Robin Williams was reportedly a keen Alliance player. After his death in 2014, Blizzard added a quiet tribute on an island off the southern coast of Talador: rub the Ever-Burning Lamp there and one of his most famous characters appears.
San Andreas launched on PS2 in October 2004, but Take-Two's own earnings report was the first place that confirmed PC and Xbox owners wouldn't get their version until mid-2005. It eventually arrived that June, following the same console-first pattern the previous two games had used.
Mephisto, Baal and Diablo styled themselves as a dark ruling triumvirate over the whole of Hell, using brutal strength and cunning to keep the four Lesser Evils in line beneath them. It's this power imbalance that eventually sparked the rebellion known as the Dark Exile.
Horace Walsh, better known on air as 'the Pacifist,' spends his K-JAH broadcasts begging Liberty City to put the guns down and lay off the SPANK. His backstory actually stretches back to Liberty City Stories, where his cousin Natalie was running the station before he eventually took her spot.

Altaïr's movement was built from more than 4,000 individual character animations, an enormous amount for 2007, all in service of making his climbing and parkour feel fluid rather than robotic across the game's rooftops and market stalls.
Somewhere in Dalaran you can find a flower seller called Aerith Primrose being quietly watched over by her bodyguard, Koraud. Spell it out loud and Koraud is basically Cloud with the letters shuffled, making this pair a sly little Final Fantasy VII reunion nobody asked for but everybody appreciated.
One of the most recognizable pieces of the original show's style, Blair Waldorf's headbands, was intentionally left out of the 2021 reboot's wardrobe, with Eric Daman saying they were 'on hiatus' while the new cast's look leaned into varsity jackets and biker shorts instead.
