* ''VideoGame/DeusExMachina'': Unusually for a video game example, this view is supported and played dead-straight by the game, [[OlderThanTheNES despite being released in 1984]]. During the fourth stage, [[PlayerCharacter The Defect]]'s evil commanding officer, Kaptain Korg, is trying to desensitize him to committing war crimes. The voice of the Fertilizing Agent from the beginning of the game interrupts his orders to argue with Korg and tell Defect -- and the player -- that killing is wrong, "even pretend killing on little screens", and that people who buy violent games for children should be locked up "'til they get well again".

* ''VideoGame/DeusEx''. Warren Spector was asked by a mainstream media member at [[UsefulNotes/ElectronicEntertainmentExpo E3]] about ''Deus Ex'' being a "murder simulator". Spector took the question seriously, telling the reporter in strict technical terms that while some puzzles in the game could be solved by neutralizing the threat, other pathways could be utilized by selecting alternate routes such as verbal deception, evasion, and so forth.
