You mentioned everything there is to say. But I have one.
One point where you get maxed out with health, ammo blablablablabla before you immediately advance to the next area.

There's a scary skull on the map. BEWARE THE SKULL!
You can see a big open area with nothing in it.
Theres a long cut scene in which a major character is knocked against a wall.
You get given a huge fancy key for a door.
For some reason theres a guy selling potions standing in the middle of no where.

That happens in Metroid Prime 3, just before you drop the gargantuan super-nuclear bomb, all the pirates gleefully dive off of it most assuredly to their deaths.bob-2000 said:
Brumacks end up going lambent on you... or could you even class this as a boss fight?
You've just recieved [insert weapon/device/game mechanic here which is amazing/funny/overpowered], time to have it completely used up or made pointless for the rest of the game...
You start to feel at home, predictable enemies, large areas to work your forte, and you realize you have alot of special ammunition.(MG3 was the ultimate in this.)
Usually you can expect a boss when there are no room left to search in a dungeon... except one.
Oh, and when you need a big key to open it.

Your fighting wave upon wave of enemies and it suddenly cuts to a cutscene.(I know I've seen this before but I can't remember where.)
You grab all the items needed to get the 'special prize'(this is most common in 'collectible' platformers).
A character remarks about something not being right('I've got a bad feeling', 'Theres high energy readings on the other side of this door', 'It's quiet... too quiet...' etc., etc.)
Your about to go meet the villan of the game(Can't guarantee the villan will be the boss but 95% of the time it means a boss battle of some sort.)

I KNOW!! if i think of something more demented i won't be as scaredla-le-lu-li-lo said:
**starts thinking things** YES!! pack of mutant wolves with shark heads in a pool somewhere in mexico! lets see capcom beat that :3"... then they trapped me in a small surgery room with a semi opperated on corpse and some spider thing living in his tummy ... then i hear the regenerator sound slowly getting closer and the door opens and the glowing eyed huge freak inches his way towards me .. i'm all "eep... O_O" so i blast him and he keep regenerating still coming closer an the exit is behind him in this tiny room **dives at off button**
