10 Easter Eggs HIDDEN For Video Game CHEATERS

[@wherethetatosat]

At first I was confused why so many developers would hide stuff only available to cheaters. But then I realized, by cheating and further exploring the game, you're taking more time to appreciate all the little details they put in.

[@Voron_Aggrav]

due to games like CoD and the likes cheating has gotten a seriously negative connotation due to it becoming primarily a Multiplayer orientated problem, when with Single Player you're just trying to get the most enjoyment out of the game as you can in your own way so I can indeed imagine developers wanting to take time to reward those willing to take the most out of their title

[@weeveferrelaine6973]

@@Voron_Aggrav I'm a game programmer, and I hide jokes and puns in my code usually a couple times each project. Sure, someone somewhere might read it, but chances are it's just going to be between me, and whoever else eventually takes the time to read the code I wrote out of boredom, probably while maintaining/inheriting it. I think there's definitely an element of wanting to add a bit of soul to our work.. Like it makes craftsmen appreciate their creation more when they see it, and they get to form positive memories from these little secrets or jokes embedded into them, and those memories can be a form of self-inspiration and encouragement.

[@duckling4465]

As long as you're " cheating " for your amusement and in games which aren't multiplayer and especially does not make the gameplay experience of others bad, it's fun to cheat. I still do in games and try to speed run them or breeze through them. Love the mods and funny cheats.

[@nateh254]

Hell so long as you’re not using cheats to abuse the game and use like god mode or sum who cares? Like if i want to change the skin of gun to a chicken, why not?? It’s still the exact same gun n damage n reload etc just looks like a chicken now 🤣 Cuz why not blow people away with a literal chicken

[@zwein1817]

Same. I buy all my single player games on pc, so I can have fun with mods and try new stuff out. I don’t understand how it’s fun for players to turn on god mode and ruin whatever the game is for players in PvP.

Agreed, cheats once upon a time were coded for us to use (single player games before online) cheats were shared in the back of gaming mags n mags used to come with cheat books once a month, before games held your hand through every moment and actually were difficult even on easy mode cheats were a must especially as kids

Also notable for the Deluxe edition of The Stanley Parable is the bottom of the mind control facility Easter egg ending. People went out of bounds easily on the first version so the deluxe version disabled jumping but you can still get there with a little bit of jank movement which prompts the narrator to riff on you finding it and the memes of the people that kept sending team screenshots of that area. Additional points for one of those screenshots actually being a promoted screenshot by the devs.

There is a way to get to the secret room in a Link to the Past and it does not involve cheating or clipping. It actually involves finding a specific tree, blasting it off with a bomb and entering the tree with another explosion. No cheating involved, just a nice little easter egg.

[@KingWesleyIV]

As a game developer I'd like to point out that many of these things are leftovers by the developers during production that sometimes goes unnoticed until a cheater digs up the old files. OR they are an intentional mechanic made by the developers to aid in their own development processes, such as with the Smash Bros. Characters. The way smash is programmed makes it infeasible to custom make 300+ individual characters. Instead they have one single base character (the wireframe actually) that is programmed to accept action based input regardless of where from. Then the player "possesses" the "pawn" to give it input. If you are familiar with modern day game dev you may understand these things better. You'd be surprised how few games fully implement this mechanic however. Smash is a good example of devs making total use of all of their assets.

[@R3AL-AIM]

First play through I don't cheat... second playthroughs I will for fun. I don't cheat in competitive games and find it extremely annoying to do so.

[@ArchwraithRaziel]

Another notable easter egg I've heard about comes from Paper Mario on the N64. You don't need to be cheating with anything like a GameShark or whatever to see these easter eggs, just really good at performing some very specific glitches. These glitches are typically used by speedrunners to skip through the game. Anyways, this easter egg can be found in the opening areas of the game by performing some very specific jumps near the bottom of the screen in order to access a part of Toad Town that's normally blocked off until the completion of the chapter. Interacting with any NPCs in this part of Toad Town normally soft-locks the game. This occurs in the North American release, but in the original Japanese release, these NPCs have personalized dialogue such as "This message should not appear", among other things. It's believed that the localization team simply decided not to translate these messages as they didn't believe any players would be able to access this part of Toad Town before they should have been able to, thus leading the game soft-locking as there's no dialogue to load.

In the early 1990s, an individual named Chris Houlihan won a contest held by Nintendo Power, in which the winner would be allowed to have his name appear in the game if they snapped a photograph of a rare and elusive Final Fantasy boss named Warmech. The winner was announced to have been Chris Houlihan; however, the game his name would subsequently appear in was not announced at the time. Because of the contest, the North American version of A Link to the Past contained Chris as a character and owner of the aforementioned secret room. In all later ports of the game, any mention of Chris Houlihan is removed, but his secret room remains, only with the room labeled "Top Secret Room". Why Chris' name in particular was removed, and why the room still remains in future ports is unknown, with speculators believing it would be simpler to re-write the text of the room, rather than scrap its entirety.

I personally wouldn't consider the Chris Houlihan room to be cheating. Also, you don't need to hack to get in there, you just need to fall in a way that the game doesn't expect (and trust me, this can be easier than you think). I've gotten to it by accidentally in over 25 different runs of LoZ:LttP. I initially thought it was an easily found room from falling in a well in the town, but then I found I could from falling in Ganon's Tower, falling into the well near the dwarves, after getting knocked off by Muldorm in the Tower of Hera and falling multiple floors; falling in the ice dungeon in the Otherworld; I've even gotten to it by INTENTIONALLY trying to fall to get the Moon Pearl from Tower of Hera. I've heard it's basically a failsafe room that pops up when the game can't find a safe place for you to land in the area you're going. Getting that much money early on can definitely help, since you're going to be able to afford some of the more expensive items early on, but that's about the closest to 'cheating' that I've ever heard.

The oldest easter egg for cheaters that I am familiar with was in Doom 2, with John Romero's head on a spike behind a wall (the face of the final boss) that you could only see if you used a noclip cheat.

[@boatknight2246]

Me and my cousin were visiting my Dad years later after Snes was considered nostalgic. and We for laughs booted up my little brothers save which was completed and just ran around reminiscing when he found Chris Houlihans room accidentally, we were both dumbfounded as neither of us had known about it.

Gameranx, where would I be without you

The reason her face is modelled in Soma is actually because you were originally meant to see her face in that scene, but they decided to change it and left the face the way it was.

I don't play videogames since I don't know...2010 but this channel makes me so fu**ing happy I don't know why

[@noahlee2008]

One that I think deserves a mention on this list is Team Fortress 2. In the TF2 files there is a JPG of a coconut that isn't used in the game at all. Once deleting this JPG the game is no longer able to start and nobody including the developers know why this is.

[@obscurity3027]

The greatest thing about the Baldur pose is that it’s still in character and fits the story. That’s exactly what Baldur would do in that scene.

[@nathanburgett1599]

In order to get games passed by American regulators, developers would send you to things if anything broke down. For instance, sonic. The level select by shaking the cartridge, was intentional. Any glitch would send you to this screen so when it was tested they could just make it look like a developer cheat happened and not a glitch that might cause it to get rejected. That's probably the same with that Zelda game.

[@joaopedromanso]

I would add a notable mention to one of the Batman games, Arkham Asylum I believe, where the game allowed you to play a few hours on a cracked version, only to add an invisible wall not allowing you to progress any further without purchasing the full game. Genious!

[@davidgill7412]

Got another one. When you use a Game Shark on the U.S. version of Lunar 2 for Playstation, there is a hidden audio file you can play of the main villain Zophar saying he likes that you cheated.

[@shamoo4233]

what about the lottery bomb guy at the west side of rougeport in "Paper mario thousand year door" when he catches you turning the gamecube clock ahead lol

[@NWolfsson]

Looking at that first one (and probably plenty of others), I don't think that was specifically intended as "if someone free cams, here's a neat easter egg." My guess is that the model was made for an earlier version of the scene where the woman's face *would* get revealed. And instead of spending time making an altered model for no reason, they kept it this way as it doesn't change much on how the scene plays out. So, not necessarily an easter egg *for* cheaters. But a possible remnant that cheaters can find. ;)

black ops 2 zombies - die rise the only map, in the whole series that punishes a player, in this way, for trying to glitch in the buddha room, there is a broken pillar. facing the broken pillar, and into the room, about half way along , you used to be able to make the zombies AFK, effectively breaking their pathing... a glitch this was patched, teleporting a player to the middle of the room, taking away points, perks and weapons, finishing with a Samantha laugh as punishment

[@nobodyr1562]

Im happy to see someone else enjoys this map. I have never seen this before though

[@heidran7816]

I found the Chris Houlihan secret room, when I was a kid. I don’t remember exactly how I did it, but I called the Nintendo power help line to ask what it was, and I remember the guy on the phone telling me it was a kid who won a contest, from Nintendo power, and had his name out in the game.

[@bradg4489]

Yep was mentioned how to get to room in that month magazine

[@Incorrigible010]

Yep! I remember that issue of the magazine. Chris was a Nintendo power subscriber who won that month's contest (Sept/Oct 1990), to have his name included in a future Nintendo title. To participate, you had to snap a photo of you battling Warmech (who at that point in time was kinda hard to find) from the OG Final Fantasy and mail it into the magazine to enter. As far as I know, the magazine never actually divulged which game his name was put into - and it took almost a decade before someone stumbled upon it accidentally and started talking about it on some ancient AOL gaming boards.

[@bradg4489]

@@Incorrigible010 bit it didnt take a decade it was posted in magazine because internet didnt exist and it was known at the time how to use speed boots on libary wall to get to it.

[@elliottryan13]

That Cobra Car was always taken over by a priest and turned on me. Great video!

[@NexusOfChaos]

in Bendy and the Ink Machine, there's an Easter egg in *every* completely inaccessible area called the Wandering Sin, which is a cutout of Bendy holding a sign that says "Wandering is a terrible sin"

[@gus3330]

Love the weird editing out of Falcon saying Lance McDonald’s full name

[@JayRacer]

I have no idea what political views Gameranx has and I love it. Love this channel. No drama. Just hopefully Jake is a Mets/GIANTS/Rangers fan.

[@jeffmaesar]

The Serious Ending of Stanley Parable unlocks also an achievement :)

In "home" on PS3, you could clip your furniture through corners and take it outside, allowing you to fly freely across the map, including a plaqute that says "You're not supposed to see this" You can also drop your furniture into the abyss... As well as your player character, despite not being able to "die" in the "game" It just caused your apartment to crash, eventually, and reset.
