* When Zuruel eats Rei in ''{{Rebuild of Evangelion}}'' Shinji goes on one of these and proceeds to unleash a severe beat down on Zuruel in a fashion that is more at home in ''{{Gurren Lagann}}'' then Evangelion. He then uses Unit 01 as a bridge to send his soul inside Zuruel to save Rei. Even though Zuruel was pretty much ripping his soul apart Shinji didn't stop until he had pulled Rei out.

* ''Changes'' from ''TheDresdenFiles'' revolves around Harry going on one of these to rescue [[spoiler: his and Susan's daughter]]. Also the assault on [[spoiler: Winter led by Charity Carpenter]].

* Despite their child friendly look, this trope fuels practically every Mario game ever. Peach is kidnapped and Mario spends the rest of the game literally crushing or incinerating everyone that stands in his path. Usually it involves decimating the population of numerous Koopa affiliated lands or even planets and no environmental obstacle that exists can stop him. He will capture castles, bring down airships and even destroy planet sized monsters to get the job done.

* In ''{{Prototype}}'', Alex Mercer brings his game-spanning RoaringRampageOfRevenge to a screeching halt to rescue his [[MoralityPet younger sister]] when she's kidnapped by Elizabeth Greene. He stops caring about the progression of TheVirus or his fight with Blackwatch, and spends several missions doing nothing but buzzsawing through anything that stands in the way of Dana's safety. The distinction from his [[PersonOfMassDestruction usual behaviour]] is very slight but crucial.

* King Claudius from ''{{Thundercats 2011}}'' successfully attempted this when he went to resuce his friend "General Panthro". [[spoiler:Subverted rather quickly, and cruely.]]

* The "Hostile Negotiation" mission in ''GrandTheftAutoIV'' is this, with Niko laying waste to a whole building full of mooks and showing the BigBad that, "NO ONE...fucks with...[[spoiler: MY FAMILY!!!"]]
* Subverted in ''VideoGame/DukeNukemForever'' - by the time Duke finds the abducted Holsom Twins (and several other Babes), [[spoiler: they've been impregnated by alien spawn, and Duke must either put them out of their misery or do nothing and let the aliens explode out of their bodies...]] Duke [[BerserkButton does NOT take this well]].

** The Layer of the Shadow Broker DLC is all about this:

When a loved one has been kidnapped by the BigBad or his mooks, sometimes the protagonist has no time or inclination for negotiation. In this case expect them to utilise their skills, experience, determination and connections to go to any lengths in order to rescue said loved one. Without a doubt, copious amounts of violence and mayhem will ensue. Expect them to fueled either by UnstoppableRage or TranquilFury. Their drive to save their loved one will almost necessarily make them TheDeterminator. May involve a PreAssKickingOneLiner.

* The title character of ''MagicalGirlLyricalNanoha'' provides an absolutely spectacular example when Vivio is kidnapped, curb-stomping everyone that gets in between her and her daughter. [[spoiler:[[IKnowYoureInThereSomewhereFight And her daughter, too]].]]
