* ''[[Halo Combat Evolved]]'' approaches this, especially in the Library, especially on Legendary difficulty level. The Flood will eventually stop respawning but in some areas it takes a ''really'' long time and killing them all can take more ammo than you have available.

* [[Left 4 Dead]] does this, with the only enemy that doesn't respawn being witches (being close to [[Demonic Spiders]] themselves due to using a 1-hit-KO attack on the survivor that alerts them).
