* [[A House Divided]]: The Giants split into two factions: those who wanted to return Mother to the sky, and those who wanted her to remain on Earth. Three factions if you want to included Zeb stuck holding up the Earth.

* [[High Speed Battle]]: Bahamut, [[Minecart Madness|Ellmac]] and [[Unexpected Shmup Level|Palenque]]. Ellmac's theme is even called "High Speed Beast".
