The famous Konami code strikes again, this time it has taken hold of a Los Angeles government website with lasers blasting

Hey, who says the government has no sense of humor or playfulness? Well, I suppose that's a matter of perspective, but in any case, here is a Konami code Easter egg making another debut. This time it's happening on a Los Angeles government website? The site involves keeping track of quarterly payroll earnings for such departments as animal services, building and safety, and so on. Are you bored yet? Yeah, this sort of thing isn't quite as fun as playing your favorite Contra game or Gradius game, but it has one merit. It makes use of the Konami code.

Now what supposedly happens when you enter Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A, and ENTER is this. A little arrow appears in the upper left hand corner, which you can control to shoot lasers at different items on the page, blowing up payroll numbers, the L.A. seal itself, and a few other things. By the time you read this, it might be gone, or rather, the Konami code itself might not be functional anymore. But the image below is the only proof I could find to show you a small example of what the Easter egg actually does. The bottom image is another example that happened on the Vogue website. We all never get tired of this sort of thing do we? Nope. Thanks to a fellow on the Reddit site for pointing this whole thing out.

What do they do, go around doing the Konami code on every website in existence?

A Nintendo Easter egg was found in Castlevania: Lords of Shadow - Mirror of Fate references Mario's brother Luigi

Just when I think I've seen everything, somebody always comes along and proves me wrong. That's quite alright with me, since it makes life more enjoyable. Such is the case with a cute Easter egg that someone found in the Castlevania game Lords of Shadow - Mirror of Fate. I thought we were done looking at that particular Konami game, but it's still getting some attention. How about a Nintendo based Easter egg that references Luigi, Mario's Brother? Yes, the world of two totally different game companies clash together in an unusual, but interesting way.

Here is the reference point. The kitchen area of MOF has pipes running through it, and along the way you will discover a dead body. Dead bodies within the game leave scrolls lying around. Scrolls which tell a tale of the last words and thoughts of that particular person. One of them had a Nintendo reference written upon it relating to Mario's brother Luigi, as you can see in the picture below. The video also showcases and explains the matter a bit better from a fellow who took the time to point out where exactly you can find it.
