1	* About two thirds through the sequel, Cocheta finally gets through to the military HQ and we get this exchange:
2	-->'''Cocheta:''' HQ! Answer, Goddammit!\
3	'''Military Dispatcher:''' What? Who's this?\
4	'''Cocheta:''' Delta-2! We need a pick-up near Northside Park!\
5	'''Military Dispatcher:''' ''[hysterically]'' What do you want ''me'' to do?\
6	'''Cocheta:''' Send a pick-up, you moron!
7	* One of John's lines for running over a civilian in the first game is a cheeky nod to ''Film/NightOfTheLivingDead1990''.
8	-->'''John:''' You bunch of yo-yos!
9	** One of his lines is a reference to the famous BoomHeadshot meme when he runs over a zombie or a soldier. It also helps that his voice actor, Joshua Tomar, has a pretty similar voice to the one in the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovsVU6mktOw classic video]].
10	* The dissonance of a military chopper firing 30 mm chaingun and Hellfire missiles at you while desperately yelling: "STOP! THIS IS A MATTER OF NATIONAL SECURITY!" and "STOP! OR [[ThreatBackfire YOUR VEHICLE WILL BE DESTROYED]]!" is as jarring as it sounds.
11	* The first commander's gradually more frustrated responses for the checkpoint crews failing to stop Creasman. As well as the soldiers reporting it in a way that they're afraid of the commander chewing them out.
12	-->'''Checkpoint 1:''' Checkpoint to Base! We're unable to stop our target! It's continuing its run on Highway 65!\
13	'''HQ Commander:''' You couldn't stop a single car!\
14	-\
15	'''Checkpoint 2:''' Checkpoint to Base! We confirm a black car coming our way. Orders are to take him out?\
16	'''HQ Commander:''' Affirmative!\
17	-\
18	'''Checkpoint 2:''' Checkpoint to Base.,, Uhhh... the target is still going.\
19	'''HQ Commander:''' ''Are you kidding me?!'' Maintain your position. The ''next'' checkpoint will handle him.\
20	-\
21	HQ Commander: Base to Checkpoint 4! Stop this prick, will ya?!\
22	Checkpoint 4: We'll try, sir!\
23	-\
24	'''Checkpoint 4:''' Uh... It's a negative, sir. Target's still going.\
25	'''HQ Commander:''' ''This is a bad joke!'' [[PrecisionFStrike DAMN it!]]
26	** Also this exchange:
27	-->'''Soldier:''' Target in sight. Orders?\
28	'''Commander:''' ''[[AskAStupidQuestion What do you think?!]]'' '''KILL HIM!'''
