over-the-counter counterculture

When something that appeals to those who'd rather do their own thing is sold by a corporation. A textbook example is Hot Topic appealing to the punk/emo/metal scene by selling shirts with "clever" sayings and emblems of punk bands that were big in the decade before. Another example would be pre-ripped jeans. When attemps to stand out are made easy by going to the mall, rather than actually embracing the counterculture itself.

Gaygar counter

A device for measuring gaydiation; similar to gaydar, but used to measure flamboyant (i.e. dangerous) gayness rather than to subtly distinguish those in the closet from metrosexuals.
Man, my gaygar counter is going crazy. Your gaydiation levels are off the charts.

cross counter

A cross-counter is a counter-attack begun immediately after an opponent throws a jab, exploiting the opening in the opponent's position.

In fighting games, it is used in the same context, and it is sometimes mentioned in tournaments. Characters that have long attack animations, blocking the attack and then proceeding to counter attack while they are exiting the attack animation is considered a cross counter.
Roy's side smash takes a while to complete, so you can block it and cross counter before he finishes.

the counter-strike effect

A loss in interest in Casual Gaming in titles such as "Call of Duty" or "Grand Theft Auto V". This effect is caused by being introduced to "Casual Competitive" Gaming from titles like "Counter-Strike", "Rainbow Six Siege", and etc.
