This section will probably never be complete as there is many references I don't even get. Reading this will kind of be a spoiler to the game, but it may also make you aware of what to watch or play before playing this game to get the most comedy out of it. It's up to you really.

Doom - Shown on a computer, final boss (don't view if you don't want it ruined).

The Matrix - Poster in your room.

GTA : Vice City - Poster in your room.

Shadowman - Guy you meet in the bar is from Shadowman.

The Ring - TV in the hotel is showing scene from The Ring.

Fresh Prince of Bel-air - Jack is watching it on tv.

Max Payne -Shown on a magazine cover.

Undying - Pretty much the whole Hotel map is based from Undying.

Die Hard - Perhaps a reference to the title of the game "DayHard"

Farcry - One of a few pictures located in several rooms.

Ghostbusters - Poster located in several rooms.

Half-Life 2 - Too many references and occurrences to list.

Half-Life 2 : Lost Coast - Commentary boxes, and poking fun at Valve's commentary in the Lost Coast.

The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly - Picture of Clint Eastwood from the movie, and other dialogs taken from the movie.

Scarface - "The Ugly" says "Say hello to my little friend", which is from the movie.

Painkiller - Could be where the god-mode icons idea came from.

Kill Bill - This may or may not be where the Katana comes from, but also a lot of the music in the game sounds like it's from Kill Bill, or other westerns.

Serious Sam - Not sure, user submitted.

Silent Hill - Not sure, user submitted.

Soldier Of Fortune - Not sure, user submitted.

Postal - The general "feel" of the game is reminisent of Postal, specifically Postal 2. This may or may not be true.
