Easter Eggs / Secrets
Even though this game is 4 and a half years old, I still see secrets, references or easter eggs I never noticed before when I play it.

So I thought it would be nice to see what other things people have noticed in this game as there seems to be quite a few little things hidden away. Here's some of the things I've seen:

In The Passing, if you are fast enough in the second act, and make it out of the pool hall towards the metal fence at the end near the cement mixing truck, you'll see a Midnight Riders Tour Bus speed past. Sometimes the survivor that see's it first will say something about it.

In Dead Center if you chop off the head of the mannequin doll's in the third act with a melee weapon, sometimes your character will laugh. The laugh file that plays will be different to the ones you normally hear if you manually make your character laugh with the chat wheel.

Also in Dead Center, its rare but you can actually find a Jimmy Gibbs Jr Zombie in the finale. If he shows up, Ellis will freak out when you kill him by screaming "Nooooo!". If you let Jimmy Gibbs attack you, car oil will cover your view, simular to when you get hit by one of the mud men in Swamp Fever.

In Dark Carnival if you walk up to the microphone on the stage in the finale as Coach or Ellis, they will start to sing or do a mic check. In the same campaign if you walk up to the"you have to be this tall to ride" sign next to the carousel in act 2, the survivors will make a joke about Ellis not being tall enough to get in or Coach will say "atleast there won't be any jockeys in there"

There's tons more, please post any you think are worth mentioning. I know a lot of these are old but there's always people that don't know about them, so I'd thought I'd share:health:

Go into the beginning saferoom of DK 5 and scope in on the electrical boxes in the saferoom. The tags on them say 'Sc0rp pwn5' or something like that, I forget.

You can give your Pills or Adrenaline shots to Louis, Zoey and Francis when you are talking to them at the start of Act three in the passing. The same way you can hand them to your teammates.

Edit - what Mizuhashi said lol

in Dark Carnival act 2, while the shooting gallery is running, sometimes if you look at the far right at the very back you sometimes see a tiny silhouette of something walking up a mountain. You can only really see it if you zoom in with a sniper scope. If you shoot it you hear a yodel sound play. I'm not sure what its purpose is, as it doesnt seem to effect you score in the shooting gallery.

forgot the dead rising easter egg.

If you look at cereal boxes, burger boxes, or soda cups, you see tf2 pyro and heavies.

There's a reference to the Blue Brothers film in Dead Center. In the crescendo event in Act 3 where you set off the alarm, on the ground floor is a store called 'Disco Pants and Haircuts' . If Nick walks up to it, he'll say "Disco pants and Haircuts...There's lot of space in this mall".

Too bad you never hear it as you're hauling ass to the alarm.
