* ''[[Metal Gear Solid 3 Snake Eater]]'', which could rightfully be called a massive [[Affectionate Parody]] to 60s and 70s spy movies, pulls an exceptionally well executed one, though it takes up to an hour. You overpower the guards, get the captured scientist, and make it back to the extraction point where Snake gets betrayed, thrown of a bridge, and as he pulls himself out of a river, the enemies detonate a nuke some miles in the distance.

* Video game example: ''[[Silent Hill 3]]'' starts with Heather in a spooky amusement park, armed with very little in the way of weapons, and wondering where she is.

* Some of the [[James Bond]] games. ''Everything or Nothing'' actually started you right in the first level, without giving you a menu or anything like it before.
