Civ 4 Easter Eggs (pics; 56k warning)

[DarkSun]

I haven't seen a thread on this. Few days ago while completing a trade I got this:



Anyone else find any easter eggs?

 

[Fredric Drum]

What's the egg?

 

[fastspawn]

you should point out that this comes from a song, because some people might not know

I think it is Wind beneath my Wings

 

[DarkSun]

read what he says:
"Did you ever know that you're my hero? You're everything I wish I could be." thats a quote from some song.

'Egg' is a bit of a stretch, I think, but the red dots above his head look like an alien invasion!!!!!

Easter egg is just something hidden in the game waiting for the right sequence of events to happen. If you go to the main page under the Civ 3 section theres an easter egg section with a few of the same sorta deal as this.

As for the red dots I don't really know how they got there, they just appeared one day when I ran the game. They only appear on that screen. Probably due to using the ATI Omega drivers instead of the default ATI ones.

Anyways anyone else have the, I guess fortune to find one?

Humorous, but not an easter egg.

Quite a few of the leaders have humorous allusions, actually.

 

[thasan]

his words are backed by alien spaceships??

 

[Tarkhan]

"snacks are good in moderation" appear in the tips while the game is loading

Its Bette Midler, not Madonna. And here are the lyrics (see the chorus):

i heard that as a follow up for the hot-coffee mod for san andreas they are trying to make it so that ALL the features in the game (so also the easter eggs) are clearly displayed on the box in the store....kinda defeats the purpose of a easteregg

So that's where the song is from? I only knew of Sonata Arctica's version.

They've got a thing with the song lyrics
Not really an easter egg as such, but I liked it:
