Also, Samsung Apps to become Samsung Galaxy Apps from July 1 which means they're using SGA!

Menu's certainly look inspired by the Keen Galaxy ones.

They slide in from the sides of the screen also.

How could they refer to PI while it's clearly a Keen

Heh...
Here are some dopefishbreaking rules that will redefine what a "Stupid References are stupid" once and for all:
1. Every game that contains any number or any English letter that is in any Commander Keen game is a clear Commander Keen reference.
2. To further cement this, every game that has one or more lines of code in any language is clearly a reference to Commander Keen since Commander Keen also have lines of codes.
3. And even more, if any game is displaying even a single pixel in any color at any duration is without a doubt a Commander Keen reference.
So that concludes that any single game out there IS a Commander Keen reference on a computing level. As for the "real" world, I'd say:
1. Any object that has any amount of mass (lets say matter), is a Commander Keen reference.
2. Any antimatter is also a Commander Keen reference (or should I say Mortimer reference).
So can anyone find any flaws in these rules?

Well in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone there's a throwaway line that mentions Dudley got 16 computer games for his birtday. You know, 16, as in the number of colors on the EGA palette AND the of numerals in hexadecimal in all the patches; and Commander Keen is a computer game.
That has nothing to do with pixels or volumes of mass. I think we need some rules for keen references in media that aren't video games.
