- The Alan Wake ARG blog "This House of Dreams" documents the life of a woman named Samantha who lives in Ordinary, and experiences strange events. Samantha's blog is also mentioned in Control.
- In Quantum Break, a Quantum Ripple will lead to a severe power outage in the town of Ordinary, resulting in a spike in violent crime (though Quantum Break's reference states that Ordinary is in Maine), while at the release of Control, it was stated to be in Wisconsin.
- Prior to the release of AWE, the Ordinary AWE documentation in Control stated that Ordinary was located in Wisconsin. This was later changed to Maine. Quantum Break had previously stated that Ordinary was in Maine.
