* There are so many Flash and [[Interactive Fiction]] games about escaping from a locked room remarkably like, say, a programmer's bedroom (usually complete with bed, closet and computer) that it has become its own ''genre''. Of course, this might have to do with a throwback to early adventure games, which seized on the genre because of technical limitations; it's a lot easier to write and code a game about a single room than it is about, say even a small apartment.

* [[Hideo Kojima]] tells people that instead of being 70% water like normal people, he's 70% movies. As a child, he would often come home to an empty house and sometimes claims that he was raised by movies. As a result, not only do his games homage all his favourite movies to the point where they're almost [[Massively Multiplayer Crossover]] [[Fan Fiction]], but many of his characters are also movie fans (although the only one explicitly 'raised' on movies is Raiden and he's anything but an upstanding member of society).

* [[Rare]]. Keys. ''Enormous'' keys, bigger and heavier than the characters, the most famous being the infamous ice key from ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'' / ''Banjo Tooie''. Both ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'' feature gigantic gold keys as [[Plot Coupon|plot coupons]]; finding or using a key is always a momentous occasion.
