A specific phrase that gets attached to a specific character, something they are known for saying.
The act of bending at the knees from a standing position. Crouching is an essential part of many shooters and platformers, and can be used by players to stay behind cover or avoid incoming projectiles.
The concept of using two weapons at once, often for more damage at the cost of accuracy, the use of a shield, grenades, or other similar accessories.

Leaning is a concept that allows a character to angle their body. Often used to look around corners. Primarily found in First Person Shooters.
This stealth mechanic is based entirely on the enemies' range of vision. Light and shadows play no part in whether or not the enemy can see the player.
Losing consciousness is often a result of being knocked out or fainting. In games, this mental state is often used to allow a checkpoint to be reached, for the plot to be moved forward, or even for location changes. Sometimes it can be a state of limbo between health being depleted and actual death.
Female characters who are designed with highly idealized figures and proportions, outfits that are revealing and/or form-fitting, and prone to ending up in completely over-the-top poses designed to show off their bodies.
Whether it's to restore your health, save your game, just for the hell of it, or all of the above, sleeping in games has numerous uses.
Using stealth often requires the player to accomplish their objective without being detected by enemies. Methods of detection can vary from game to game, and can be based on an enemy's line of sight, how quiet the player is, or even how the player interacts with the environment.
A superhero is a fictional character of unprecedented physical prowess dedicated to acts of derring-do in the public interest.
