10 Best Video Game Easter Eggs, Secrets & References Of 2019

The Gears of War games aren't known for their nuance and subtlety. High brow humour was left at the door when the guns with chainsaws were being handed out, but that's not damning criticism. Sometimes you need to dumb things down with toasters and giant chickens just to lighten the mood.

This cheeky little Easter egg is found on the multiplayer map, Asylum, and involves a bit of risk taking. You have to stand on the train tracks and dive out of the way of both incoming trains. You really need to leave it until a hair's breadth to move for this to work, but it's worth the risk.

For the next time you see a train coming, you'll hear a familiar "Woo!" and see none other than Augustus Cole dancing atop the train. Why, you wonder?

Well, in his Thrashball days, he was known as the Cole Train. So he's Cole, on a train. Cole Train on a train. Geddit?

Told you, it doesn't have to be high brow to be funny. But it is funny.
