Now for the real question: is it actually IRC or just an in-game IRC-like interface?
The greatest hacking game of all time, Uplink, has an actual IRC client that you can buy and install on your in-game systems.
IRC pops up a lot in less obvious places too. The in-game chat in Warframe is IRC, but it handles all the server and channel connecting, locking you out of connecting to arbitrary servers.

Oh, I didn’t know that about Warframe chat! That’s an interesting way to implement chat in an MMO. Uplink is an excellent game.
Uplink is great!
