* ''[[City of Heroes]]'': Tyrant and Dominatrix ([[Evil Counterpart|Evil Counterparts]] to Statesman and Ms. Liberty) had [[Parental Incest|Grandparental Incest]] behind the development team's back. It has since been [[Retcon|Ret Conned]] out of the story, after it was pointed out.

** It was vaguely hinted at to be happening - largely for [[Squick]] reasons - back when the [[Mirror Universe|Praetorians]] were simply [[Evil Counterpart|Evil Counterparts]] to the signature heroes. Now that they're [[Grey and Gray Morality|morally ambiguous]] and important characters in their own right, it would be out of place.

* Used in ''[[Assassin's Creed II (Video Game)|Assassin's Creed II]]'', which repeats its [[Assassin's Creed (Video Game)|predecessor's]] habit of giving each assassination target a [[Kick the Dog]] moment just to reassure you it's okay to kill them.

* ''[[No More Heroes]]'': At the end of the game, Travis (a very ''dark'' [[Anti Hero]], borderline [[Villain Protagonist]] {{spoiler|until [[Character Development]] kicks in towards the end and [[No More Heroes 2 Desperate Struggle|in the sequel]]}}) discovers that {{spoiler|Jeane (the [[Final Boss]], [[Names the Same|not his]] [[Morality Pet|pet cat]]), the girl he's been searching for and was once romantically involved with is [[Brother Sister Incest|his half-sister]].
