All of the characters' surnames, save for the Kairos family's, utilize the hours of a clock (one, two, three etc). This is also true for the Japanese version of the game, where the Japanese pronunciation of the numbers one through twelve are used.

Some changes were made to Otacon's lab concerning objects lying around. Originally the anime poster on the wall was of Hideo Kojima's earlier game "Policenauts", which is changed in subsequent versions to a poster of "Zone of the Enders 2" and the Playstation lying on a desk is changed to a Gamecube with a Wavebird controller.

Two statues of Mario and Yoshi were also added. Shooting the Mario trophy plays the original 1-UP sound from the NES classic and restores a bit of Snake's health, while shooting Yoshi just makes Yoshi do his famous "Yoshi!" squeak.

Attachment Tiny Tiger was originally named Taz Tiger, since it was based off the extinct animal Thylacine, better known as the Tasmanian Tiger. His name was change possibly because it was to avoid any legal issues with Warner Bros., since there was another character that goes by the name of Taz, the Tasmanian Devil.

In the North American release, when you pause the game in the middle of Tiny's boss fight. His name reads Taz Tiger. This was a mistake Naughty Dog left behind and it was fixed in the European release.

Team Ninja wanted to include Master Chief in the game as a guest fighter. However, Bungie told them it was impossible for him to be in the game due to storyline restrictions but they were still interested in the idea of putting a non-cannon character from the Halo universe in the game. The end result was the character Nicole-458. In keeping with the idea of English being the language of the United Nations Space Command, Nicole is also the only character in the game that speaks English.

Attachment There was a manga series made in 1998. It was entitled Dansu! De Jump! Na Daibouken (Dance! Then Jump! It's a Great Adventure!) and it was written and drawn by Ari Kawashima. Published by Coro Coro Comics and released only in Japan, the story is loosely based on Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back. The series lasted 2 volumes before being canceled for unknown reasons.

There are several differences between the manga and game series whicih include:
• Crash speaks throughout the whole story.
• There is some mild swearing.
• Wumpa Fruits and Crystals are referred to as Apples and Power Stones.
• Many of the jokes and gags are based around Japanese culture.

Attachment The letter Spoiler:old Elizabeth gives to young Elizabeth says:

"I am a code. I should probably be changed over for something much more official in the future. But I'll do as a stand-in for now I suppose."

The developers likely forgot to change it.
The cipher used for the letter can be seen early in the game in one of Elizabeth's many rooms.
