Mordecai's official profile on the Borderlands 2 website states that he is colorblind. Borderlands 2 lead writer, Anthony Burch, is also colorblind, and may be inspiration for this character trait.

Attachment The Fused Shadow from Twilight Princess bears a striking similarity to Majora's Mask. It is highly possible that Majora's Mask was created by the same tribe who made the fused shadow, known as The Interlopers. This is made even more probable due to the fact that Twili are seen frequently wearing masks, as Zant and his Guard both wear masks, as well as the Shadow Beasts. In addition, when you steal the Ordon Shield from the village in Twilight Princess, Midna attempts to wear it on her face, like you would a mask.

Attachment It's possible the NPC "Party Girl" is a reference to the character "Pinkie Pie" from the TV show, "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic". Her hair style, color scheme, general demeanor and dialogue suggests a similarity between the two. Some of her potential names are "Trixy" and "Sparkle", possibly also referencing characters from the series.

Attachment The "Undead Hunter Outfit" found in the Undead Nightmare DLC strongly resembles the one worn by the character Ash in the movie "Army of Darkness". This is very likely a reference to the film, as the name of the outfit changes to "Army of the Undead" once the player is able to finish the game's story.

There is a theory that the main character, John Marston, has a weakened or blind left-eye. Evidence supporting the theory is Marston's "Deadly-Assassin" outfit which includes an eye-patch that goes over his left-eye, during cut-scenes Marston seems to turn his head over to the left slightly to possibly see more with his right eye, sometimes when using Dead-eye, Marston will comment "I think like I got my eye back", after Dutch Spoiler:shoots the woman during Great Men Are Not Always Wise, John does not take the opportunity to shoot Dutch as he runs through the doorway on John's left side. The other lawmen make a comment towards John about not shooting him, too.And the Undead version of John Marston has a missing left-eye.

There's also another interesting bit hinting at this, which is a comparison between John Marston and Johnny Klebitz from Grand Theft Auto IV; Both share similar names (John/Johnny), both rode in gangs that left them both for dead and come from rough (and criminal) backgrounds, both have antagonists named Bill/Billy, both had a girlfriend/wife that was considered "every man's", both are forced to work with the government to save themselves and those they care about, and it is implied Johnny has a weakened/blind eye. ("Oh. I should use my good eye.")

Attachment It's thought that the four characters playable in the multi player and story mode games are based on four of the main Sonic the Hedgehog characters - Billy is Sonic, Chick Poacher is Tails, Bantam Scrambled is Knuckles and Rolly Roll is Amy. The Hatcher characters use similar colors and copy poses as well. For example, on the game's box art, Billy is in the same pose as Sonic from official Sonic Adventure 2 artwork.

Attachment Dante's character redesign shares resemblances with the director of the game, Tameem Antoniades. Tameem stated in an interview that he did not intend for Dante to look like him, as he explained that Dante is "a decade and a half younger than me, way better looking... The only thing he's got is black hair. And he's male. I didn't design the character. I didn't go to our designers and say, 'I think it's a really good idea if we make the new Dante look like me, because I want to be in the game.' They'd laugh at me. They'd throw me out the window."
