GTA San Andreas:
Turn on the cheat that speeds everything up. Do this LOTS. Once everything is obscenely fast, get in a Rhino (armored car) and aim the turret at 90 degrees to the rest of the Rhino. Now, mash the fire button as fast as possible. The tank will flip... then right itself... then flip... then right itself... going faster and faster. After a dozen or so rotations, it'll suddenly bounce miles into the sky - far higher than any of the planes can go. After a VERY long descent, it'll bounce several times... then explode violently.

To get to the Bean Bean Kingdom in Super Mario Superstar Saga, you need to jump a skipping rope.

Metal Gear Solid 2:
After talking with Pliskin and Stillman, go STRAIGHT to the connecting bridge - if you're quick enough, you'll see 'someone' running away from an unconscious guard whilst wearing a cardboard box. If you shoot the box enough, it breaks, and he equips a new one. Now, call Pliskin - he's visibly distressed by what just happened.

More on Metal Gear2: When you first enter the Big Shell, You can obtain an electric razor, which Raiden gives to snake/Pliskin during the cutscene. If the razor is given to him, snake will appear clean-shaven in arsenal gear, if not, he will have the beard. It is also clear that Escape from NY is the major influence on Solid Snake when he uses the alias Iriquois Pliskin. Kurt Russel's character in Escape from NY/LA is Snake Pliskin.

When the medusa heads turn you into stone in Castlevania: Symphony of the night, you sometimes turn into a gargoyle statue.

Metroids can split in binary fission after exposure from beta-radiation (high-speed electrons. This is real radiation!!) They are affected by cold, mostly.
