Attachment On a shelf in the game, there are two awards, one of which is shaped like a Rupee from The Legend of Zelda and another shaped like the TARDIS from Doctor Who. The Rupee award reads "Awarded For: Most Bushes Cut And Most Pots Smashed", and the TARDIS award reads "Award For: Largest Interior With Smallest Exterior". Additionally, an award can be found for "World Not Ending" in 2012, a reference to the Mayan calendar and the belief that the world was set to end in 2012.

On the map "Point of Contact" in Extinction mode, shooting the glowing L, then O, and then the L again on the "Gil's Lodge Motel" sign will display the acronym "LOL" on the screen, and cause all aliens killed within the next few minutes to explode into golden martian plushies.

Attachment The I.E.D.s have a picture of a dinosaur drawn on them, along with the words "Playful Secrets". This seems like it might be a reference to the competing [urli=series/battlefield/]Battlefield[/urli] series, which frequently features dinosaur-themed easter eggs.

The second Extinction map, "Nightfall", has an easter egg very similar to the "LOL" easter egg on the first Extinction map, "Point of Contact".

Four of the transformers on the utility poles will spark in a random order, and shooting them in that order will cause the word "ZAP!!!" to appear on the screen. After doing so, every enemy killed within four to five minutes will explode parts of snowmen.

During the campaign mission "All or Nothing", the player must defend an American aircraft carrier from the Federation. Eventually, the player must jump across to a platform aboard a carrier vessel.

In the map "Showtime", if the player climbs up to a certain broken window and looks through it they can see a poster for Gun 2 on the back wall. This poster is a reference to the 2005 Activision game, "Gun."
