Ignore the hilarious cyclops-mammoth and gundam guy, just listen to the start of the music. Familiar, much?

Not the same chords as Keen's, and it's not like either had much in the way of melody, but still...

In the PS2 port of Deus Ex (a game created by Tom and Romero back during the Ion Storm days) I was having a pig of a time getting past a level. Resorting to cheats, I discovered that the cheat to destroy anything you target is in fact activated by entering the phrase Tantalus!

I think some of you are forgetting what the purpose of the thread is. References posted here should have the arguable possibility to be purely coincidental non-references.

I don't think this can be merged into another thread. But it can be made into its own topic if you deem it worthy.

Not at all related to Commander Keen other than having the same name or likeness. It also extends to an appearance of the number 314 or 315.

It has been 3.14 hours since I ate a banana.
Clearly this means bananas are the favoured fruit of Commander Keen.
Keening_Product was defeated before the game.
