Why the names of (real world, not made-up) video games and other media are usually changed when used in fiction?

    In short, money.

    To use the real name would likely require licensing it. Not to mention that naming a game made by a company owned by one major media conglomerate, might be an issue when you’re a show made by a company owned by a different competing major media conglomerate.
