10 Most Paused Video Game Moments Ever

1. Wait, Is That Connor McGregor?! - Call Of Duty: Infinite Warfare

The Call of Duty franchise is no stranger to getting A-List celebrities to star in its games, with everyone from Kevin Spacey to Jeff Goldblum showing up at some point. When it comes to Infinite Warfare, then, the big face starring in the title was Game of Thrones' Kit Harington, with much of the pre-release material highlighting his performance as the shooter's main antagonist.

However there was another celeb scanned into the game that you might have missed entirely unless you were closely following the marketing. Showing up for the game's first big action sequence, the player is pummelled by an enemy soldier who, upon closer inspection, turns out to be none other than UFC's Connor McGregor.

You might have had to do a double-take at first, as he admittedly looks very similar to many of the non-noteworthy goons who show up throughout the game, but it is The Notorious himself.
