1* As Nate's briefing his team, Cutter constantly interjects, explaining a ''Film/JamesBond'' reference and when T.E. Lawrence is brought up, responds with "[[Film/LawrenceOfArabia Great film.]]"
2** "Great, next time my back is turned [[Literature/OfMiceAndMen you'll have your gun pointed at me and tell me to think about the rabbits.]]"
3** He corrects a common BeamMeUpScotty [[{{Inuniverse}} in-universe]] with great irritation: "It's '[[Theatre/{{Macbeth}} Lay on, Macduff]]!'"
4** When John Dee's signature comes up, he almost starts explaining the relation between it and Franchise/JamesBond before he's interrupted.
5* One that comes with a hefty dose of FridgeHorror: In the pub, there's a newspaper on the wall headlined "Scientists Are Still Struggling To Understand Deadly Fungus". The action's happening in 2011 - exactly two years before TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt from ''Videogame/TheLastOfUs''. Though obviously the ''Uncharted'' sequels mean it's confined to ProductionForeshadowing status rather than a SharedUniverse.
6* An upset Sully growls "What is this black ops bullshit?" after [[spoiler:Team Drake realizes that Charlie Cutter has been hit with some manner of mind-control dart.]] In ''VideoGame/CallOfDutyBlackOps'', the big plot twist is that [[spoiler:the main character, Alex Mason, has been brainwashed for most of the game.]]
7* The bus has a [[VideoGame/LittleBigPlanet Sackboy]] doll hanging from the front mirror.
8* As Nate wanders through the desert, the voice-over recites an unattributed excerpt from Creator/TSEliot's "Literature/TheWasteLand".
9* There's a medal in the multiplayer called [[Film/SnakesOnAPlane Drakes On A Plane]].
10* In the chapter "Abducted", Ramses' ship is named "The Seaward", which is also the name of Gob's boat in ''Series/ArrestedDevelopment''.
