10 Ridiculous Adult Jokes Hidden In Video Games

1. Terrydactyland's Giant Rock-On (Banjo-Tooie)

While the enormous penis seen in Apex Legends is, at least, in a game with an adult age rating, this particular bit of phallic imagery is in a game that's aimed at kids.

Banjo-Tooie was released right at the turn of the century, and it's the type of classic platforming fare we got a lot of around that time. You jump and climb through a series of colourful levels - collecting "Jiggies" along the way - and everything, from the side characters to the sound effects, is extremely bright and whimsical.

It's hardly the type of place you'd expect to see something decidedly R-rated, and as such, a lot of players were probably quite surprised to find this oddly-shaped series of rocky platforms in the Terrydactyland section of the game.

This is one of the most famous cases of an adult joke like this being in a video game, and it's not hard to see why - that monster has clearly been sculpted with all the love, care and attention to detail in the world.
