hat

Treasured as sacred relics to Team Fortress 2 players, hats are a form of cosmetic headgear that have no gameplay effects whatsoever. Despite the fact that they're completely inconsequential to the game itself, people seem to do ANYTHING just to get their useless hats, from trading, to Steam game promotions, and even through micro-transactions.
Average TF2 player: Willing to trade 5 flare guns for a Towering Pillar of Hats

Spectre

An agent of the Citadel office of Special Tactics and Reconnaissance. Although based on the Salarian Special Tactics Group, Spectres are expected to rely on their own resources, rather than being constantly funded by a governing body. However, they usually operate outside the bounds of galactic law.

Rather than being trained, the Citadel Council selects notable soldiers who have proven themselves capable of the strenuous responsibilities of upholding galactic law. Some agents are sympathetic peacekeepers who resolve issues with minimal bloodshed, while others are cold-blooded killers who eliminate problem individuals.
Asari Councilor: Commander Shepard - step forward.

Asari Councilor: It is the decision of the Council that you be granted all the powers and privileges of the Special Tactics and Reconnaissance branch of the Citadel.

Salarian Councilor: Spectres are not trained, but chosen. Individuals forged in the fire of service and battle; those whose actions elevate them above the rank and file.

Asari Councilor: Spectres are an ideal, a symbol. The embodiment of courage, determination, and self-reliance. They are the right-hand of the Council, instruments of our will.

Turian Councilor: Spectres bear a great burden. They are protectors of galactic peace, both our first and last line of defense. The safety of the galaxy is theirs to uphold.

Asari Councilor: You are the first human Spectre, Commander. This is a great accomplishment for you and your entire species.

Shock combo

In the Unreal Tournament franchise, it is the explosive result of hitting a shock orb with the Shock rifle's primary fire. This maneuver however, requires perfect aiming while moving around in order for this technique to be reliable. Additionally, you can intercept an enemy's shock orb to pull one off.
Example A: Player couldn't avoid the blast from Xan's shock combo.
Example B: Gorge made a tactical error with his shock combo.
