* ''VideoGame/POEd'' begins with your character writing a letter to your mother, before your ship crashes on a space station filled with hostile aliens and killer robots. You spend the whole game killing enemies left and right before escaping the exploding station, and the cutscene that plays after the final stage sees you finishing the same letter.

** In the first game, Gordon goes down an ''Manga/{{Akira}}''-esque lift in "Unforseen Consequences" (the first chapter after the action starts), and then down a similar one at the beginning of "Lambda Core" (the last chapter before heading to the alien homeworld Xen). Just to reinforce it, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qUOznZqo98E "Cavern Ambience"]] sounds in both times.

* ''VideoGame/MedalOfHonorUnderground'': The first chapter takes place in occupied Paris in late 1942. After much Europe-trotting, the final chapter (not counting the SecretLevel) [[WhereItAllBegan takes you back to Paris]] just in time to take part in the Liberation of the city from German control, two years later.

The lift is closer to the middle of Unforseen Consequences.

** As a Meta example, ''Twilight Princess'' is a launch title for the Wii, while ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaSkywardSword'' is the final major release for the Wii. If one groups the Wii and Wii U together as a sort-of "extended Wii family", ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess'' was one of the first games released for the original Wii, while ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaBreathOfTheWild'' was the very last game Nintendo produced for the UsefulNotes/WiiU. Both games released on other consoles as well, with ''Twlight Princess'' releasing on the UsefulNotes/NintendoGameCube and ''Breath of the Wild'' launching on UsefulNotes/NintendoSwitch, making them serve as similar segues between console generations.

* The ''VideoGame/GalaxyAngel'' has it if the players follows Forte's route throughout the entire trilogy. One of the CGs in the first game depicts Forte sitting back-to-back with Tact, and the very last one in Eternal Lovers shows them bathing together in a hotspring, again, back-to-back with each other.
