Took me way too long to realize that the "See, I did say that!" is an Austin Powers reference
1:48 They were almost able to hold hands. Wait, shouldn't their kid be just outside their room thrown from the window?
6:54 the silencer actually looks like the lego star wars lightsaber hilt used to make ‘snipers/rifles’
Corny line from Witcher 3? That shit was so badass haha.
5:44 That’s just how British people sound.
8:35 I noticed he said 2016 instead of 2018, no hate of course!
almost 1 mil definitely deserve it 💪🏼
Dead island will always be one of my favourite game. Great memories
Thats why it doesn't hurt to some exploring.
In cyberpunk 2077 after visiting the Jinguji clothes store in the city center twice, a cyberpsycho will attack the store, once you kill him, a max tax squad will dispatch, including a the cyberpsycho from the trailer titled “bullets”
Dead Island 1 isnt better than Dead Island 2 in any way 😀
Dead Island 2 is just perfect and amazing
In the moment with dying light the trailer is happening at the start of the game when Crane is doing job for spike to set up the traps, spike says its a traps for 'brenkens mission'
In Team Forteess 2, before the Meet The Spy trailer came out, the Sniper had no scar on his face. Afterwards, he does have one. In the trailer, it is shown that the Spy slashed at the Sniper's face with his knife before killing him.
Wow. Those were lowkey pretty cool. I wish more games did these.
Hope you do another trailer moment in game part2
in the dead island one, wasn't the little girl on the ground outside of the window?
also in the original dying light the final mission theres a section where you are running away from volatiles in the same area brecken and his crew go through in the trailer so in a way you get to play through the trailer segment of run boy run in dying light
i expect resident evil 2 remake to be in this ngl
Why is Jim becoming a magician?
u always get me with heres teh thing joke
Hidden secrets.
You forgot Cyberpunk 2077
8:52 I thought that was a nod to The troll under the bridge fairytale, kinda funny that i had a cooler idea the the devs themselves
The dying light trailer was literally showing Brecken's night run just after Crane set up the traps.
leaving out FAR CRY 3 burried head in this video is atrocious
Huh the subscribe button briefly got a red outline when he said subscribe at 0:30
(Dunno if you have to watch from 20 seconds prior, to trigger it)
Here's an easter egg for a future video:
In dead by daylight following the release of the five nights at Freddy's crossover chapter, the are some easter eggs and details you can find in the game.
-While using the yellow rabbit skin from the fnaf movie for springtrap, Matthew Lillard, the actor portraying William Afton aka Springtrap from the movie also does the voicelines for the game and has some unique dialogues while playing against Nicolas Cage.
-If you look closely on the animatronic heads at the parts and service room in the freddy fazbear's map, the eyes will actually follow you around.
-There's a rare possibility to discover Chica's cupcake in one of the lockers in the freddy fazbear's pizza map.
-There's a secret jumpscare on the pizzeria where a bloody endoskeleton will appear from the vents.
Look, that's fair. But I will love DI2 miles more for it's energy and combat. The Moment I left the beaches, DI 1 became a slow, Painful slog, that left me so bitter I didn't even bother playing riptide.
I might be a little biased.
Cyberpunk 2077 Cinematic Trailer pretty much the same on how the prologue ends
Dunno why but it feels like I haven't seen one of your vids in ages. This was a good one.
btw just a nerdy thing i noticed , that in the batman game isnt supposed to use that caliber , tar 21 uses 5.56 the ammo in the game is 50 cal
I’ll let you decide if this counts as an Easter egg. In Ark Survival Ascended on the newly remastered map Ragnarok, at the map coordinates 42.3, 16.5. You can find Shreks home, complete with the wooden outhouse slightly off to the side.
This map in the original game was fanmade, which is why I question if this even counts. But I only bring it up now because the remastered version was made by the official game devs and they chose to keep it in and even enhance its similarities to the movie.
4:29 if you use UV flashlight on a wall in that room with dead womans you will see hiden writing on wall same as in trailer
3:04 that action in trailer is after crane arrived at harran because of that we at start of the game sets everything for brecken mission and spike even say that
If they have references in Dead Island 2 about the trailer they released a decade ago, that'd be legendary!
This is for the details videos, in still wakes the deep base game in the beginning of the horror section of the game you'll enter the lounge area and behind a door with a bright glowing window a crew mate is being turned, but the same glowing door is the same door you enter in the dlc sirens rest
It's been a while since I played Dead Rising 1, but isn't there also a dead body outside the hotel that's a reference to the one that fell out the window?
It's such a shame that Dead Island 2 didn't have that jogger zombie's body on the road in Venice Beach, would have been a nice callback to the original games easter egg.
Hey Egg, a small video game detail that i think is fun is in Counter Strike 2 on the map Grail. The map takes place in a mini putt theme park type of setting and theres actually two holes that you can play that are a little tricky to get in but it rewards you with a little celebration for each. I feel like theres another piece to make it a full EE but after 10 mins or so of looking around I gave up. Just thought it was neat and wanted to share because in an actual game you would never have time to make it most likely lol.
See, he did say that
0:56 I'm convinced this has to be a Ted Bundy reference
hi how are you
Tekken 8's final fight against Kazuya is almost the same as the reveal trailer that was shown in the Playstation State Of Play
I wish i could sub 50k time for you lad.
I paused at 9:45 and I can’t stop laughing 😂
Joel wanna play some golf 😈
I played Dead Island 1 maybe a year ago. The older I get, the more I appreciate that game.
god of war came out in 2018 not 2016
