* ''VideoGame/BionicCommando'' has the "Badds" forces with a distinct red, white, and black color scheme. [[TheGeneralissimo Generalissimo Killt]] wears a CommissarCap and johdpurs, while his {{Mook}}s wear jackboots and stahlhelms. Most of the rank and file waver between being militant assholes and being incompetent buffoons. Killt is obsessed with {{Superweapon}}s and conquest. This looks like a case of PuttingOnTheReich until you learn that its Japanese name for the NES game was "''Top Secret: The Revival of Hitler''," explaining why the game's final boss is ''blatantly'' just Hitler--the bad guys in ''Top Secret'' were basically Nazi remnants.

* ''VideoGame/StarWarsTheOldRepublic'': The Sith Empire's color palette uses a lot of blacks, dark grays, and reds, in contrast to the golds, whites, and blues of the Galactic Republic. This is exemplified by two of the default Imperial-exclusive playable races, red-skinned Sith Purebloods and Zabraks (Republic affiliated Zabraks have more natural-looking brown skin tones). And the Empire is definitely totalitarian: as the Sith Warrior PC can observe to their companion Vette if they free her, ''everyone'' in the Empire, whether slave or free, works for at least one Sith.
