An easter egg in this context is something placed into the game by its makers that shouldn't be there. In SH3 there was a submarine under construction in the home ports, and underneath it were a couple of equipment crates with the logo of the band U-2 on them. In SH4 there are...well, that's what this thread is about.
You find them in almost every game, and it's a game in itself just to spot them and point them out to other players.
If you have a DVD of Star Wars Episode II (I think it is), when the ships are descending to the planet for the big battle if you freeze-frame it, through the window of one of the ships you can see the pilot is Homer Simpson. That's an easter egg.
