(I've changed the trivia info about the prosthetic arm, as the game never outright states he has a bionic arm, and it has been replaced by a normal looking arm in the final version of the game. You may remove the additional speculation if you wish....)

* Tom had a prosthetic left arm in the early version of the game, as evident from [[:File:Manual1.png|early screenshots]] and [[:File:Front_cover.jpg|promotional material]]<ref>{{map text|111|178}}</ref>, but it appears to have been scrapped from the final version of the game as it was removed from the paper doll in the inventory and all his ingame images feature normal arms and hands. Also there are no mentions or references to it in the game except a single line, when Tom asks Rainer about his injuries after the shuttle crash, to which Rainer replies that Tom has only had some broken bones, burns and possible minor injuries, as well having hit his head, finishing the dialogue with "Your prosthesis is operational." Given that Tom only thanks him for the information and nothing is ever mentioned or said about it again, not even what was the prosthetic for (since without having known about the early version and promotional materials, the player wouldn't know), seems to imply that he was originally supposed to have had the prosthetic arm from the start of the gameand Rainer was only commenting about its functionality after the accident, as there is no one who would've been able to create the bionic arm for him (and mostly likely attach it as well) after the crash. Therefore it seems the oneliner is a leftover from the early version of the game and the developers just forgot to delete it.
