It's not cyberpunk to my knowledge, but there's apparently a story out there that makes fun of this type of sci fi description writing, by telling what seems to be a military adventure story about going to fight and conquer some aliens, but is revealed by the very end to actually have been the story of the conquistador that conquered the Inca empire, but with everything described this way such that it sounds like more advanced technology than it is.
