Most of you know that I
Love a good Easter egg in videogames usually when a video game references another video game in the form of an easter egg
it's a light-hearted nod
I mean it's a nod pay homage to another franchise or a company but
Sometimes game developers use Easter eggs as an
opportunity to take a little jab at their competition to troll their competition what is up everybody chaos here and today
That's what we're gonna be looking at ten of the rudest Easter eggs
throughout gaming history these were not nice these were not put in the game to be all
Light-hearted and funny be sure to let me know which one is your favorite in the comments in which one you think was the most
harsh
at number 10 dead duke nukem in
Serious Sam 2
Now this is a fun jab at Duke Nukem and he kind of deserves it Duke Nukem made quite a name for himself by making
fun of other video games and pop culture
Characters so it's only natural that he would get on the nerves of other
Developers just a little bit and Serious Sam 2 was released in 2005 at which point dude Nukem Forever
Had already been in development for eight years so developers crow team decided
Well we're gonna troll him a little bit at one point
While roaming through the jungle you can find a skeleton hanging from a tree with sunglasses
blonde hair in a rocket shoved up his butt at which point Sam will say dude you've been hanging there like
forever which was an obvious jab at how long do Nukem Forever had been in development plus keep in mind this was back in
2005 and Duke Nukem Forever still wouldn't be released for another six years
at number 9
The dead assassin in the witcher 2
Now assassin's creed is one of the main examples of a franchise that started off
excellent and original but ended up spinning its wheels for too long before needing a full makeover but I will say Assassin's Creed Odyssey
Was a ton of fun
Despite how repetitious the games got during the 7th console generation they were still hugely successful which led to plenty of jokes at their expense
and one of my favorite Assassin's Creed jabs comes from The Witcher 2 early on in the game you'll come across a pile of hay
With a man in it while you're roaming around and he slammed into the pavement next to it and his head is cracked wide
Open this is an obvious reference to the Assassin's from Assassin's Creed I guess this one
didn't stick that epic landing this month's giveaways for a new Playstation

At number 8 fish a.i. In payday 2 when the 8th gen of consoles
Was being hyped up a lot of game publishers like
Activision and EA were trying to come up with ways to take advantage of the new hardware leading to them
Sometimes taking things a little too far in press conferences one infamous instance of this
Was that the original reveal for Call of Duty ghosts in which
Activision made a comment
about how advanced the artificial intelligence for fish was going to be in the new game leading to the creation of the fish AI
meme but in payday 2
Developers overkill decided to take a little jab at the Titanic FPS franchise and if you get a bag of cash and then you take
it to the ocean you throw it in the fish will swim away from it and you'll get an achievement called fish AI
number 7 dead dragon born in doom
2016 Skyrim is insanely popular even to this day I mean it really is and I can't remember the last time I saw a single-player
Game see so much success
For so many years you can bet the Bet that bethesda is going to keep on milking it for all it's worth but another great single-player game
Was the 2016 doom reboot which was also published by Bethesda although it was developed by id Software
during development id probably felt that Skyrim
was stealing a bit of their thunder it got a little salty so they decided to throw in a playful jab and
Elder Scrolls while you're exploring hell you can find a secret cave even when you head all the way to the back of this cave
You will find a skeleton wearing the Dragonborn helmet with an arrow sticking out of its knee I guess the Dragonborn
Wasn't cut out for hell but we know doom guy can handle it
at number 6
Frank West sucks in left 4 dead 2 part of what made left 4 dead so popular and unique at the time of its release
was the fact that it made zombies actually
threatening in a lot of zombie games at the time like Resident Evil 5 in Dead Rising the undead were kind of slow methodical
Unimpressive and they allowed you to mow them down by the hundreds without a whole lot of effort but in left 4 dead
zombies were very quick they would chase you at full speed
Even if they got the slightest glimpse of you and a little jab at the slower zombie games valve decided to include an
environmental Easter Egg that references
Frank West the protagonist of Dead Rising
in one of the safe houses you can find a message on the wall that reads out of film no helicopter
zombies are too fast not going to make it Frank West
I guess valve didn't think Frank would have been able to keep up with their form and version of the zombies
at Number five we have some Star Wars lovin here, well not really love but
we've got dead Luke Skywalker and Duke Nukem 3d like I said Duke Nukem is all about taking jabs at other
Franchises which is kind of ironic because it really hasn't been many good games in the Duke Nukem series but with that being said
Duke Nukem 3d is one of the best games it was a pretty awesome game but it
Was full of funny Easter eggs and pop-culture references one of the best of them is the pretty gruesome Easter Egg Dearing at one level
upon straying off the main path just a little bit you will come across a cape and Duke will come across Luke Skywalker
dismembered and hanging upside down
From the ceiling yikes it it is definitely a jabber in homage whatever you want to say tribute
to Luke in the ice cave on Hoth and at the Empire Strikes Back
at Number four we have duty calls in Bulletstorm raise your hand if you remember Bulletstorm it was an over-the-top first-person shooter from
epic games that's right the people behind fortnight and Gears of War and people can fly the people behind painkiller and it featured insane weaponry
Fast paced gameplay and tons of blood and gore but it couldn't stop it
There so bullet storm
was the opposite of every other FPS on the market at the time so the developers well
they decided to take that fact a little further and include a full-on parody game of cod 4
Along with it called duty calls duty
Calls is a short single-player game that just digs and jabs into Call of Duty and pretty much all the other modern military shooters and
honestly it's pretty funny you should definitely check it out if you've never played it a lot of people have never heard of duty calls
At number 3 sonic in the trash in Donkey Kong Country
2 now Nintendo usually isn't the kind of company you would expect a rude easter egg from but this
One from dkc2 is deserving of a spot on today's list
At one point in the game you can find the video game Hall of Fame and in there you will find Cranky's video game
heroes
Which is a little gallery of other Nintendo characters like Mario link Yoshi and many many more
the next to the gallery is a trash can with a sign that says no
hopers and next to that trash can or the iconic red shoes of one blue
Sonic the Hedgehog and I guess
Nintendo really didn't like Sonic at that time when he was first introduced to the gaming world they get along now
but not back then and have you guys seen the teaser for the upcoming a live
real-life Sonic movie let me know what you think about that
at Number two John Romero's head on a stake in doom 2 this is one of the most famous video game
Easter eggs of all time for those that don't know John Romero is one of the
Masterminds behind doom and quake as well as dekatana but he would probably be probably four he'd forget that one ok
Well he definitely knew what he was doing with game development. He's, also known for being well
He had kind of an attitude ok
someone at id Software clearly wasn't a fan of him during the development of
Doom 2 because there is an easter egg in the game where you can actually go into a hidden area of the game and find
John Romero's
Decapitated head on a stake and I wonder if ID ever figured out who was behind that because
I just I don't see that going well I really don't finding out who actually
Designed that level and putting that in there that is that's a pretty harsh Easter Egg. I mean it really is and at number one
We're going to duke nukem forever power armor is for the p-word that's right the P word I'm keeping it
Pg-13 here people and this is the infamous line from one of the worst video games ever made dude Nukem Forever
Was in development for more than a decade and when he came out the world pretty much agreed that it should have stayed dead
One of the worst things about the game is how
Confidently it references it makes fun of other games as if it
Was something amazing and early on in the game Duke takes a pretty hefty jab at Halo or
maybe I don't know maybe it's halo and
Maybe it's doom. I don't know before heading into battle duke is approached by a friendly soldier who says
We've got your green power armor here and ready to go it was halo for sure at which point duke responds by saying power armor
is for the p-word which is an obvious jab at Master Chief of the Halo games while this joke could have worked better in a
better game it really just comes across as annoying due to how awful Duke Nukem Forever
Was and how great halo and Master Chief were and there were some salty Halo fans when this one happened come on
I mean come on come on
Duke is not going to last two seconds
against
he's not gonna last against Duke guy or against Master Chief but that's what Duke does he trolls and there you go guys
Those are ten of the rudest
Easter eggs
ever found in
video games now there are thousands of Easter eggs and there's probably a lot more that are pretty harsh so you let me know one
