Some games used that bleeding effect to create special effects lol. I forgot which game, but one game has a character having glowing red eyes because of the bleeding of the red pixel. On a LCD, it looks like a red square lol.

That one is Symphony of the Night, one of the most well known examples of the effect in use.
