Attachment After starting a new game, if you choose to turn left instead of right as the game tells you to, you will see another hotel door open. Inside the room are the couple from the first Dead Island trailer, in which the couple fought off zombies to protect themselves, and their daughter, who tragically turned into a zombie during the fight.

Franchise: Prince of Persia

Although Ubisoft now owns the rights to the "Prince of Persia" name, the original IP rights are still owned by Jordan Mechner, the developer of the first game. This means that should Ubisoft want to make a new "Prince of Persia" game, they must ask Jordan Mechner's for the right to do so.

Attachment Nightwing's Regime costume is Damian Wayne. This makes Nightwing one of several characters to have different people as alternative costumes. Spoiler:It is revealed during the game that the alternate dimension version of Damian killed Dick Grayson, the current true Nightwing, took his mantle and joined Superman's regime.

The other characters with different people as costumes are Green Lantern (with a John Stewart costume) and Superman's Cyborg outfit (which is actually a character named Hank Henshaw.)

Duke Nukem Forever
Duke Nukem Forever (2011)

During the first fight with an Assault Commander boss, Duke says, "I'm going to kill you old style!" This is a reference to the Youtube video Ventrilo Harassment where a Ventrilo user is harassed by someone with a Duke Nukem soundboard. The voice actor for Duke Nukem, John St. John, has mentioned in interviews that he has seen the Ventrillo Harassment video, which probably lead to the line being in the game.

"It's awesome, especially the Ventrillo Harassment! I LOVE that fans have used my voice to create some very funny videos and soundboards."

Attachment The term "Werehog" is derived from the words werewolf and hedgehog. However, this is a misnomer, considering that the "were" in werewolf derives from the Old English "wer", meaning "man", which means he is incorrectly referred to as a "Manhog". A "Manhog" would be a man who can morph into a pig, or someone who is half man, half pig.

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.

Mana Khemia 2: Fall of Alchemy

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.

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.
