    DeathSpank ToV has some good ones. I mean, one is introduced with a comedy cutscene, then you go through the door and realise you've gone back stage. A brief moment of "Oh cool!" before murdering every last member of the Hothead developement team...

    What about the secret hacked cheerleader room in Ultima VII?

    So...is anyone else suddenly going to go pick up Arkham Asylum again?

    Great feature, lots of memories.

    Aw, man, I love these features. Chris's room was especially handy.

    I also loved the "secret rooms" in Portal even though they weren't so secret. Going from the sterile hospital like test rooms to the backstage rusty, dirty rooms with all those weird messages was amazing.

    Coincidentally, Cracked had an article on Easter eggs which contains a couple of these rooms http://www.cracked.com/article_18801_9-video-game-easter-eggs-that-took-years-to-find.html

    i think the arkham asylum room should be number 1,i have still been playing the game and have had no idea it existed! also the half life 2 room with the vort in the pipe on the airboat level shouldve been included :O

    Mario warp zone was my first warp zone. When I first did it as a 3 year old on my dad's NES I thought the game was broken as I was running outside the level. Grand Top 7 Justin.

    Does anyone remember the room in Resident Evil 2 that required fingerprint scans from both Leon and Claire? It had a few lickers inside, and smashed 'Tyrant' containers...I always wondered if I was missing something, because I could never see the point in it.

    Huh, that's pretty cool that Arkham Asylum one stayed under wraps for so long! Nice article.
