Especially if they're coin-guzzling arcade machines. ** In [[The Grim Adventures of Billy ~~and~~& Mandy]] when Grim complains about a game his is playing cheating, the character actually calls him a wimp and shoots his score, resetting it to zero. * Teal'c encounters this trope in a season 8 episode of [[Stargate SG-1]].

Hijinks ensue. ** Notably the computer cheats so blatantly and repeatedly that in the end they resolve the situation by doing what any self-respecting gamer would do: [[Good Bad Bugs\|exploit a bug in the program]] to cheese the system, sending Daniel in to help while granting him tactical precogniton.
