Easter Eggs, Nods and References in DXHR

It's a really subtle reference, considering it goes so well with the other user/pass combos Hyron comes up with, all of which are fucking creepy.

Also, maybe I'm imagining it. But I swear there was an e-mail mentioning a Belltower soldier being augmented, and from the description it sounded like it was talking about Gunther Hermann. The e-mail definitely mentions the "skul-gun", regardless. (Though I don't think it was misspelled this time.)

I haven't come across this e-mail yet. However there was a pocket secretary in Detroit (I can't remember exactly where but I think it may have been in the police morgue) which makes a quip along the lines of "Manderley should get someone who can spell properly" - I immediately assumed that had to be talking about Gunther. lol

Another tenuous Looking Glass or Thief reference: Sometimes in Hengsha you can hear wind chimes, and the sound sample sounds exactly the same as the Looking Glass portion in the intro video for Thief.

This one should require no explanation:

I'm still trying to find the area where I saw the number '1701D' (ST:NG anyone?). I know I saw it, but can't for the life of me remember where.

Also, Vasili Sevchenko's name reminded me of the old wreck, the Shevchenko, in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Call of Pripyat.

The Enterprise reference was on the cables in the Alice Garden Pods. :thumb:

Thanks Jason. I knew I'd seen it somewhere, but forgot to make note of the location.
