There is plenty of Wasteland easter eggs. I'm not sure if they are intentional though.

I love how Mr. New Vegas says; "Stay classy, New Vegas." after some of his broadcasts. To anyone who doesn't know, it's a reference to the movie 'Anchorman', where Ron Burgundy (Will Ferrel) says; "Stay classy, San Diego." after every news broadcast.

That he plowed (but only sort of) Mr. Bishop's daughter, which would be the Chosen One's grandchild (and the Vault Dweller's great-grandchild) since Mr. Bishop is his bastard son (with either John Bishop's wife or his daughter... oh, that naughty tribal)?


And the wife :)

What do you mean only sort of?

Actually, Anchorman references the original "Mr. Vegas" with that quote ;P


Also, the H&H Tool e-mails are, hands down, the funniest texts in the entire game.

According to Cass's little dialouge about it, It is still around.. Sadly.

@ Ace: Vault Dweller is Fallout 1, Chosen One is Fallout 2, Lone Wanderer is Fallout 3, and I think its just a reused item.

Also, Tranquility Lane..

There is a man in Nipton that thought people were after his precious bodily fluids. He died with the rest of the people there, but items in his house leads me to believe he was a very paranoid person. He left some paperwork there as evidence of his delusions. Anyway, the precious bodily fluids thing is a reference to Col. Jack D. Ripper in Dr Strangelove. I think.

I don't know if this is a true Easter egg, but what about Red Lucy? Is she both a reference to Lucille Ball and the comic book character Red Sonja? She's got red hair and is named Lucy, but she also will only let a strong, proven warrior into her bed, like Red Sonja.

Maybe clutching a tiny bit at referential straws?
As it sounds unlikely they wouldn't make it an clear reference to one character rather than merge two others and give no real indication.

Private First Class Jeremy Watson - the soldier being awarded in "You'll Know It When It Happens" by kimball is an homage to the 1994 film Forrest Gump
