Reference in Other Works
Tiberium is referenced in other works of art as well. The Sims 3: World Adventures, a 2009 video game by Electronic Arts, features Tiberium that can be obtained in the form of a relic from Egypt, combining certain combinations of relics using a Carter's series display case, or breaking space rocks using the Board Breaker. It will start out as a small Spire Cut Tiberium that can be sold for a comparatively small amount of Simoleons (video game's fictional currency), then after a few days, it will become a Large Spire Cut Tiberium worth around 30k Simoleons. Leaving a Large Spire Cut Tiberium out on the lawn will spawn more Spire Cut Tiberium. Leaving a piece of Tiberium in a Sim's inventory for a while will give the Sim "Tiberium Poisoning", which drops the Sim's mood by 20, causes them to become very sick and vomit frequently. Unlike the "Command and Conquer" series Tiberium, The Sims 3 Tiberium will not spread.
In SimCity 4, when placing industrial zones, a high-tech industry named Kane Tiberium will eventually appear.
"1 Cup of Tiberium" is listed as an ingredient for the poison recipe in Lady Gaga's video Telephone.

Famous quotes containing the words reference and/or works:
“The common behavior of mankind is the system of reference by means of which we interpret an unknown language.”
—Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)
“I shall not bring an automobile with me. These inventions infest France almost as much as Bloomer cycling costumes, but they make a horrid racket, and are particularly objectionable. So are the Bloomers. Nothing more abominable has ever been invented. Perhaps the automobile tricycles may succeed better, but I abjure all these works of the devil.”
—Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
