** Most ''ShadowTheHedgehog'' levels have this in one way or another. Central City, Westopolis, G.U.N. Fortress and [[AirborneAircraftCarrier Air Fleet]] are probably the most applicable to this trope.

* All ''MetalGear'' games feature these prominently, of course.

* The very first level in ''VideoGame/{{Psychonauts}}'', Basic Braining. You're [[JourneyToTheCenterOfTheMind in the mind of your coach]], who is obsessed with the military, and thus everything in his mind that you can see so far is war, war, war. Explosions, war-themed figments, minefields, cannons, camouflage. Even the trees are made of bullets and the rabbits are wearing soldier's helmets.

* World 2 ("Combat Island") in ''RainbowIslands''. With cute, cartoony-looking bomber planes and tanks, no less.

** ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure2'''s Prison Island portion is big on this one. Metal Harbor, Weapons Bed, Security Hall, Iron Gate, and Prison Lane all fall under this trope. The first two take place on the island's G.U.N. naval base (Sonic even climbs up an ICBM launch pad and [[CrazyAwesome hitches a ride on the missile]]); the other three are more accurately within the TheAlcatraz trope. They are in a top-secret military-level prison, [[YourMilageMayVary however...]]

* The tank parade and warships of the Dark World in ''SuperMarioBros 3''.

* Napalm Man from ''Game/MegaMan 5'' has this for the second half of his stage.

* Warcadia in ''{{Folklore}}''. Particularly noticeable since you head there directly from [[{{Arcadia}} the Faery Realm]], a [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin fairyland filled with friendly little elves, breathtaking architecture, and lots of big, green trees]]. Whereas Warcadia is filled with monsters based on soldiers and WWII-era weapons, craters, burning buildings and at least one MilitaryMashupMachine.

* World 2 in ''RainbowIslands''. With cute, cartoony-looking bomber planes and tanks, no less.
