Only got one that comes to mind at the moment: Y'know how in the "electronic 3D virtual reality arcade game" DOOM, when you pick up a berserk pack, it seems to last until you go to the next level? Turns out, if you were to pick up a berserk and leave the game running for about 3-4 days or so, it'll actually run out and your fist damage will go back to its puny, 1/4 of a man original value. I don't entirely remember why this is the case, but it has to do with the values of the pack not being able to last forever, I believe.

In the rather obscure game Darkstar One, everything within a game's sector is relatively close to each other. You can't fly to the nearby planet; the game will tell you that you're getting closer, but you never will. However, the zone at the very end in which you fight the final boss, there's a distant asteroid belt that you actually can travel to. There's no reason to, if memory serves, it's just a different thing for no reason.

In Doom 64, none of the textures have colors. They're all gray scaled and they appear to have color due to the colored lighting that's shining on them.MisterBibs posted:In the rather obscure game Darkstar One, everything within a game's sector is relatively close to each other.

There's a reason to go there (mining ore from asteroid fields), but if memory serves me, the ore isn't special or unique compared to where you could otherwise get it. It's just a nifty reward for doing something you've been unofficially trained to not do.

The ghosts in Pac-Man all have unique characteristics - they're not all clones of each other and behave wildly differently. The red guy will chase you like an rear end in a top hat, the orange guy tries to play "I'm-not-touching-you" by coming close and then fleeing back to his corner, the pink ghost aims in front of the player (or off on a diagonal to the left, due to a glitch in its code), and the blue one does some weird poo poo where it basically always tries to be further from Pac-Man than red is but otherwise continues chasing the player in the same way. The intro screen to Pac-Man (or maybe it's the interstitial screen between levels, I don't remember where it happens) where Pac-Man is chased off screen by the ghosts and then comes back huge and eats them is considered the first "cutscene" in a video game. There's a safe spot in the original arcade machine version where, assuming certain conditions about the board state are met, a player can just sit indefinitely and the ghosts will never catch them.

The in-game timer in Final Fantasy VII seems like it stops going up at 99:99:99 and just stays there forever, but if you keep playing the same file for 136 years, 36 days, 6 hours, 28 minutes, and 16 seconds it will roll back over to 00:00:00. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2c91LJT4emU
