History ShoutOut / DeusExNihilum

** The hub contains two [[UsefulNotes/AppleMacintosh Macintosh Plus]] computers (already an outdated model by 1996, yet still in wide use). A variation on the Sad Mac icon appears on their screens after the networks are hacked by Lana Zavich.

** The ticket seller for the Forichi Night Club makes a reference to ''Video Killed The Radio Star'' by Buggles.

** When all the factions are making their arguments to Ingram in Dynamene Station, Ingram busts out one of the most well-recognized quotes from the show. [[note]]''I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed, or numbered!''[[/note]]

** When Number One tries to appeal to Ingram one last time, Ingram paraphrases one of Cutter's lines from ''Webcomic/{{Starslip}}''. [[note]]"Save your butter for a dumber piece of bread."[[/note]]

* At the Hong Kong underground fighting ring, if you choose to free the greasel instead of betting on either of the Triads, you get a "Run [[Literature/ChickenLittle Chicken Little]] Bonus".

** Assorted lines throughout the mod paraphrase quotes[[note]]i.e. "What an incredibly normal thing to do!", originally spoken by Jordan referring to Dr. Cox's reversed vasectomy[[/note]] from the show.

** A few rooms in the Inner Section of Dynamene Station are more or less directly modelled after areas in ''[[VideoGame/SystemShock System Shock]]''. Here's [[http://www.moddb.com/mods/nihilum/images/deus-ex-nihilum-patch-12 an example]].
