A firearm larger than a pistol, without the range or barrel length of a rifle, or the speed of a true machine gun.

Submachine guns are basically firearms that can be fired in single, burst, or automatic fire with equal ease over short to medium ranges, after which point they become less effective due to inaccuracy.

Submachine guns can actually be rather large, like an MP5SD or FN P90, or small, like a Mac-10. Having akimbo SMGs is becoming amazingly popular in action moves and video games. (though in realistic games and real-life, are not reccomended due to heavy recoil and inaccuracy)
I turned the corner and was immediately pelted with lead. The guy had a submachine gun.

The same basis of Milky Juice's definition, but in Football, the amount of time after the ball is punted, and before it hits the ground.
And he has punted the ball...straight into outer space! Sorry folks, we can't continue the game until the ball hits the ground and we can stop the hangtime counter, and by the looks of it, the football is heading into the sun...

The right that an artist (occasionally called artistic license) or writer has, to let him or her deviate from fact or conventional ideas. This is usually to make things more interesting, or try to introduce radical ideas.

This is commonplace from past to present, from the history of music or the history of games; companies and people have tried something crazy and new, and people liked them, like the Team-based Realism Genre that Counter-Strike introduced, or the RTS\FPS hybrid that Natural Selection and Savage have used.

Short for Deus Ex Machina, or the literary term for an event or person coming out of the blue and doing something miraculous or unprecedented.

The game of the same name has your character, JC Denton coming from nowhere and changing the world drastically in a matter of days.
We worked as slaves to the terrible aliens for years, and then Eminem came over and detonated a nuke on the planet. Talk about Deus Ex!
