Sure, these days have almost every game sporting the newfangled 3D, but way back when, everyone had to live with plain old 2D. 2D, or two dimensions, limit the game to scrolling backgrounds, but some games even now make use of this basic concept.
Alternate realities are worlds that exists next to, in parallel of, or in place of our own.
A large, male cow. Does the bullfighting thing.
Feline animals commonly kept as pets. There are many different breeds and varieties.
A chicken is a small, domesticated flightless bird that can be white, yellow, brown or black. A female is a hen, a male a rooster, and a baby a chick.
The cutscenes are nothing but the pages of a comic book. Audio is usually dubbed over to give them a little more life.
Concerts are live performances before audiences, and have been culturally relevant for thousands of years. Their uses in games range from mere plot devices to entire design philosophies.
These prehistoric behemoths cause chaos amongst many. Unfortunately, they are extinct.
Dragons were originally messengers from heaven, according to early Buddhist texts. In games, they can be among the most fearsome of adversaries, but there are some exceptions.
A dark version of a game's hero, featuring many of the same powers. Usually wears black. Male evil twins often have goatees.
Cold-blooded aquatic animals that have scales and breathe through gills.
Genies, which originated from Arabia, are supernatural creatures that are magical and many can grant wishes. Some have a lamp or bottle and the owner of said item has power over them, including forcing them back into it and making them stay there.
More effective than any hospital. These games let you heal damage; ranging from a black eye to a gunshot wound, just by having a snack.
Japanese pop music, also known as J-Pop, refers to the most popular and mainstream music produced in Japan. It is commonly featured in many rhythm games as well as other genres.
Music in a game that can hurt enemies and/or the player. Note that causing damage with a musical instrument via physical means, such as by bashing an enemy over the head with a guitar, does not apply.
Pigs are pink, oinking mammals with a button nose and curly tail. They are rumored to eat a lot and be dirty. They don't fly, but they do bring home the bacon.
A Japanese wrestler. Often appears overweight.
A group of vampires who suck peoples' talent.
The concept of a character leaping forwards or backwards in time.
Vampires are undead, nocturnal creatures that subsist on blood. They have superhuman powers and are sometimes able to shape-shift. They are weak against sunlight, foreign objects stuck in and left in their hearts, decapitation and sometimes holy water and crosses.
