is sunny outside and when you can actually see something? Because doing it in the dark is sPoOoOoKiEeR and thus more interesting for the viewer.
Also, if it wasn't staged, they just filmed themselves tresspassing which is a crime that carries "a penalty of imprisonment for a term not exceeding one year or a fine" in Germany.
Ben and Edd mystery is clearly the devs trying to do some creative marketing. Doing the standard RUclips horror channel spooky house investigation is where my bullshit-o-meter hit red. It was nice and creepy up until that point.
Yeah they totally botched the job with that one... all it needs is the camera to be that green tinted BS and it'd be right out of the 2010 RUclips ghost hunter phase
bullshit-o-meter :joy::joy::joy::joy::joy::joy::joy:
yeah. that is exactly what happened to me. it was believable up to that point
I think that might be the point. Otherwise the advertising gimmick turns into a murder investigation. So do something that fits the theme but is clearly staged to keep it going without risking legal trouble.
The bennn spooky stuff is literally just an arg to get people to play the game lmao
absolutely. I mean they could go into that abandoned house in the daylight and not in the middle of the night right?!
@@paymankhayree8552 yeah that's what really gave it away. I was getting really into it until that happened. and when they "heard noises" and ran away.
How do people buy this stupid shit?
@@paymankhayree8552 Yeah. With so many horror movies with people going into creepy places at night, it would be more smarter to go at day time.
@Darling Vexa Art idk if its solved, the ARG is still ongoing and there are still "locations" that have been teased
Me: just one more video before I can sleep without any fears
Oddheader: 2.
The Ben and ed one gave me chills for like the rest of my whole life
Damn, I remember the Ben and Ed mystery! I was so invested in that at the time! So crazy to see Bers in an oddheader video haha
Looking back tho, I do feel like, Bers being the biggest channel at the time covering the mystery (so much it felt practically like the only one) at some point he must have taken it in his own hands seeing the popularity it brought him. The first videos were most definetly real, but I'm sure at some point when things started getting crazier (traveling, meeting the developers, "stalkers" in the wood at night) he probably faked it to keep it interesting
Or maybe not. I live in Germany and there are sick fucks like that ,stalking people or waiting in certain spots at night just to kill or rape somebody. Mankind is sick. Also there are more than 500 Cannibals living in Germany (acording to the police) which makes this whole thing even creepier
Gotta love the discord, youtube doesnt even know this exists yet.
For Trover Saves the Universe: had anyone found audio files for the Jack tree’s lines?
@Nathan Peterson according to pictures shown during Installation from disc image - there is a 4th character
@Nathan Peterson Oh.
@Nathan Peterson you're mixing dark judgement and trover saves the universe
@Nathan Peterson oh, alright, didn't noticed it was edited
The Ben and Ed easter egg was a thing i followed closely since it began back in 2015-2016 since i am a spanish speaker, and it was the most hyped up thing i ever experienced, watching Bers's streams and videos he made on it was pretty exciting, and i'm glad it got covered here since i feel it never really got that much of an impact.
i honestly loved the whole thing, staged or not.

Hey, FYI, Justin Royland did something similar to what’s in Trover Saves the Universe in his previous game Accounting +, called the Zoo level Easter egg, which was debunked.
Edit: apparently the Zoo Level is real. Something about how the Zoo Level's code wasn't in the same directory as the rest of the levels. "It was in the RAW code" is a direct quote from game theory.
The zoo thing was fake?
@@aboreal yeah. Several videos have debunked it, most prominently Game Theory.
@@aboreal From what I remember, there was no Zoo level in the game code. However, last I heard it was not determined impossible, just that it didn't exist openly in the code. If someone was being clever, they could have the level downloaded when it was triggered, or decompressed from encrypted data inside the code that people aren't focusing on because it's not with the rest of the levels.
I don't really know the details, but that's about what I can recall
Game theory debunked it, however later responded that they had found that it was real, and the levels data was hidden in the source code of the game and didn’t have separate files.
@@OfficialMilk so did anyone manage to make it playable?
I finally had a moment to watch this with no interruptions. Another great video! Loved that second one a lot.
I love how the secrets went from hidden areas in games or something to an entire ARG with that one zombie game, that was super creepy, and made me anxious. And then wayyyy back down to just another secret area to finish it off
My plushy arrived. I got a little odd header sitting on my drawer, all the way in Germany 🙏🏻
Don't ever bring it to an elevator
"Benedict" so doesn't exist. I mean Ben-ed-Ict. Seems suspicious he just happened to have both of the characters names in his own.
Or that as a third party person he'd be allowed to just slip his own easter eggs and stuff in when he's only working on a single part of it and they'd have gone through everything he did to integrate it fully into the game. They would have to have known it was in there because they'd know all files that weren't theirs and how they connected to the game.
@@Quandry1 I mean, I guess it isn't thaaaat far-fetched that a third party hired to make that specific part could slip that easter egg in there. After all, the only things that were in the game were the cutscene at the end of Benpocalypse, which wasn't really out of place, and the thing saying to follow bennnnnn.
Now, that said person just so happens to have both of the character's names in his name, he somehow has a device the game's lead developer had years ago, and that he's implied to be a cannibal, you know, like a zombie, is a bit too much of a coincidence.
Well the main developers definetly know what’s going on and just playing dumb,that’s for sure
yeah, it's so much of a coincidence that it doesn't even sound real.
The Mortal Kombat secret tower fight was actually discovered. I forget the sequence but you push certain buttons and the tower pop up. IIRC it's just a fight against a random character with a skin you don't have from their Kombat League.
I know I'm 6 months late, but let me explain: starting at 1:10 AM UK time, every two hours, you have to press ←↑←→←↑ in the Towers of Time when a meteor appears. You have to do this button combination very quickly, because once the meteor leaves the screen, you have to wait two hours in order to try again. Anyway, if you got it right, a tower will rise in the Summoned Towers section. It's comprised by only one fight against a character with a Kombat League skin, and a ton of modifiers, to the point where the game itself warns you about the tower's difficulty. Beat them, and you get their skin.
Also, the skins are completely random, and you can already own them. I got a tower with the same Shao Kahn skin I already own about five times.
that Ben and Ed egg is so interesting, whoever drummed it up either needs serious help or is an absolute genius
yo that Ben and Ed one is insane. i live in essen and drive by the forest where the grate is located basically every day on my way to work (on the 52 autobahn, the big road on oddheaders screenshot of google maps) yet I've never heard of the game even, let alone bones being found there.
love your channel, oddheader, keep it up!
The Ben and Ed thing was definitely an ARG (alternate/augmented reality game). People use them in advertising all the time to drum up hype, and a lot of times they have both horror and multiple social media elements. The trope of drawing in supposedly outside help (the youtuber) into the story (having him meet with developers) is incredibly common, as well as hidden messages in videos like that. Plus, cryptic drawings and bones hidden in abandoned locations? Oldest trick in the book
.....you probably know all that already I'm just realizing, but from what I can tell this is a pretty well done, long running ARG that evidently isn't over. The one thing I do find odd is that they went the hard horror route with the foot video. Given the nature of their games, even if the concept of Ben and Ed is morbid, it just seemed like a lot. Ah well, maybe it's just a side project they work on between games. But I'd keep an eye on how that progresses, it'll most likely end with the release of the mysterious game referenced in the iPod
This bennnnnnn easter egg sounds like a plot to a horror movie
Wooooow I remember watching the Ben and Ed easter egg unravelling through many videos. I forgot the spanish youtuber was Bers, i thought it was another... Thanks for the memories!
Why does that Ben one sound like some sort of Secret Murder Confession...

Oddheader you cannot just drop that Ben and Ed segment then move on like that didn't traumatize us at 3 in the morning.
