i forget what the exact connection is between all the games, probably some specific developer who's worked on all of them, but that is the first code you need to input in thief, system shock 2, all deus ex games, and all bioshock games

i can confirm that the 0451 thing has spread beyond just that studio, we had a programmer from them at a different studio and he used 0451 for a lot of 4 digit codes for stuff.

Originally was a reference to Fahrenheit 451, no? (System Shock just had 3 digits IIRC, and I likely do not.)

when someone works undercover like that, they're still getting paid by their agency, right? what are the chances his bitcoin direct deposit slip had his address as 1bitcoineaterdonotsend?
