**** Brad is a particularly major example, though. After he gets shot, you have to find medical supplies to make sure he doesn't die from the wound. Then you get further on, and he ends up locked in an underground parking lot with an army of zombies.

* In ''[[Call of Duty|Call of Duty 4]]'', one of the protagonists, a US Marine, rescues a downed helicopter pilot and gets and his squad evacuates the capital. However, the villain sets off a nuke in his own capital, not only killing destroying most of the US expeditionary force, but crashing the Blackhawk the Marine was on killing both the "rescued" helicopter pilot and the player, who is only able to stagger out of the wrecked chopper's exit ramp before collapsing and expiring.

* ''[[Rhapsody a Musical Adventure]]'' has the Frog Kingdom: {{spoiler|after Micheal helps you retrieve the Earth Stone, the [[Jerkass]] King abruptly has him executed for grossly exaggerated 'crimes', just to keep him away from his daughter. Princess Caroline commits suicide shortly thereafter. While Cornet still technically got what she needed from the whole ordeal, the [[Mood Whiplash]] alone is staggering.}}

* ''[[Super Robot Wars Original Generation]]'', especially the 2.5/Gaiden. According to the OVA that it's based on, once Kyosuke saved Lamia from the Bartolls, all should be well. So they're free to chat leisurely, right? Then Juergen pops by and shot down Lamia, making everyone think she's dead and Kyosuke failed to save her. It then continues for the true save later in the Duminuss arc, though.

* ''[[Castlevania|Castlevania: Lament of Innocence]]''. Leon Belmont just saved his lover Sara Trantoul from the vampire Walter Bernhard. Just when Leon thought he could just put everything behind, he found out one nasty thing: Sara has been vampirized and is about to suffer [[Fate Worse Than Death]]. He's forced to use his Whip of Alchemy to put Sara out of misery, incidentally evolving it to the legendary Vampire Killer. Cue Leon's [[Roaring Rampage of Revenge]]. Oh, and the Vampire Killer has her soul sealed within it, for extra suckiness.
