* Bitterman doesn't look the tiniest bit like the other two male characters which come from ''II'' (Grunt and Stripe) and are inspired in the multiplayer models. That's because in ''II'' we never see his entire body and he isn't a selectable player in ''II'' either so we're seeing him in his actual form.

* The fight against [[VideoGame/{{Doom}} Phobos]] takes place in a map which only has armor, Rocket Launcher, Plasma Gun and Shotgun, plus armors and health items. All of the weapons and items are present in ''Doom'' as well. The only odd out is the [[SuperSpeed Haste]] power-up.

* The fight against [[VideoGame/QuakeI Ranger]] takes place in a map which has Rocket Launcher, Shotgun and Plasma Gun, plus an armor and medium/large health items. All of the weapons appeared in ''Quake'': the Shotgun is the default ranged weapon and the Rocket Launcher is iconic. As for the Plasma Gun, it appears in ''Dissolution of Eternity'' as a modified [[LightningGun Thunderbolt]], or if you'd like, in the guise of the Super Nailgun in the base game as the SNG is essentially a Plasma Gun that shoots nails instead.

Added DiffLines:

* It might seem odd that the QuadDamage only triples damage by default in this game. While this was done for balance sake, this is also the ''third'' Quake game so it fits the theme.

** The battle takes place in what looks like a cathedral being taken over by hell, and there's also the map's name ("Arena Gate"), considering that ''Quake'' is basically the first game in the series and (slip)gates are a common happenstance. How fitting.

Fitting as well, the map the battle takes place in has the Icon of Sin from ''Doom 2'' as a wall decoration, and it being the ''second'' map may also be a reference to Doom being the second FPS game created by Id after ''VideoGame/Wolfenstein3D''.

* Major, another character from [[VideoGame/QuakeII the Stroggos arc]] has appeared in the game. The only thing is that she underwent a GenderFlip situation, as in ''II'' she was made a ''male'' selectable model.
