Diablo III
Diablo III (2012)

Attachment There is a secret level in Diablo III titled "Whimsyshire," a complete turn from the game's typical story and theme by putting you in a cartoony bright wonderland with rainbows and unicorns. The level changes health orbs to be pink cupcakes, and the map will appear to a similar design as a child's blanket.

It is intended to be a secret area, similar to the Secret Cow Level in Diablo II, however unlike the Cow level, it is hard to make a huge profit from the items and gold dropped. It was likely put in as a joke, because many people felt that Diablo III's early graphics were too bright and cartoony.

There is a random chance for a unicorn to spawn with one of these names: "Rainbow Western," "Midnight Sparkle," "Nightmarity" and "Nightmare is Magic," each of these are references to the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magics characters names.

Attachment At the end of Portal, Spoiler:when GLaDOS is disconnected and laying in the driveway, a hoop comes out of the air. This was VALVe's attempt at a new meme. Not knowing that "The Cake Is A Lie" would become the resident Portal meme, Hoopy the Hoop was lost into obscurity. The developers consider this the greatest disappointment in Portal.

Two attacks that Riki can learn include Freezinate and Burninate. These two attacks are possible references to Trogdor the Burninator of Homestar Runner fame, who would often be accompanied by phrases like "Burninate" or "Burnination". This was likely added in by the localization team.

Attachment In the Japanese version of the game, the character Chao from the Japan-only game, Famicom Mukashibanashi: Yūyūki (ふぁみこんむかし話 遊遊記) can be found in a bag that is guarded by a mid-boss. She can only be found in the bag if the player already has the corresponding animal friend. She has a very low chance of showing up, and when she does, she gives you an extra life and adds 1% to the game's completion, making it necessary to find her to get 100% completion. She is replaced by Gooey in the international versions.

Attachment While under cover, Solid Snake assumes the name Iroquois Pliskin. "Iroquois" means "Black Snake" in the Iroquoian language, Huron. And "Pliskin" is a reference to the character Snake Plissken from the film "Escape from New York", which was the main inspiration for the development of Solid Snake. Naked Snake (Big Boss), Solid Snake, and Solidus Snake each wear an eye-patch like Snake Plissken.

The room still exists in later versions of the game, although the imagery of Newell has been removed and attempting to enter the room takes you back into the normal map.

In Oblivion, you can find a journal called "Macabre Manifest" which belonged to a grave robber. It includes:

Oford Gabings - Anvil

Travel Cloak with Silver and Green Leaf Fastener
Enchanted Shortsword with Inlaid Writing
Gold Ring with Inscription (Cursed?)
Leather Bound Travel Journal

This person is obviously a reference to Frodo Baggins (Oford Gabings is an anagram for Frodo Baggins, which further cements this reference) from Lord of the Rings. Upon completing the quest you receive a ring which looks very similar to the "Ring of Power".
