*** Even more hilarious is that this has ''three'' variants: a straight punch with no warning, a heavy punch in which Jensen throws his body forward and a very quick one-two left and right punch. All of these are funny to watch due to how sudden and quick they start and end.

** The real kicker is the way Jensen says the "Something, something" line. Which is to say that he delivers it with his usual dead-serious GutturalGrowler tone.

* Anyone you end up bribing or otherwise paying money to can be immediately cold-cocked in the face to get your money back. You can even bypass the entire conversation/sidequest with Brian Tindell by simply rolling up to him while he's sitting there and walloping him in the nose, then taking the recording from him.

* When Adam is flown to Hengsha, China, a gem of a moment happens when the camera pans and [[LayeredMetropolis Hengsha]] is seen. Adam's reaction to the city isn't one of wonder or interest, but rather it's a reaction much in the same way the [[YouHaveGOTToBeKiddingMe player would]] [[ThisISGonnaSuck likely react]]; bonus points for being one of the rare moments Jensen says something [[NotSoStoic outside of his typical cold monotone.]]

** Even made more funny when you were sneaking into the Lady's Restroom to listen in on their chat only to then get berated with that comment.
* The CASIE implant incorporates pheromone projection - which happens to be organized along [[AlphaAndBetaWolves alpha, beta, and omega]] types. You have to wonder if one of the devs has a...''colorful'' search history.

** If you perform a non-lethal double takedown behind two enemies, Jensen could end up kicking one of them in the back of the knee and quickly grabbing the second person and positioning them. The first person will stand back up and take a swing at Jensen, but ends up knocking out the second person. Then Jensen finishes the first person off with a few body shots and a hard throw to the floor.

** Several of the two-person non-lethal takedowns start by your targets attacking Jensen first and him expertly countering their assaults. However, since you can do it on any two people, you're just as likely to counter two hardened security officers as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMl-4BndT20 street prostitutes]].
** One lethal take down has Jensen ''picking up'' one of the enemies, and ''dropping him onto the other'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCcGmpuG5ew&feature=player_detailpage#t=187s followed by a quick stab through both]]. BloodyHilarious at its finest.
** You could perform feats of Franchise/{{Predator}}-like badassery just by generally cloaking up and then performing a takedown, or sometimes the multiple takedown. Its downright hilarious to see yet another guy look around for you, unsure where you are, and perform ''yet another'' takedown, uncloaking in the process. It might be highly energy consuming but it's worth it.
** The ultimate example of Jensen's epic-level face punching prowess is that, during the boss battle with Namir, with the right timing the player can trigger a takedown and kill him with a single punch to the jaw.

* Omega Ranch is a secret facility of secret facilities. It's patrolled regularly by guards, robots, the best electronic security that you can get...and they still get spammed by Nigerian Scam emails.
** Possibly due to how the security team keeps downloading animal porn and putting it on one of the scientists computers to mess with him.

* One of the emails you read on the Omega Ranch is from the office administrator, who notes that people have been using equipment as benches due to a lack of chairs. After a long winded explanation of how the tensile strength is not enough to support a human's weight, he ends "In short, [[SophisticatedAsHell stop breaking shit with your fat asses. XOXOXO, The Management]]."

* On a side mission to find out about the death of Malik's friend, Adam Jensen has to meet with someone called Anonymous X and say the phrase [[SpySpeak "Death and Life have their determined appointments."]] To which he would reply [[SpySpeak "Riches and honor depend upon heaven."]] Adam comments it sounds [[LampshadeHanging like a bad spy movie]] but the real gem is when you meet with Anonymous X. Adam can be professional and say the phrase, he can be impatient and just demand Anonymous X to give Adam what he wants or he can be dismissive and the conversation goes as such:
-->'''Adam Jensen:''' Something, something, Death and taxes. Confucius.
-->'''Anonymous X:''' What? Wait, that - that's not it at all! That's not even close!

If you do knock him out....he really won't have that information anywhere on him. On the other hand, after you pay him, there's nothing stopping you from knocking him out and getting your money back.
