* ''[[Harry Potter (video game)|Harry Potter]]'' games require some stupid player actions in order to follow the plot of the games. E.g., in some versions of [[Harry Potter (Franchise)/Harry Potter and The Philosopher's Stone|the first game]], you can't put your invisibility cloak back on after sending Norbert away, since getting caught is essential to the plot of the source material.
* At the beginning of ''[[God of War (series)|God of War]] 2'', Kratos is faced against the Colossus come to life. Zeus, who had just shrank him down and took some of his godly power, gives him a sword. However, in order to effectively use the sword, you must put all your godly energy into it. Gee, what could possibly go wrong? What you mean it's a trap? And yes, the only way to beat the boss is to put all of your god energy into it, even though it didn't really serve a purpose.
** The crowning glory is that the only reason you lose the sword is due to Kratos's [[Cutscene Incompetence]] - if Kratos had ''moved slightly to the left'' instead of gloating while the Colossus was falling, the entire game may have been avoided...
