* In ''VideoGame/{{Control}}'', you will occasionally come across instructional films recorded by the head scientist Dr. Darling, which helps [[MrExposition fill in]] some of the background of the story and the Oldest House. There's also a [[SubvertedKidsShow creepy low-budget puppet show]] called ''Threshold Kids'' created by some of the Bureau's employees.

* ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid4'' has the creepiest television ever. Cookery shows which use benzene! Advertising which emphasizes self-poisoning! The least creepy was the CelebrityParadox-causing "Celebrity Moralist" short, and even that was horrible.

Added DiffLines:

* Every game in the ''Franchise/{{Splatoon}}'' series often greets the player with a news show hosted by an idol group whenever the game is booted. Depicted on a giant street screen, the news will showcase the current stages in rotation, game updates, as well as the occasional Splatfest news, and even give players a hint about Story mode's events whenever they're starting for the first time. In the first two games, the news is practically a mandatory thing to watch, as you're gonna have to spam the A button if you want to head straight to gameplay. This becomes averted by the [[VideoGame/Splatoon3 third game]], where Inklings watch the news on their phones instead as well as given the ability to skip the news and wander while the news is still playing (However, Splatfest-related news cannot be skipped.)

* The ''VideoGame/HarvestMoon'' series usually has a TV you can watch. In some cases, it's something like the TV equivalent of a PamphletShelf--the "shows" are short and silly. In others, they're still short, but they form a complete story--for example, ''VideoGame/HarvestMoonFriendsOfMineralTown'' has "My Fair Princess", a fairy-tale show about a princess and a Demon Lord, which actually has its own little story arc. (In ''VideoGame/HarvestMoonDS'', you can actually get the full show on DVD and "watch" all the episodes.)

* Similarly, ''VideoGame/StardewValley'' has a TV with multiple useful channels, covering weather, luck, cooking recipes, and gameplay tips. You can also unlock a movie theater and invite friends (one movie per season on a two-year cycle, plus a concession stand and a crane minigame with new decoration items).

* In ''VideoGame/{{Webkinz}}'', if you buy a TV for your pet, you can watch The Secret Chef (hosted by Chef Gazpacho), Monkey & Monkey Show, and Winners' Shows (shows created in the Webkinz Studio that have won contests in Webkinz).

to:

* In ''VideoGame/{{Webkinz}}'', if you buy a TV for your pet, you can watch three different shows. The first is The Secret Chef (hosted Chef, hosted by Chef Gazpacho), Gazpacho, which serves a purpose in showing off different recipes you can make (although sometimes one of the ingredients is wrong, and you'll have to figure out the correct one yourself). The Monkey & Monkey Show, Show is a stand-up comedy show. Both of these have a few episodes each and full voice acting. The last is Winners' Shows (shows created Shows, which are [[OfficialFanSubmittedContent skits made in the Webkinz Studio that have won contests hosted by Webkinz]], and thus vary in Webkinz).genre.

* At the beginning of ''VideoGame/{{Doom}} 3'', the player can watch a news broadcast on a TV at the cafeteria. There are also a few propaganda announcements on how groundbreaking and "safe" the UAC is.

** Driven home through judicious use of cheat codes. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RC5AGKMdLok&feature=related There's a video on YouTube]] where a guy no-clipped through the walls of an area, tracked down Breen's "studio", and shot him. He later ran across a TV that was supposed to be showing a Breencast, and it [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments showed an empty room]] [[BlackComedy with blood on the walls instead]].

* One of the earliest examples--possibly the UrExample--occurs in ''VideoGame/TheJourneymanProject 2: Buried in Time'', which includes a futuristic TV in Gage Blackwood's pad, on which you can watch a news program and view a commercial.
