One from UW2 that I missed loads of times until it was pointed out to me: "Uija ja Es. Dbu'a aflsfu nfaabhf.".
Ermm... what?
Some really quite nice ones. Stalker and other exploration games strike me as ones that could hide some quite interesting areas and secrets.
Another that i found out about is (

Don't forget xyzzy! \o/
I wonder which has more tributes in later games, xyzzy or dope-fish? Both have a lot.

Oblivion has a cavern, near Cloud Top, with a neat wrecked pirate ship and some ghosts. You have to hit a couple of hidden switches to find it. It's similar to the Thieves' Lair add on, but much smaller.
There was hardly a level in the entire series of Marathon games that didn't have some sort of goodies, ranging from literary references to access points for secret levels.
One of the Might & Magic games had a building that was shaped like Mickey Mouse's head if you looked at the in-game map. I laughed about that one for a good 10 minutes because it was so unexpected.
Having Max Payne thank me for shooting an elevator's muzak speaker was funny too.

Just shift the letters by one position: "Uija ja Es. Dbu'a aflsfu nfaabhf." becomes "Thiz iz Dr. Cat'z zekret mezzage". It's in Talorus, the world Dr Cat designed, among a load of scrolls.
