Another example would be Max Payne where at some point you take the elevator where the classic annoying elevator music is played. You shoot the speaker (because you can in a game) and Max Payne goes "Thank you.".

First time I played that I nearly fell off the chair laughing :)

Uhm, of course Max takes the elevator and shoots, you just make him... or whatever.
