I love the maps in the loading screens from Infernal Machine. Something universally recognizable that screams "Indiana Jones" to me, plus you get to read names of countries that no longer exist. However, I also noticed that they hid references to two beloved LucasArts games in the loading screen map for the Teotihuacan level! See the attached screenshot (because of the resolution you might have to zoom in a lot).
There is a fictional island in the Caribbean, south of Cuba, which is labelled "Melee", the very first island that you get to visit as Guybrush Threepwood in the Monkey Island series. And in Mexico, you can see a city called "El Marrow", which is the city where Manny Calavera lives and works at the beginning of Grim Fandango (which, while taking place in the afterlife, was inspired by Mexican culture and folklore).
Always fun to find these little Easter eggs. :)
