* During the mission to rescue the ex-Cerberus scientists led by Dr. Brynn Cole, the evacuation scenes resemble the opening of the [[The Empire Strikes Back|Battle of Hoth]], where surface-to-air guns clear a path for transports. Some of the lines are exactly the same, too.
* One of the reasons the endings [[Broken Base|broke the base so wide open]] was that {{spoiler|they match up almost exactly with the three choices at the end of [[Deus Ex]].}}
* Some of the music that plays during the quarian-geth arc sounds remarkably similar to some of the music from ''[[Battlestar Galactica
** Spoken of in the geth memories, is a "Mistress Hal'''a'Dama'''", which is also referencing [[2001: A Space Odyssey]].

* Near the end of the game, the discussion of cybernetic bodies comes up. Shepard has a moment of doubt in which s/he wonders about possibly just being a VI that ''thinks'' it's Commander Shepard; while not a direct quote, this is very similar to Major Kusanagi's philosophical moment in ''[[Ghost in the Shell (1995 film)||Ghost in the Shell]]''.
