Sister Spice Haha the "bboy" got pwned.... but seriously im 19 and i can remember it being called Breakdancing before everyone got pretentious and called themselves Bboys.... oh the desire to have a stupid name...

And seriously bboy if you were that condescending to people in real life you'd have no friends... don't treat people like that... they deserve to be treated like they have a brain at least.

I don't know if anyone have posted this before, but the pvp build, Abominable Snowman (am I spelling it right) is probably from
The Abominable Snowman by Jean Michelle Jarre. JMJ has also got a song called: "A Love Theme For Gargoyles".

One of the NPCs in Lion's Arch is named Merkin, which is a word that means "pubic hair wig".

In the beta, grawls were called 'trogs', and the grawl ulodyte was instead called 'trog ulodyte', which is a play on words. (troglodyte = early human)

Shith Mal Hacto- Isn't that one of the phrases from 'The Day the Earth Stood Still'?
Ictu Berrada Nicto!
But I could've sworn Shith Mal Hacto came up there, too...

Edit: Also, Gandalf (LotR movie, anyhow) uses 'None Shall Pass'...

Actually Gandalf says, "You shall not pass!"

I remember Adventure so well... I played for hours just to find where to get that dang pixel. =)

I thought easter eggs were supposed to be hidden extras?

I wouldn't consider dance emotes as easter eggs..
Or any obvious fact for that matter.

I know they said earlier in the thread that the female necro dance is from Thriller, but if you watch it, it looks like all the dances the kids from The Breakfast Club did all combined into one. And the female ranger dance looks like she's got a wedgie, but is trying every which way to um... get it out, without actually yanking.

Oh... and Grawl? It means bad things.

There's a collector in Ascalon who's last name is Osbourne.I think it may have been a reference to Ozzy Osbourne. I know of an easter egg,but I can't remember it...

A) Shouting "SHARON!"
B) Getting interrupted by Cry of Frustration constantly
C) Biting the heads off bats
D) Was singing a rock and roll song
E) Walking slow or falling out of a chair.


A name alone doesn't mean a reference.

I ran into an NPC named Bob. That must be a reference to my best friend Bob or maybe Hurricane Bob!!! Easter Eggs everywhere! /sarcasm.

For a name to be a valid reference it should also have another link beyond the name. For example, I would consider a pig in presearing named Wilbur or a spider named Charlotte (There is a spider named Carlotta (spanish for Charlotte)) to be a reference/egg to another well known pig/spider with an identifiable name.

If the Enchanter henchman were named Tim that would a true Monty Python reference.

I heard that in beta that Betrice as going to be alesias name. You might want to check that again in game. It hasn't said that since they updated his character model. He does, however, still have the symbol on the inside of his shirt.

The name was Baptiste, not Betrice. Baptiste is Alesia's surname.... apparently.

The saying in the shirt was "Baptiste Said Full Chakra" I believe.

Edit: Chakra is sanksrit as well. It means wheel I think.
