  • Sudden Videogame Moment
rdfs:comment
  • That moment when, in a live action film, anime, comic strip or other non-video game medium, one suddenly gets video game graphics for a scene. Can be either meant as a self-ironic joke, a would-be profound comment, or for purposes of narrative distantiation. If it's Played Straight, it's Watching a Video Game. Doesn't count if the characters are actually playing a video game: It becomes a Show Within a Show with the occasional Deep-Immersion Gaming sprinkled on. When done accidentally, it's Conspicuous CG. See also: Medium Blending. Examples of Sudden Videogame Moment include:
