The publisher of the PS2 game I was working on threatened to pull funding if the game didn't maintain a steady 30fps. It ran at 20 at best. We couldn't optimise it any more so eventually just wrote some code that added 10 to the FPS counter. They were happy, game shipped on time

Haha, basically yes!
FPS = frames per second, which refers to how fast the TV picture updates. The computer/console has to produce each picture itself, and when there's too much to do the FPS will decrease. FPS can be displayed on-screen, but the confessor's FPS counter showed a non-truthful value.
