Easter Eggs

==Overview==
Easter Eggs are secrets hidden in video games and films which are not related to the plot and reference something from outside the story.
This page is not a repository of all Trivia. There are many movie, literary, and popular culture references through-out the game, such as quotes, and the names of Missions and Achievements. These are listed in the Trivia section of each article.
