Starting off in the crysis easter egg, I was thinking “oh boy, another Star Wars reference” so it made me pretty happy to see Scrat. Also cause I love Ice Age
I thought it was gonna be The Thing.
Exactly what I thought too
Yeah I thought a wampa was about to appear or maybe Luke’s lightsaber stuck in the ice
Yeah, great movie, with at least two good sequels.
And then it slumped hard. Stupid unnecessary followups.
I hope for more Ice Age Easter Eggs.
Michael: “You saying you’re better than me”
Jason: “So what if I am!”
Wrong. It would Go more Like this:
Michael: *Heavy breathing*
Jason: …
🐸🥊🐸
Jason: Yes
8:44 I see a reference not only to the lord of the rings but also to the terminator. If you look at the lower left corner you will see a familiar hand sticking out of the lava
It’s on the left bottom corner of the map is where the hand is
@Sentient Cloud I pointed it out on his orginal video but I don’t think he ever saw it
I got annoyed he didn’t see that
Good catch
And bender
How Micheal Vs Jason hasn’t been an actual movie yet I’ll never know.
Yeah about that game. How is she holding that flashlight 💣🔦💣
Because Jason would absolutely destroy Myers and this is why Freddy is the better combatant and not Myers
The ending would have to be like the ending of Death becomes her… 😂
@Joey A vs. Implies against each other
they would be unstoppable if they teamed up
I love how you get silent to wait for the easteregg to be visible. I like to guess it myself and its so fun 🙂 also 9:05 everyone watches Golum but misses that thumbs up sticking from the molten iron on the left 😀
@Armando Roman Yeah I noticed gir too.
Well he has to go silent to show it off. It’s kinda obvious.
Is it just me or is that gir from “invader zim” on the belt on the top left in the same clip
7:40 there’s also an Easter egg (dunno if you covered it yet) referencing this in Mortal Kombst 11. If terminator and Jacqui Briggs fight he’ll say he accomplished his mission after jacqui asks “is it true that sub zero’s now plain zero”
At 8:50, you can also see GIR, the robot companion to Zim from Invader Zim, on the conveyor belt in the top left. Not a movie detail, but one from a show.
There’s also a Bender head above & to the right of that conveyor belt!
@Esmee Vieth say it again, make it more likely that he’ll see it.
Ah just noticed it and wanted to comment about it but I guess you beat me too it XD
8:45 if you look closely to the left side of the screen, inside the silo (or probably a smelter) you can see the famous thumbs up from the movie Terminator 2
@Zero_Eden oh I missed that, thanks 🙂
He did that already
Beta tested in Fallout 76, can confirm that it wasn’t there and only came in around the wastelanders update.
Not an Easter egg, but I was replaying Astros Playroom on PS5, and in the main hub, after you punch other Astros and they start following you, when you start to enter a new level, like Cooling Springs, if you turn around and look at them, they’ll start waving bye excitedly. I probably didn’t explain it correct and it may not be that big, but it’s a detail I liked.
@Quinny Binny there robots just use the reprogramming excuse you just knocked there circuits out of place
They are weird if hurting them makes them like you
@Zero_Eden oh okay I must’ve been blind while playing the game thanks for clearing that up.
Big detail
Thats not a thing at all
Im pretty sure at 5:22, when you died in Sunset Overdrive, you ragdolled, and you could here the flatline sound from either garrys mod or half life, especially since you ragdolled like in garrys mod!
Because…
Flatlining is a real thing?
In the Ghostbusters game, if you keep checking the answering machine between levels, eventually one message will say “Who Busts the Ghostbusters?” a reference to Watchmen
I don’t know if this has been covered, but in Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune, if you shoot an enemy in certain spots (for example, the foot) they recoil and start to lift their leg that was shot up.
I love how for the shrek reference in serious Sam… they just write “Somebody…” I legit expected someone to pop out of the outhouse for a sec
Seeing that ending one really makes me realize how interesting classic slasher could translate to a good videogame. Nightmare on Elm Street maybe a survival type game trying to keep your character awake long enough to learn the origins of Freddy and how to defeat him, if you daze out or run out of energy and sleep you go into the combat against Freddy in dream warrior sequences. Or just as well with Hellbound, someone opens the box so it’s your character vs deadites trying to close it and send them back. A fun royal esque crossover have all the classic slashers together on a map and the goal is to become the most feared so it’s how many kills and how many gruesome scary kills to win.
Friday the 13th isn’t Freddy Krueger
@Slimmdy how did you know?!??!?
In Kingdom Rush Vengeance, if you looked in the opposite corner of the Golum easter egg, there is a slight chance that on the conveyor belt Gir from Invade Zim will appear. It actually happens in this video. Keep a look out for the robot with the big blue eyes
The tower defense game had a reference to Terminator also. A thumbs up can be seen in the molten steel off to the left.
The OG back again with another batch of Easter eggs
I like your content. I just noticed that most of the games you feature are shooters for some reason. I guess shooting games tend to have more easter eggs than other genres.
Ice age was one of my favorite movie when I 12 and I can’t believe it’s been 20 years since it was released
