I just thought of another shitty one, when you lose all of your equipment in the Fallout 3 expansion, "The Pitt". In the scripted sequence a group of normal Raiders stops you in your tracks in takes all of your gear. In normal gameplay my level 30 character would've been able to kill them 100x over. A similar thing happens when you get captured by Autumn and his men in the main campaign, after retrieving the GECK from...

In terms of awesome setbacks, I'd go with "this eye is completely blind". Unfortunately the "you've been working for the bad guy this whole time" setback has been used so much it doesn't really have an effect anymore.

Oh yeah; the chapter with the assassins anyway. Difficult fighting, then change of pace...

Oh, I meant to post this awhile ago, but now I've got a perfect thread to do it in without wasting board space. About a week ago, I was going through my Magical Attic of Lost Wonders trying to find some old photos, and I found...oooh...my old Turbografx 16. I bought it for $30 from a neighbors grandson years ago, and only ever had three games for it. Still, it's still a neat little footnote in the history of videogames I happen to...
