Line 28:
* [[Big Applesauce]]: Set in NYC.
* [[Badass Bookworm]]: Well, Lucas is more like a [[Badass]] Geek: he is an IT administrator, reads Nietzsche in his free time, but also uses the [[Power of Rock]] to seduce ladies and [[Martial Pacifist|practices taekwondo]].
* [[Bad Job, Worse Uniform]]: The outfit regular police officers have to wear is pretty garish, and it can't be fun patrolling the streets in such bad weather conditions either.
* [[Big Bad]]: The {{spoiler|Orange}} and {{spoiler|Purple Clan}}.
* [[Big Bad Ensemble]]: The {{spoiler|Orange}} and {{spoiler|Purple Clan}}.
* [[Blackmail Is Such an Ugly Word]]: {{spoiler|Lucas realizes that he is manipulated by Agatha, whom the Cyborg disguised as, but she claims that he is guided}}.
* [[Bloodstained
* [[Claustrophobia]]: Carla, to a severe degree.
* [[Come Back to Bed, Honey]]: Tyler does this to his girlfriend Sam: she's seducing him on their anniversary when the phone rings regarding the murder case he's working on, and the game [[But Thou Must!|won't continue]] until you answer the phone and leave for work. Sam is understandably pissed.
* [[Consulting a Convicted Killer]]: After Carla discovers similarities between Lucas' case and past murders, she visits Janos, the culprit of those past murders, at Bellevue Asylum in order to find out the link both cases.
* [[Cop Boyfriend]]: And girlfriend.
Line 104:
* [[Sanity Meter]]: When the meter is full, it reads NEUTRAL rather than WELL or GOOD etc. Yeah... it's that sort of game.
** Should it drop to zero, the character you're playing will snap and...well, kill themselves. However, you usually have some control over the meter, with only one decision ( {{spoiler|Tyler staying in New York, rather than leaving with Samantha}}) causing it to plummet precipitously.
* [[Schrodinger's Gun]]: Carla's Tarot reading. Pick a card, any card. [[But Thou Must!|Story dictates]] that you'll always draw the same ones in the same order.
* [[Shout
** While looking at Takeo, Tyler compares him to a character from [[Gremlins]].
** The orderly in the medical hospital looks and acts almost exactly like the one in [[The Silence of the Lambs]]. He's even called Barney.
** During the [[Stern Chase]], Lucas needs a place to hide so he goes to see his old girlfriend. Long story short, he ends up having [[Breakfast At Tiffany's]].
** The professor who is an expert in Mayan societies is called Kuriyakin which is ''very'' similiar to [[The Man From UNCLE|Illya Kuryakin]].
** Lucas poses as a reporter named John Cunningham. Several people bearing this name [
** In one of the childhood flashback scenes, Lucas must scale a telephone pole in Wishita, which makes him a [
** The use of bullet time and [[Wire Fu]] during the apartment escape, made [[Lampshade Hanging|more obvious]] when the scene involves [[The Matrix|hanging from a helicopter then backflipping near a subway train]].
** Several of the camera angles and character poses when a character is possessed resemble [[The Shawshank Redemption]] [[Redemption in The Rain]] poses.
** {{spoiler|Chroma}} is pretty much an obvious nod to [[Star Wars]]. [[What Could Have Been|No force lightning though...]]
** Technically there's a shout out to the whole video game medium several times, courtesy of Detective Miles.
** The Oracle's green robe is a possible [[Shout
** Lucas is shown reading an assortment of books, whether it's Shakespeare's ''[[The Tempest]]'' (which forms a small part of the plot) or [[Nietzche Wannabe|Nietzche's]] ''Thus Spoke Zarathustra''.
* [[Skunk Stripe]]: Lucas' hair starts to go white after spending time in "The Wave".
