Attachment In an earlier version of the co-op plot, GLaDOS sends Atlas and P-Body out to find "artifacts" of the long-dead Aperture workers (coffee cups and such) to make them more human. Unused audio files from this period of development can still be found within the games files, revealing that in one of the rooms a comic strip is found, presumably Garfield from how it is described.

Attachment Within Luigi's animations appears to be a variation of the same animation used for when Luigi is being held by the Grabber Ghosts. This choking animation is internally called 'poisoned' and he slaps himself when he stops choking. It is quite possible this was the original animation used when he came in contact with a poisonous mushroom.

Originally, Samus was going to give an opening monologue establishing the back story for the game. Though the narration was cut in the final product, a clip with Jennifer Hale (Samus's voice actor) giving this narration can still be found on the game's disc. This was also the inspiration for the narration in the "Opening / Menu (Metroid Prime)" music for Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

A hidden message can be found in the game's ROM. The text references some of the developers: Grant Davies, Michael Smith, Peter Suwara, Paul Clarke and Ivan Kenny-Sumiga, respectively.


Grant was last seen fleeing Torus Games with a briefcase packed full of money under each arm. He remains wanted in 4 states.

Smitty made several unsucessful attempts to circumnavigate the world in a lunch box. He now lives in Peru.

Peter 'Stinky' Suwara devoted his life to the quest of spiritual enlightenment. He has lived in recluse since Spider-Man.

Paul submitted several game designs to Activision, all featuring a snowboard and a railgun. None were accepted.

Ivan was arrested after a hosting series of wild parties with crazy antics. He is currently serving 32 life sentences in a state penatentiary.

Attachment There are three unused sound files named "moan2.mp3," "roar2.mp3," and "scrm2.mp3" that can be found in the Morrowind data files. These are placeholder sound clips of kittens that the developers used for the Kagouti while the game was still in development. The clips were obviously replaced with more appropriate noises for the Kagouti, but the files themselves were not removed.

Attachment Morrowind's data files contain a number of test rooms that can be accessed using the game console. The rooms include "Character Stuff Wonderland", "Clutter Warehouse - Everything Must Go!", "Draugr Test" (in BloodMoon), "ken's test hole", "Mark's Script Testing Cell" (in BloodMoon), "Mark's Vampire Test Cell", "Redoran Test", "Redoran Test 2", and "ToddTest".

Many of these rooms have self-explanatory purposes, although a few have noteworthy attractions in them. The "Clutter Warehouse - Everything Must Go!" room has two strange NPCs in it: Lord Cluttermonkey, who is an Argonian in Daedric armor who has a mace called Clutterbane, and the Used Clutter Salesman, a Bosmer dressed in exquisite clothes who has a Daedric warhammer.

Attachment There is a metal wing texture in the game for combining the Wing Cap and Metal Cap, similar to how the Vanish Cap and Metal Cap can be combined in Dire Dire Docks. There are no levels in the game where it would be possible to equip both simultaneously, but they do function and use this texture if given to Mario via hacking.

While Kitana's model and textures were removed from the Playstation release, leaving only her moveset in the code, she is still fully functional in the N64 and PC releases, and can be accessed with a GameShark code or patch.
