Easter eggs (spoilers)

[PJ8855]

And this choom from KO Kombat video game, reference to Scorpion from Mortal Kombat

I noticed the matrix reference someone mentioned earlier today, there is a TV ad that starts with the line,
"So what do you need?"
"Clothes. Lots of clothes"
And the tv sequence is practically straight from the Matrix movie.

Wishing I would've taken pictures. I've found easter eggs referencing Fury Road (Biotechnica Flats), 10 Cloverfield Lane (Badlands), Iron Man (Badlands), Breaking Bad (Badlands), and Children of Men (Pacifica).

You can always do that on other playthroughs.

If you enter some arcades(if I am not wrong it's japantown or jig jig street), there's the witcher music playing in one of the games. Gave me the chills...

Also the Lizzy Wizzy quest is named Violence. Lizzy Wizzy was played by Grimes, one of her songs(my favorite) is named Violence. Just too bad CDPR did not use this as background music for this quest, that would add some flavor!

Someone on another forum raised an interesting question. In the Corpo prologue, your boss Mr. Jenkins tells you to perform a hit job (kill his boss Abernathy); you fail, which ends up with you being terminated and him being presumably killed by Abernathy. If Abernathy/Arasaka killed him, then why give him a memorial when he was basically committing treason. At first, I thought maybe it was a friend/family member who had him memorialized at the Columbarium; but with the wording attached to the Arasaka logo, it seems like the company had his grave put there, which is kind of weird.

If you betray the Militech Agent Meredith Stout, you don't see her memorialized -- at least I haven't come across it yet; she ends up dead and at the bottom of the ocean near a Pier off the Watson district; her head's been shaved, there's bruises on her face, and cement blocks on her feet. V makes a comment how Militech doesn't forgive nor forget -- Mafia style execution.

There is a gig to which this is relevant I guess (I didn't complete it on my first play through and I'm jumping between Vs as I play through again to explore things I missed the first time with each role).

Is this the quest dealing with your old associate Frank Nostra? The guy who gets fired from Arasaka and tries to turn you in to Abernathy thinking she'd let him come back even though she's purging the department of people who she thinks isn't 100% on her side?

I found this reference to the famous train mission in GTA San Andreas

It is found on a railroad next to 2 dead black dudes. It's north of Night City but I don't remember where.

The names are JC and Little Smoke instead of CJ and Big Smoke

Side Quest: Off the leash... Fan: Kerry you are breath taking! Kerry: No you are breath taking! Lol reminds you of anything?

I was wondering what the book refers to. u answered me

There is a lot of books we can see ingame but i don't know nor have the references to tell if it's easter egg.

A vinyl disc probably a reference to Tainted Love by Soft Cell

Reminding about the free will in the game: Liberum Arbitrium

Pop culture reference: The song "Happy Together" was recorded by The Turtles.

Would be cool to see a list of all the song titles in the game. I'm sure there are some I'll miss.

Arent all the mission names actual song titles?

I dry off all cash machine or vendor. I do 15000-20000€ in 15sec each time. Actually, this painting helps a lot to buy car and epic/legendary blueprint or cyberware from time to time.

I don't know if someone do the same like me, I walk or drive through the city/badlands just to explore some areas I never was and find some little stories, legendary items, etc....in the Badlands I found this....a Fallout easteregg

Found a shard with a message about cosplayer, who wanted to leave a bunker after the nuclear destrcution of the world....but it seems somebody didn't play fair
