[Strider]

Zombie, Robot, o entrambi?

Cromwell: è il maggiordomo di MacKenzie ed è anche un inventore geniale. Non si sa se è uno zombie maggiore di 300 anni o un robot, ma quando la protagonista si trova in difficoltà sarà sempre pronto ad aiutarla.

La leggendenda del 3-13 archer

In Chapter 13, "Blood Contract", the objective is to last against an army for twelve turns with the help of ally NPCs. One of the NPCs is an archer manning a ballista in the top left corner of the map. Nicknamed "3-13 Archer", this NPC has gained a reputation in the Fire Emblem community for attacking and surviving numerous enemy encounters, going as far as leaving his turret to block advancing enemy units.

Vuoi una Trish?

Resident Evil: Revelations

In the cafeteria of Queen Zenobia, there's a soda vending machine with a brand named "Trish". This is likely a reference to Trish, a character from the Devil May Cry series.

Uno dei glitch meno noto ma anche uno dei più pericolosi della prima gen

La smetti di fissarmi?

Metal Gear Solid

After the cut-scene inside the bathroom with Meryl, if the player goes into 1st person mode and stares at her, she will ask Snake to "stop staring at her like that." If the player continues to stare at her in 1st person mode, her skin will slowly turn redder from blushing.

Una certa somiglianza:

Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow

The enemy "Triton" looks very much like the Triton fountain on the Piazza Barberini in Italy.

Not in the virtual console

When you play any of the two Oracle games on a Game Boy Advance there will a special shop in Lynna Village called the Advance Shop or 100 Rupee Advance Shop. All the items on sale cost 100 rupees: a Gasha Seed, a Magic Ring and an Advance Ring. In Ages, it's adjacent to the Shooting Gallery and in Seasons to the Know-It-All Birds Hut. However, it's not available in the 3DS Virtual Console version since it runs on the Game Boy emulator. The shop is run by Stockwell, who is amazed you found the place.

Era meglio non farlo apparire

The character Victor Belmont was originally planned to appear in the cancelled Dreamcast game "Castlevania: Resurrection". Lords of Shadow 2 is the first Castlevania game to be released that Victor appears in.

Crasha:

Medievil II

In 'The Professor's Lab' level, if the player completed a level and also obtained a chalice there, go to Professor Hamilton Kift's room, then leave his room to touch the chalice on the weapon table. By stepping on the chalice button, the game will crash.

Piano fallito

Capcom wanted to have Reno, who does speak English, to voice Jacques. This plan fell through however due to Reno not having enough time to do Jacques' English lines, so Paul Mercier replaced him

L'orgoglio di un creatore

Shinji Mikami, the creator of Resident Evil, didn't play RE5 until 2011, a whole two years after the game's release. This is because he didn't like the idea that someone else had made the game.

Un episodio importante:

The Adventure of Batman & Robin

The Seventh Level, "Riddle Me This...", is based off of Episode 40 of Batman: The Animated Series, "If You're So Smart, Why Aren't You Rich?"

• Both include the Riddler as the main antagonist.
• Batman and Robin have to run through a maze designed by the Riddler.
• The title cards are visually similar.
• The same Minotaur that is fought in the cartoon is a boss in the game.
• The riddle featured in the cartoon is the same riddle featured in the game.

Clear reference

The in-game restaurant Barzini's is a reference to The Godfather, which features a crime family named the Barzinis.

Maledetti moralisti

There was originally plans to make the skills masteries reflect the Olympian Gods's powers and attributes. This is vaguely similar to Loki's faith system, another action RPG. For religious concerns, THQ forced Iron Lore Entertainment to change this so it would not offend Moral Guardians.

La vendetta di Heihachi:

Tekken

On the PlayStation disc, there's an unused face sprite of Kazuya. He was planned to be a save icon, but was replace with Heihachi in the final game.

Uno dei glitch meno noto ma anche uno dei più pericolosi della prima gen

In pratica, è uguale al 90% agli altri glitch.

Questa la posso dire io va...

Soul Sacrifice Delta NON ha mai ricevuto una release fisica in occidente pur essendo una delle poche vere esclusive VITA

In pratica, è uguale al 90% agli altri glitch.

Il principio della stragrande maggioranza delle magagne di prima gen è quello.
Sono gli effetti a differire.

Mazinga Z:

Mega Man 3

The attack "Hard Knuckle" may possibly be a reference to the manga/anime "Mazinger Z (マジンガーZ)", in which the titular robot uses a very similar attack known as "Rocket Punch (ロケットパンチ)". The colors Mega Man also has while using this weapon bear a strong similarity to the colors of Mazinger Z's arms and fists.

Sì, dipende tutto dalle stats che Ditto copia. + 1 o - 1 e cambia tutto il glitch.

 

[Geddoe]

Anche qui una ve la possa dire io...

I numerosissimi riferimenti al ciclo arturiano presenti nel titolo tramite nomi e situazioni, sono stati completamente (ed insensatamente) rimossi nella versione occidentale.
