My absolute favorite line from a Hitman NPC was when I was hanging off the ledge of a building, really high up. An NPC noticed me while texting on his phone and said "Don't do it, you have a reason to live." In the most bored, uninterested voice I've ever heard in my life.

On the hitman topic, their voice lines change depending on the weapon you're holding. Nothing gives me more joy while playing than hearing a guard yell "drop the fish!"

Life is Strange has Chloe's dyed hair getting slightly, subtly discolored after a scene where she swims in the school's pool. Pools contain chlorine that reacts with hair dye, but this is the only place where I see this acknowledged in a game. Just a texture change, no big deal... But they thought about it!

Love the little detail of MIKE being the one to read the line about 5 star stealth runs in Hitman, very impressive irony!

Mike: "... my five star stealth run."<br><br>Me: "Well, SOMEONE'S five star stealth run."

It's a small thing, but I always appreciate in a game when a character is using an item in a cutscene and then toss it on the ground, the item is actually laying on the ground afterwards. Doesn't matter if you can pick it up or not, but as long as it's there and didn't simply disappear.

In Horizon Zero Dawn, as a redheaded protagonist, the only places you can be stealthy are in tall plants with red tips. And not only that, but the stealthy outfits are covered in green vines, which makes sense to blend in with the plants. It's a satisfying departure from Assassin's Creed's logic of "if it's moderately tall plants, you can hide in it, even if you're wearing bright white and red"

Another little detail that I love for Shadow and Rise of The Tomb raider, is that whenever she takes a hard fall or rough landing, she reaches down to cradle her left side. It's where she got impaled in the first of the reboots and it makes sense for it to bother her after all those years.

In Horizon Zero Dawn, after Aloy has emerged from a river or pond, she will shake the water off her boots and make a sarcastic comment on how uncomfortable her wet clothes are, almost as if she's judging the player for dunking her in there in the first place.

Mike: "This will severely compromise my 5 star stealth run."<br>Me: Well this video is obviously complete fiction and I can't stand being lied to like this.

The hidden genius of CJ not being able to sing well is the fact his voice actor is in fact, a rapper who can sing very well adding a layer of hidden humor to the game.

Honorable mention to the Achievement Hunter crew for doing a "Things to do" called "Puddle Pile" in the Paris level of Hitman 2. The boys were able to lure a total of 70 people onto some electrified water and the developers saw that video and put an easter egg in the Ark Society level where people would talk about "The two guys who electrocuted 70 people in Paris". Search Hitman Puddle Pile here on youtube for both the video and the easter egg videos. Both are hilarious.
