Line 27:
* In the ''[[Unreal Tournament]]'' series of games everything typed in the console, which doubles as the text chat, is treated as a command. Only lines which start with a chat ("say", "teamsay") command are then broadcasted. Also, Every function in the game engine has a corresponding command, pressing any key has the effect of typing a console command without showing it in the console.
* ''[[Battle for Wesnoth]]'' is one of the least clunky pieces of open source software, but text commands (entered through the colon) are still the only interface for shuffling people around in multiplayer games.
* ''[[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]'' can be patched to play online. Most servers have hundreds of commands, and every one is different, so switching is always an exercise in frustration.
* Several text-based chat rooms use slash commands to action posts, choose font colors, and create new public or private rooms.
* ''Quake'', and all the games under the quake engine, use these too.
