- Before the fight, the twins pose provocatively. Frank can take an Erotica picture of one of the twins, worth 2000 points, to unlock the achievement Adult Content.
- It's unknown if the twins were in on framing Chuck and were mocking him for it, or if they genuinely believed he caused the outbreak, or if they simply believed their own lies.
- Amber and Crystal are names of valuable types of rocks. The twins' dresses share the same color as their respective rock.
- At one point, Amber touches Rebecca's breasts. Whether the twins actually did find Rebecca attractive or if they simply wanted to intimidate her is unknown.
- Sometimes, the twins seductively touch each other. It is unknown if they actually are incestuous, or if they simply wanted to "tease" men.
- In one panel from Dead Rising: Road to Fortune, the twins are seen sexually touching TK, acting like they are attracted to him to promote him as a celebrity.
- The twins are the only psychopaths to have a theme that is a remix of an area theme. Their theme is named "Target Locked 5".
- The twins share some similarities to Mr. Gold and Mr. Silver from God Hand, as they both wear gold and silver outfits, and attack the same way as each other.
- A possible bug found during either Story Mode or Sandbox Mode; if you stand at the wall and wait until one of the twins charges at you, dodge it and attack behind them at the direction they're heading at, if successful, one of them will trip and fall out of the floor and remain stuck there. See Amber Bailey/Gallery to see the video.
