Attachment Gears were a type of block that were available in Indev 0.31 which could be used in a similar way to redstone. They could only be placed on the side of blocks, and were never available in the release versions. In earlier builds players could hack the game to make them accessible, but the files were removed in later updates.

The English version of Mana Khemia 2's title is actually a mistranslation. Mana Khemia 2's Japanese title is "マナケミア2 〜おちた学園と錬金術士たち〜", or "Mana Khemia 2: ~The Fallen Academy and the Alchemists".

The Japanese title is also more reflective of the game's plot, as the story has more to do with an alchemy school's decline than it is with the decline of alchemy itself.

The original Japanese version had voice acting for the entire game. The American version (with exceptions for the bosses and some cut scenes, which still have the Japanese voices) removed all of them to avoid confusion between translation dubs. This was fixed in the sequel, Mega Man ZX Advent.

Metal Shark Player's Japanese name is actually Metal Shark Prayer. His English name is the result of a mistranslation of R and L being identical in Japanese. The reason he is called Prayer is because he resurrects other Mavericks (these being Sting Chameleon, Magna Centipede, and Blast Hornet), thus he "prays". It is also worth mentioning that when he resurrects the Mavericks, he shouts their Japanese names.

In the Prepare to Die Edition, the player has an opportunity to save a young Sif from the Abyss. After doing so and summoning Sif for a boss fight deep in the Abyss, if the player has not yet defeated Sif in the present, the opening cutscene will change.

Sif appears to recognize the player, and is reluctant to do battle with them, but finds it necessary, likely due to Sif swearing to protect the grave or the Covenant of Artorias. This cutscene makes the hobbling animation when Sif is at low health even more heart-wrenching for some players.

Attachment After you find Cloud in the hospital after he falls in the Lifestream, he will mumble incoherent things when you speak to him. One of the things he mumbles is "zeno... gias..." This is a translation error and a reference to the game Xenogears. In the PC port of Final Fantasy VII, the spelling is corrected to "Xeno... gears".

Cloud also says "A billion mirror fragments.... small.... light..." which is a reference to the vocal song of Xenogears, Small Two of Pieces. One of the lines to the song is "Broken mirror, a million shades of light".

The boss fight with Mz. Ruby is a rhythm based mini-game. In the HD Sly Collection, the music in the fight is remixed. Because of this, the music is no longer synchronized with her attacks. This make the boss fight much more difficult in comparison to the original version.

The whispers you hear when using the Possession Vigor is dialogue from Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet being played in reverse.

A longer version with some extra lines can be found by extracting the audio from the PC version of Bioshock Infinite's game files. Part of this is used when you get the Vigor. The rest can be heard being whispered to victims of Possession during combat.

Attachment There is a zombie called a Dancing Zombie that looks like an undead Michael Jackson from Thriller (that even does the moonwalk). He even summons back-up dancers that look like they are from 80's. His description says "Any resemblance between Dancing Zombie and persons living or dead is purely coincidental." After the death of Michael Jackson, the zombie was redesigned to look more like a disco dancer, and the back up dancer were redesigned to look like they were from the same time.

In the French and German releases of the game, the character of Nimdok and his chapter as a whole were removed, because the chapter was based around a Nazi concentration camp. For nearly 30 years, it was rumored that the removal of Nimdok's chapter made the best ending unattainable. However, this was eventually disproven in 2023, when YouTube user StarlightPumpkins uploaded a video laying the rumor to rest by successfully achieving the best ending in the French release.

Attachment Exdeath's original Japanese name is (エクスデス, Ekusudesu) or Exodus. This is worth noting as it would appear that Exdeath made appearances prior to Dissidia. In Final Fantasy XII, there is an esper called Exodus both in the English and Japanese versions that seems to resemble the knight form of Exdeath. In Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, a Totema called Exodus resembles Exdeath's tree form.
