Cyberflix itself would likewise find this with their later games, as they simply did not live up to TAOOT. Proposals to branch into potential sequel works sadly fell through as well.

* MemeticMutation: When Frank is instructed to find the painting, he offers to send a telegram for John B. Thayer instructing his train to be there when the ship arrives. However, the game does not need the exact telegram to be sent. A number of fans joke that they actually send "cancel train," some dark humor as Thayer perished in the sinking.

It had more to do with hardware limitations than storage space.


* SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: The ship is not actually a 3-D model, but pictures of the model in order to save space on the CD-ROM. Every time you move, the game loads the next picture in sequence to make it appear 3-D. It's completely seamless.

The sheer number of images needed for the Titanic is largely the reason why the game took up two discs.

** After you knock out Zeitel at the top of the funnel, you climb back down and get knocked cold by Vlad (notice a theme?) wielding a ''very large'' wrench. You come to, and the ship has already been sinking for over an hour (it's 1:05 AM) -- and you can hear things or people ''splashing into the water around the ship'' as you scramble to complete your mission before the last lifeboat leaves.
** And if you fail to do that in time, you get several minutes aboard the ship simply to run around and contemplate [[KillItWithWater your inevitable fate]].
