* ''VideoGame/CanYourPet?'' looks at first glance like a harmless little virtual pet game where you get to customize [[RidiculouslyCuteCritter an adorable baby chick]], feed it, shower it, play with it and so forth. The more you do with your pet, the more options get unlocked at the bottom of the screen, leading all the way up to the bicycle at the far right... ''It's not a bicycle at all.'' Click it and the floor drops out from under your pet, sending it falling into a black void; the bicycle icon then grows huge, flips upside-down, and reveals itself to be ''a pair of buzzsaws'' that promptly process your pet LudicrousGibs-style into a pile of chicken parts which fall down into a can labeled with whatever name you gave your pet. And all the while this obnoxious chicken song is playing. That's right, [[CrueltyIsTheOnlyOption the game tricks you into not only killing your pet]], but butchering it as well. [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking And its title is a terrible pun.]]

You mop them up as the civilians evacuate the stadium, but your wingman Chopper's aircraft is critically damaged. To prevent the injury of innocents, he stays in the stricken fighter until the stadium is cleared, aiming to eject after setting a crash course for the now-empty field. Only.... his electrical systems fail, and he goes down in flames, unable to eject. Cue a final wing of enemy aircraft flying into the area, their radio chatter proclaiming that the Wardog squadron isn't invincible after all.
