Entrambi by Insomniac

The design for the "Stalker" was based on the "Landstalker" from Ratchet: Deadlocked, they share similar names and movements as well as both having machine guns and a secondary mortar attack.

Copertina modificata:

Syphon Filter 3

The game's cover artwork originally featured the American flag and green gaseous fumes, and on the back the words "WANTED: Deadly Force Authorized", "deadly arsenal" and "terrorists". However, due to the then recent 9/11 terrorist attacks and the anthrax scare, the game had been recalled with these removed and the back text changed to make it more politically correct. This pushed back the game from its original September 25th, 2001 release to early November 2001. Some copies with the original box art had already shipped, making that version a collector's item and dubbed the "9/11 American Flag Cover". It also came in a dual case, despite the game only having a single disc.

Ratto gigante

In Chapter 8, the player can perform a series of actions to make a giant rat appear and run down the road.

Frecce esplosive:

The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening

If the player has the bow and the bomb equipped, and presses both the bow and bomb buttons at the same time, Link will shoot the arrow with a bomb attached. Bomb arrows in this game are thought by some to be a glitch; however, this has never been confirmed nor denied by the developers.
