Examples

Bubble Breaker (only in some versions, including Windows Mobile): The Undo operation is accompanied by a "reversing" Sound Effect.
Braid: Reversing and forwarding time sounds analogous to performing such actions in a recording.
LittleBigPlanet: Reversing and forwarding actions sounds analogous to performing such actions in a recording.
Tomb Raider Underworld: Slow motion with effects and the with participation of the sound of Heartbeat.
