** The chapter in which Nate and Tenzin find Schaeffer's expedition is called "Heart of Ice". Given that the expedition ended with [[spoiler: the men going mad with power and having to be executed by Schaeffer]], it's pretty clear that this is a reference to Joseph Conrad's ''HeartOfDarkness''.

* {{Jossed}}: This seems to have happened to David O. Russell's concept for the film (before he quit), in which Drake's family apparently played a large part. As of ''Drake's Deception'', we now know that [[spoiler: Nate was raised in an orphanage, and Sully's effectively been Nate's substitute father since he was a teenager.]]

* DoingItForTheArt: The team at Naughty Dog could be called insane for the amount of work they put into these games. From doing motion capture and dialogue recording ''at the same time'' to squeezing every last bit of power out of the PS3's Cell Processor, the effort they go through to produce this amazing experience goes far, far beyond what is required to make these games a success. They don't just go the extra mile, they pave the road for everybody else.

* ShoutOut:
** A small nod to Naughty Dog's previous series ''JakAndDaxter'' in the form of Nate and Elena's "Ottsel" (ie. Daxter's species) brand wetsuits at the beginning of the game.
** Also, check out the back of the Gold (and Silver) Ingot treasures. There's a small paw print on them-- Naughty Dog's logo.
** Not to mention the Strange Relic treasure that can be found in the game; a Precursor Orb.
** Plus Nate's leather shoulder-holster-harness-thing has NDI written on the back of it, as does Harry Flynn's stylish T-shirt in his introductory cutscene.
*** The grenades are also called "Mk-NDI." Naughty Dog Incorporated.
** Don't forget the sequence in ''Among Thieves''. Sully and Nate even use the name of the movie, for god's sake.
** [[IndianaJones I HATE spikes!]] During a descending ceiling, no less!
** At the end of the Borneo level, when Sully and Nate have to jump off a cliff to escape, Sully tells him: "After you, [[ButchCassidyAndTheSundanceKid Butch]]." They both jump off the cliff into the water below, mirroring a famous scene from that movie. Nate even says, "Oh shiiiiiit!"
