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

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.

And on the bottom left corner of the map you can see the Terminator hand from Terminator 2’s ending
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”

There’s a Ghostface “Easter egg” in one of the Hitman games. I don’t remember which one exactly but there’s a level where you can disguise yourself as the villain of an author’s book which resembles Ghostface.
The Friday the 13th reference goes even deeper. The model of Jason is from Friday the Thirteenth The Game (I think) and the sound that plays when you see him in that clip (not the Halloween theme) is also featured in Friday the Thirteenth The Game.

I wouldn't be surprised if Michael Myers was ripped from DBD.
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
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.

The hallway fight sequence in sifu isn't only referencing the scene in old boy but its also referring to the hallway fight scene in a movie called the raid
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.
The OG back again with another batch of Easter eggs
At 10:27 I thought it was a reference to that one scene from daredevil since you were using punisher
8:46 there’s also Gir from Invader Zim, terminator hand in lava, and bender’s head in between claws

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
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
It’s been a long while since we had an It, Back to the Future, and Titanic Easter Egg in a single game
The tower defense game had a reference to Terminator also. A thumbs up can be seen in the molten steel off to the left.
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
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.

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!

Beta tested in Fallout 76, can confirm that it wasn’t there and only came in around the wastelanders update.
at 8:53 there is also Ger (i think thats how you spell his name) on the little conveyer belt in the top left corner, its a reference to Invader Zim a popular cartoon in the 90s/early 2000s. Its a great show from my childhood and i would know that plucky lil taco loving robot anywhere!

oh and i just seen this one but in the bottom left of the same part there is also a thumbs up in the pool of lava, pretty sure from memory thats from terminator but not sure what one (never really got into those movies)
That chalk door also reminds me of pan's labyrinth. Ophelia had a book as well.
In the "Gollum" Easter egg, there's also another one. Right to the left of it, there's a vat of lava with a hand sticking out with a thumbs up. That's a Terminator reference. That's kinda cool too!
I like that ending theme, it's sick
8:59 On the left of the screen, in those lave crates, is that a hand I see? Maybe a reference to terminator? Maybe?
Daaaammmm that is really some Aewsome and Amazing Easter Eggs I have seen 🤟🏿🤟🏻🤟
at 8:51 you can also see Grr from Invader Zim on the conveyor belt top left as well as the robot’s head from futurama at the top
It never gets old how he says you’ll find this
During 9:06 I noticed that there's a thumbs up on the left side in one of the little lava pits being a reference to terminators scene when he goes in the lava
Bro ur my fav easter eggs KZreadr 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Best video captain eggcellent!👍☺
Woooo, great video
In the "Kingdom Rush Vengeance" footage, you can see GIR from Invader Zim on the robot making machine
8:53 i am not sure if you covered this but on the factory thing conveyor belt you can find gir from the show invader zim.
at 8:56 in the top left corner of the screen near where the money and other things are there is a conveyor belt and on that belt is a blue eyed robot named GIR from the 2001 show Invader Zim!
While you were talking about KINGDOMS RUSH I was looking at zims little robot :D
Special Easter egg There’s a 100% chance of me liking this video
11:46 the awkward silence made me think Jason was going to kindly wave to Micheal
The Scrat easter egg was a surprise. I thought for sure it'd be a Star Wars easter egg, like a disembodied arm or a lightsaber.
Love how the thumbnail has The Punisher in Sifu
Ok, that one with Cloverfield Lane is the first time I've ever seen it referenced. I watched it a few years ago and I knew it looked familiar, just couldn't put my finger on it
Currently 1 58am here in Australia. Staying up just a bit longer to watch this video.
I think the Borderlands games have tons and some of the best Movies and Pop Culture Easter Eggs in all games. here are some I remember right now. B1: the body of "Bruce Maclane" (Bruce Willis + John Maclane) "Mad Mel" (Mad Max + Mel Gibson) Skagzilla and Mothrakk Bpre-seq: an area with a black monolith that when you touch it you see a vision of space and a baby and other crazy stuff 2 robots, 1 golden and tall and the other short and white a gun named "E-GUN" that shoots a laser stream B2: There's a random box with a head inside a lot of guns have movie quotes in the description B3: more movie quotes in guns
did you know if you stand on the scales in hitman 2... Im kidding, Great video
7:49 was funny. "try saying that time 5 fast"
Also at 8:51 if you look at the robots being made you can see a robot with big blue eyes. I think that is a EE to the series Invader ZIM
Chivalry 2 Easter egg is if you get your arm chopped off, a message will pop up saying “tis but a scratch” referencing Monty pithon and the holy grail
Are just gonna ignore how at 5:11 one of the dudes made a reference to Heath Ledger’s “Joker” when he said “It’s not about spending, it’s about sending a message”
Top left 8:55 GIR then eventually Wally will come through too, and terminator bottom left Also top left again a lil towards the right above the machine you can see Benders head
Not sure if anyone has said this but when he's talking about the Shrek reference the mission names is 'Roadsides Picnic' and that's a reference to a popular book that inspired the Metro and S.T.A.L.K.E.R series
In Fallout: New Vegas with the Wild Wasteland perk, the giant rats in Broc Flower Cave will be named "Rodents of Unusual Size", a reference to the movie The Princess Bride, where the giant rats in the Fire Swamp are called "ROUS", or "Rodents of Unusual Size".
"Tower defense games have close to no Easter eggs" TDS Retired/Walt White Cowboy skin: "Am I a joke to you?"
Funfact, the original Kingdom Rush has a lot of references, like saving Freedo, which is a Star Wars reference
In the tower defense game we can see terminator's thumbs up from terminator 2 in the same screen
In kingdom rush vengeance in the clock work factory there’s a thumbs up in the lava from terminator 2 judgement day
In kingdom rush vengeance at 8:51 if you look in the back ground where the robots on the conver belt you can see gir from Invader Zim
We yell out “2319” when ever something bad happens at my work, it’s actually pretty funny.
In kingdom rush vengeance you can also see a thumbs up coming out of the lava a reference to terminator
In 7:25 I realized that Jacqueline Briggs from MK XI does this reference when fighting The Terminator.
Kingdom rush also had gir from invader Zim cycling thru the machine in the top left
At 8:55 if you look at the conveyor belt in the background,you can see Gir from Invader Zim
1:25 It’s that goddamn squirrel
Hey captain eggcellent in the game called the hunter call of the wild some outposts will have a bug zapper and u can literally see it working which u probably might've already covered it in one of ur detail videos and as always amazing work captain eggcellent amazing work 👏🔥😇😎🤯
5:07 I also think it's a reference to the Fallout's loading screen
In the kingdom rush easter egg i saw a hand that was doing a thumbs up in the lava pit wich is an easter egg to the iron giant

Sunset overdrive the first death you showed was also a reference to fallout
3:21 ok, now I have to play this.
I agree about the Shrek reference because people like playing just the first word or most of the first word of All Star in joke videos. Especially while showing someone kicking open a door like Shrek did.
In kingdom rush vengeance you can see the terminator hand sticking giving you a thumbs up out of the lava on the left
8:50 Little robot is GIR!
9:00 you can see gir from invader zim
There's a ton of pop culture references in Borderlands 3. There's a Sniper Rifle thats description says "she's gone from suck to blow." Witch is a reference to Spaceballs And there's even a SpongeBob Refrence
I think the Stranger Things Easter egg is also a reference to the fact that Robert Englund (who also played Freddy Krueger), plays a character in Stranger Things.
I watched the move with the cyberpunk movie pretty good
Sunset overdrive also had a Psycho reference in the DLC
Theres also a reference to bender from Future Rama it's on one of the floaty things
9:10 so I see plenty of references such as teh thumbs up in the lava from terminator 2, bender's head from futurama, the robot from invader zim on teh assembly line along wiht Wall-e from Wall-e, also teh orc there is a semi clear reference to grom hellscream from warcraft 3, more so in warcraft 3 grom flies a purple banner. Hecka little before that there was the warcraft 3's orc's barracks.
Also, Don't know if you saw this, In Vengeance in the lava pool on the left, the thumbs up with the black gloves is a reference to the terminators death in Terminator 2: Judgment Day
In the video at 8:52 there is a terminator reference in one of the lava tanks
There’s also a silence of the lambs Easter egg in sunset overdrive.
So I found another back to the futer Easter egg in a game that I don't think you covered, it's on steam call The coin game, when the person that drop you off at the arcade if you watch the car leave it takes off like the bttf car
in Ark Survival Evolved, if you go to the swamp in the Ragnarok map, you can find Shrek's hut and outhouse, sadly you cant go inside though
I know how late this is but I'd like to chime in for 12:06 by saying that there is technically a Halloween game for the Atari back in 1983, but yea we need something more recent
