bullet time 

A highly sophisticated slow motion special effect technique used to show a bullet in flight. The action is slowed down to show the bullet traveling as it passes through the air. The bullet emits tracer rings to show its path and to show it tearing through the air. This technique was pioneered and made popular in the science-fiction film The Matrix. This technique has since been used in many movies and video games including Max Payne, Metal Gear Solid 2, and Charlie's Angels to name a few examples.

"Man that bullet time stuff is insane!"

"Bullet time kicks ass!"

bullet time battle 

Bullet time battles aka BTB’s are a class trial minigame in Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc.

They’re the most difficult minigame and don’t require much logic. You play a BTB by locking onto an opponents argument then shooting it to destroy it.

Person A: I’m playing danganronpa 1 and I can’t get past the first class trial. I’m almost done with it though.

Person B: are you having trouble playing the bullet time battle?
Person A: yeah
Person B: those suck.

Bullet-time 

A state of mind in which one speeds up their own reactions to a point where their own sense of time is altered and the world around them seems to have slowed. This causes the illusion that laws such as gravity have been bent, and the air around you feel like water, because you cant move or fall any faster than normal. People who can manipulate this can accomplish incredible feats that are seemingly impossible to do in real-time.
(Note: Bullet time is measured in relation to the speed of a bullet, hence the name.)

I was fighting these dudes, and then they pulled out guns. Then i went into bullet time; they never saw me coming.

Bullet-Time 

An over-used special effect in movies and video games that fucked up the cutscenes in Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes.

The Bullet-Time cutscenes in Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes made Solid Snake look like fucking Superman.
