Secrets in Media Platforms.

Video Games Easter Eggs.

1.) Grand Theft Auto V: The Ghost of Mount Gordo.
Yep, that happens. Presumably as a way to address the rumors of ghostly activity and the accusations of misogyny in one fell swoop, Rockstar Games went ahead and hid a she-spook in the latest game. If you want to see it for yourself, you'll need to: Be at Mount Gordo between 11 p.m. and midnight on the game's clock, and make sure your cat isn't in the room while you're playing, because if it jumps on you when the ghost appears you're gonna die for real. Then there'll be two ghosts here, and we're not sure if we can handle that.

2.) Silent Hill 4 - Robbie the Rabbit.
This “cute” fluffy toy makes several disturbing cameos throughout the Silent Hill series, but his creepy highlight is in The Room. Whenever lead protagonist Henry Townshend peeps through the hole in his bedroom wall to spy on his attractive neighbor Eileen Galvin (look, this is a Silent Hill game – this sort of thing just happens) he can see Robbie slumped on her bed. However, later in the game Galvin is rushed to hospital and, if the player peeks into her room again, Robbie is now turned toward the camera, terrifyingly pointing his foot at you – just like the scary monkey in Family Guy. Except pink. And a rabbit.

3.) Borderlands 2 – Cavern of the Creepers.
In the game’s Caustic Caverns area, among the labyrinth of abandoned mining tunnels, players can find a hidden chamber filled with creepers, the exploding monsters from Minecraft. There are also several different Minecraft blocks that can be smashed to reveal loot and useful items (including blocky Minecraft heads for your character to wear). It’s only one of the several cultural references that Gearbox hid in its crazed sci-fi shooter – Dark Souls and Lord of the Rings also crop up.

4.) Portal – the lair of the Rat Man.
The Aperture science centre holds a wealth of disturbing secrets, but persistent players of Valve’s brilliant first-person puzzler could discover the best. Hidden away throughout Portal and its sequel are secret dens, the walls of which are covered in bizarre diagrams and notes. It’s all the work of scientist Doug Rat-man who became trapped in underground lab and slowly went insane. One of Rat-man’s scrawls is the now legendary phrase: “the cake is a lie”.

5.) Grand Theft Auto V - the Thelma and Louise ending.
Everyone has their favorite Grand Theft Auto Easter egg – there are hundreds of them – but we love the poignant drama of this one. If you steal a chopper and fly over a certain mountainous location after 7pm in the evening, you see a vintage car reenacting the famous ending of Ridley Scott’s movie Thelma and Louise, driving over the edge of a vast edifice. There’s even a group of police cars nearby – although sadly you don’t get Trevor dressed as Harvey Keitel running toward the doomed duo.
