Line 45:
* [[Game Mod]]: Lots.
** Sometimes, the simplest are the best. The Log Nuke program wipes every log in a server, no questions asked.
* [[Hoist
** The exact sequence of events: {{spoiler|Be sure to hang on to the Revelation 1.0 virus file - you have two opportunities to get your hands on it. When the final mission starts, immediately infiltrate the ARC mainframe. Copy Revelation to their fileserver, use the console to delete the contents of /sys, then run Revelation. Don't forget to clear the transfer logs after that, and then you can start fighting the virus everywhere else. Since the version you've unleashed is 1.0, it won't spread.}}
* [[Hollywood Hacking]]: The entire game can basically be described as a simulation based off Hollywood's portrayal of hacking.
Line 57:
* [[Nonstandard Game Over]]: The normal game over is the feds getting their hands on your gateway. There is basically only one non-standard game over and two ways to acquire it. {{spoiler|You can run any version of Revelation on your own system which, unsurprisingly, completely breaks it. When you follow the ARC missions, getting Revelation on your system is impossible to avoid and the end of the game.}}
* [[Nothing Is Scarier]]: The blank screen when your account is suspended.
* [[One-Gender Race]] / [[Gendercide]]?: Not acknowledged in story but you will only see adult men in the databases. Well, it was made in 2000, back when [[There Are No Girls
* [[One Hundred Percent Completion]]: Subverted - you can't get all 12 special badges in a single playthrough.
* [[One World Order]]: There is only one government, which makes hacking their databases very convenient.
Line 88:
* [[Twenty Minutes Into the Future]]: It's set in 2010. [http://forums.introversion.co.uk/introversion/viewtopic.php?t=2354 Now officially recognised as being set in the past.]
* [[Unreadably Fast Text]]: Take a closer look at the output of the gateway installation program. You can read fast...
* [[Unwinnable
** You cannot start the storyline if you wait too long, as it will play out on its own.
* [[Viewer-Friendly Interface]]: Standardised login screens, massive loading bars and tasty IP-dialling visualisations.
