1. As an homage to the game, one of the dog tags that can be obtained in Metal Gear Solid 2 is of Jean Luc Cougar's.
2. A character in the game, Steven Legal, is a reference to B-movie action star Steven Seagal.
3. Though the hide and shoot gameplay is derivative of Time Crisis, WinBack was the first game to combine this with full control over your character.
