* ''VideoGame/PAYDAYTheHeist'' and ''VideoGame/PAYDAY2'': The cops just keep on sending [[ZergRush waves of police assaults]]. Common body counts after a decently-sized heist number in the hundreds, with longer ones breaking a thousand, but the police never show signs of running out of manpower. The “Clone-a-Cop Co.” ticker in the Big Bank heist might go some ways towards their endless numbers (not to mention their [[LeeroyJenkins blunt tactics]]), and the Cloaker sure acts like he keeps running into you over and over.

The Cloaker sure acts like he keeps he’s a single guy you keep running into you over and over.

* ''VideoGame/{{Palworld}}'' sends tons of law enforcers from Palpagos Islands Defense Force if you commit a crime in front of or being noticed by them.

* ''VideoGame/RedDeadRedemption'' Whenever you have a bounty on your head, there will be a posse of gunmen somewhere on the horizon. Of course, if you ''do'' massacre the first few dozen guys, [[MoneyDearBoy the bounty is going to climb into obscene territories.]]

* One of ''VideoGame/Cyberpunk2077'''s many infamous ObviousBeta elements was the fact that cops would always spawn ''very'' close to the player upon a police alert, [[BehindTheBlack usually just off-camera in an attempt to disguise the trick]]. Unfortunately, this means that cops just [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=soiy_SsgiTM pop into existence directly behind the player]].

It also occurs in large budget action movies that are basing their story on The RuleofCool rather than advice from a team of veteran police officers. In these depictions, they [[FridgeLogic don't worry about pesky real life constraints]] like a police force's budgets and the need to maintain capacity to respond to other crimes.

You're a criminal in a city who has just committed a crime. The police are on their way, but rather than run, you decide to risk a shoot-out. After all, you have a truly ludicrous number of weapons. Besides, even in a large city, surely the police won't throw more than 50 cars and a couple of helicopters at a problem before trying another strategy, will they?

A hundred cop cars, 20 helicopters, and at least 300 individual officers later, there still seems to be no end to the rampage. At this point you have to wonder whether or not the police force of this city simply has an unlimited budget.

A hundred cop cars, 20 helicopters, and at least 300 individual officers and a SWAT unit bristling with MoreDakka and an armored car later, there still seems to be no end to the rampage. At this point you have to wonder whether or not the police force of this city simply has an unlimited budget.

* Both the regular police force and the (supposedly) elite Black Ops units in ''Series/AngProbinsyano2015'' apparently have an endless supply of personnel at their disposal whom Cardo and his posse make short work of. As to how they are able to recruit new officers in a whim is quite a wonder.

A subtrope of InfiniteSupplies. SuperTrope to IFoughtTheLawAndTheLawWon. Compare to LemmingCops, where the cops show absolutely no concern for their own personal safety. SisterTrope to ClownCarGrave, the undead equivalent. Compare and contrast PoliceAreUseless.
