==Diablo Easter Eggs in Other Games==
 
The Diablo games are milestones in video game history, and have been referenced in numerous other titles, both RPGs and other types of games. This section lists Easter Eggs in other games that refer to elements of Blizzard's Diablo games.
 
 
===Borderlands===
 
''Borderlands'', a role-playing shooter created by Gearbox, included a number of homages to Diablo. [http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/borderlands-homage-to-a-d2-monster/]
 
* A demon named {{iw|Rakanishu Rakanishu}}.
* A weapon called {{iw|Butcher the Butcher}} with, "Ahhh… Fresh meat" in its description.
* A unique item called the "cracked sash," with very high stats. (This reverses the common Diablo 2 joke about a worthless item drop that contained only a "cracked sash."
 
 
===Hellgate: London===
 
Flagship Studios was formed in 2003 by [[Max Schaefer]], [[Erich Schaefer]], [[David Brevik]], and [[Bill Roper]] along with numerous other former [[Blizzard North]] employees. Their first (and last) title was Hellgate:London, an ARPG set in a demon-infested, post-apocalyptic future. The title was directly influenced by Diablo in numerous ways, but only included a few direct homages.
 
The most obvious was Wart, an annoying, one-legged NPC boy who was the object of some early game quests. He was an homage to the infamous one-legged {{iw|Wirt Wirt}}, of Diablo 1 and Diablo 2 fame.
