CS:GO, TF2, GTA5 and Trackmania (and likely many more) have replay systems where you can pause, play and rewind with a freefly camera. Lots of games have a rewind mechanic: Grid, Baba is You & Viewfinder come to mind. Others have a "Photo Mode" where you can pause with a freefly camera: Starfield & Witcher 3 come to mind.

Talking about rewind mechanic in games, you can't possibly leave out Braid.

Valid, yeah. It occurs to me though that the difference is we are making a representation of the real world that can be manipulated like such, as opposed to a simulation of a fabricated world.
