Trivia
Some copies of the SiN demo carry the nasty CIH virus, which corrupts your hard disk and BIOS on the 26th of the month. These infected copies came into circulation from players who downloaded the demo onto their infected computer, then uploaded the demo to their website for people to download.
In the first level, there is a safe hidden behind a picture in one of rooms in the bank (the one with only one picture). In the safe there are two boxes of Quake: Scourge of Armagon games!

On December 4, 1998, SiN was put on the infamous German index by the BPjS. For more information about what this means and to see a list of games sharing the same fate, take a look here: BPjS/BPjM indexed games.

Sin featured the first-ever multiplayer level with multiple gravity axis (the Escher house-themed paradox), as well as the first commercial miniaturization level (spry), which let players duke it out in a giant living room.
Ritual Entertainment released a free Capture The Flag multiplayer add-on along with the Sin 1.04 patch.
In a few levels in the game (SinTEK Chemical Plant part 1, Sinclaire estate etc.) you can see issues of the computer game magazine PC Zone laying on tables. The developers were so impressed by the coverage of PC Zone that they included the front cover of that issue in the game.

The success of the first SiN movie has led to ADV's decision to create another SiN movie.

When Sin was first released, it was so buggy that, at one point, the first boss just stood still while you hit him with all you had!
