A small Syphon Filter Easter egg i missed is in the form of a sign that serves as an ad for oil "Filters" with the word "Syphon" written on them, you can find the sign at the "Crazy Willie's" gas station, here is an image of it in this link: imgur.com/9pjj4Nm Also Credit to @FoxHand for finding Mujari's Dossier from Logan's Shadow, the dossier says that Mujari's ranking is "Assistant Chief of Operations", he can still be called a "Lab Tech" tho cause he wears a lab coat most of the time and only deals with science stuff in the last 2 SF games
Great Video! It's awesome that you found and got the chance to talk with John Chacon! I miss the PS1 Syphon Filter games that 2 of my older brothers and I used to play as kids. I'm glad there's still fans out there who still remember this series! 👍
Nice video! I also personally think the "Auto Shotgun" (reward for killing hordes) is also a reference to the USAS-12 Shotgun in some of the syphon filter games. Specially in SF 2 and 3 that shotgun stands out for being available in only 1 or 2 missions respectively, iconic ones at that (Chance and Rhoemer fights) and being super strong. The model is very similar with a 12-bullet, extended mag, automatic shotty.
I will forever remember Syphon Filter 1, 2 and 3. All of the memorable quotes of the characters still echo through my brain. I still remember the burning terrorr1st that rushed towards you in the subway station. I can still hear him scream in pain xD I am lucky enough to play these 3 through emulators but i REALLY want a proper new Syphon Filter with a new engine.
Great work! All compiled and accurate! I'll add that Skizzo was a heavy reminder of Chance when I first played Days Gone, so I consider him as another SF similarity. And Kouri was Mujari's double for me. :) Yet Sarah never glimpsed as Addison in my mind. I also had found "Xing" sign along the roads, and I be like: Lian Xing referrence! Tho I know it's not a referrence, just a normal road sign, lol.
yeah i can see how Skizzo and Chance come off as similar, except that Chance was supposed to be a good likable guy at first while Skizzo was sketchy from the start, Kouri shares a little bit of pacifism with Mujari but he's no scientist lol, actually weaver is also a little similar to Mujari now that i think of it wow i never saw that "Xing" sign, good catch, if you can, send me a video of it
Great work man! I thought that Days Gone is the result of the bad ending and takes place in the same universe as Syphon Filter, it would have been nice if some characters from Syphon Filter had cameo appearances in Days Gone.
Huge kudos for making this, I never got around to playing the game but the fandom used to always talk about the numerous references the game had to Syphon, but I had no idea there was this much. 💪Now that I think of it, I wonder if Bend put any Syphon references into that Uncharted game they made for Vita? Hmm lol 🤔
I only recently found the opportunity to play the PC version of Days Gone, and dude i can't recommend it enough!. You bring an interesting point, maybe there are SF references in Uncharted or hell even that Resistance game they made.
@@LeyoSFO I forgot they brought it to PC, now I don't have an excuse to keep missing out haha. And yeah good shout on that Resistance game, shit I'll nab a copy and play that too since I never played it. IIRC it had similar controls to the Syphon PSP games, think it ran on the same engine.

i wouldn't mind that if it was simply a challenges mode-only character cameo, other than that, making them canon would hurt SF's legacy imo
Thank you for this. Long live to the Syphon Filter saga, especially, the ps1 games

yup, it shares the engine with Logan's Shadow
When i found this was syphon filter i got hyped since i was already thinkin of a syphon filter sequel with zombies
Amazing work !
Awesome stuff 🙌
