The famous Konami Code is back again, and this time around it would be Google’s very own Voice Search that offers you access to unlimited free Google searches. Yes, that was a joke, as performing a Google search does not cost you any money at all in the first place, but still, it is cool to go to a Google search bar and speak via Voice Search, saying “Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right.”

I love Bravely Default. It’s one of the best RPGs I’ve played in a long time. I had so much fun playing it that I made a mini-guide for a certain part of the game. So I headed to GameFAQs, and while I was figuring out how to write my guide I came upon this neat Easter Egg for the game. I can’t describe the trick without spoiling a major feature of the game though. You’ve been warned.
Here’s your final warning. SPOILERS INCOMING! Okay, Amigo-bot, here’s the trick. As you know, the game’s Start screen has four main options. Normally the fourth option will only be unlocked if you get the game’s “true ending”, which needless to say takes a long time to obtain. But YouTuber Shmiam found out that you can temporarily unlock that option by entering the Konami Code. More specifically, at the Start Screen, point the cursor to the fourth option then enter the code. The contents of that option are shown in Shmiam’s video as well, so you might want to stop watching after he demonstrates the trick.
I already got the fourth option before I found out about this trick, so I can’t verify if it works. That said, when I tried it I also heard the exact same sound effect that Shmiam got. Switch to the Browser Job and head to GameFAQs if you want further assurance that the code works.
Google has always had a funny or rather, cheeky side to them when it comes to Easter Eggs, and over the years, they have had their fair share of fun releases. This Christmas season, Google intends to expand their Easter Egg collection by transforming your mobile devices into karaoke machines. It does not matter whether you are standing on the Android or iOS divide, all you need to do is to type “Let’s go caroling” into your phone or tablet’s Google Search app, and you will be able to select from five famous carols.
Regardless of which carol you choose, each of them will come with corresponding music and lyrics. All you need to do then is to press play, and sing along to “O Christmas Tree” without having to suffer the embarrassment of forgetting any of the lyrics. Just in case you are in a situation where it is extremely noisy and you are unable to hear the sound from your device’s speakers, just follow the red bouncing ball that follows the words, and you’re good to go, although we have received reports that it does lag at times on the way to the beginning of the next line. What other kinds of Easter Eggs from Google is the most memorable one for you?

Don’t you just love Easter Eggs? I am not referring to the kind where you are able to eat after peeling away at the beautifully painted shell, but rather, the kind of surprises that developers put in their software or work to surprise users upon its discovery. GTA 5 has nearly 30 of those, while Google Maps too, has a Tardis Easter Egg. When it comes to the Barnes & Noble NOOK GlowLight, it might not seem as though it is capable of browsing the Internet with a browser, but if you know where to look, one browser has been tucked away in the GlowLight, although a little bit of work is required to uncover it.
This is not the first time that B&N has shipped a NOOK eReader with a hidden web browser, and we are not quite sure whether it will be the last, either. It is there to help you locate something on the Internet should you happen to have issues with linking up your NOOK to a Google account. On the bright side, you can also tap a few buttons to check out a Google search box that can then be used to perform a search on the web. Far from being a fully functional web browser, you will not find any Back button or download manager, but hey, something is better than nothing, right? Enjoy the video above of the NOOK GlowLight browser trick.
