Jedi_Knight Posted December 20, 2001 Posted December 20, 2001 have you found any secretes in the game yet post them here if you have btw if this is in the wrong place someone move it
Metallus Posted December 20, 2001 Posted December 20, 2001 Wow, you've played Grim Fandango? Kudos. Sorry if I seem surprised, but I don't think we get too many SW fans who are interested in adventure games. The easter eggs I've spotted on my own are all in year 2 or 4. Max and the Corley Motors (from Full Throttle) logo are tatoo options in the tatoo parlor in Rubacava. There's a spinning Corley Motors sign in Nuevo Marrow as well. PS: It's secrets, not secretes . That means something completely different.
Jedi_Knight Posted December 20, 2001 Author Posted December 20, 2001 I played the demo and will have the game at xmas btw secrets is a word I always get wrong
Metallus Posted December 20, 2001 Posted December 20, 2001 I think you'll enjoy it, but then again, I'm biased.
Hel-ter Posted December 20, 2001 Posted December 20, 2001 in the first year, when you zoom in on some of the festival watchers you can see Bogen, Max and Olivia...
Metallus Posted December 20, 2001 Posted December 20, 2001 I have a feeling that that's more laziness on the part of the designers than an easter egg.
MeddlingMonk Posted December 20, 2001 Posted December 20, 2001 GF doesn't have too many secrets. Nor secretions for that matter. A few graphic injokes that have already been mentioned (but the Corely sign in N. Marrow doesn't spin). Year two is a sustained reference to Casablanca: Manny and Glottis are dressed like Bogart is in some scenes (white-jacketed tuxedo); Bogen looks like Prefect Renault; Blue Casket = Blue Parrot. There are a few other things along those lines in year two. Casablanca also shows up in the rest of the game, too. Hector's wears a fez just like Sydney Greenstreet's character does; and Hector is fat like Greenstreet. Greenstreet's character isn't a villain in Casablanca but he is in The Maltese Falcon. The Double-N tickets could be a Casablanca reference, too. Specifically, to the movie's coveted (and nonsensical) 'letters of transit'.
Hel-ter Posted December 20, 2001 Posted December 20, 2001 The whole idea of Manny and Meche is taken from Chinatown: just imagine the interrogating scene is Manny's office
