You know, those silly little things game devs hide their games, like the Volition Bravos.
Know any good ones?

There was a cheat code in Baldur's Gate activated by the words "The Great Gonzo". Summoned up rabid chickens. Also, the infamous cow-kill  spell in BG, and the Cows from Hell spell in NWN.

Yeah, there's a handful of dinosaur sprites in C&C, as well as a cutscene, but there's no mission nor tbl that come with them.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned the Volition Bravos from FS2 apart from Thorn :D

Why be repetitive?

Bungie is pretty good with Easter Eggs too. IIRC, the entire Marathon series had some pretty good ones. I particularly like the smily faces on the rockets. Halos got some hard to spot ones though, like the hippo on shotgun ammo

Tachyon: The Fringe had some really good ones, with good ol' Bruce Campbell saying some hilarious stuff. Like when you put on the cheat mode, he pritty much tears you apart for a minute explaining why you suck now for trying to cheat the game. :D

I thought it was funny that the rockets in HALO were called SPNKr's... like "You just got Spanked"

They were great.  So much selecting, so much fun.  I'm suprised they bothered making 8 different 'selection sounds' for the zerg units... and the local wildlife (ragnasuars etc).  Most of them just made some sort of roar or growl, but they were all different.

It's a blizzard tradition that they've been doing with their RTS games since Warcraft 1 came out.  I think they even included something similar in The Lost Vikings years ago.
