2. Killed by hacker
3. Finding out your PC can't run a game you just bought
4. Dying when you haven't saved
5. Accidentally hitting "yes" when an NPC asks you if you need them to repeat entire explanation

Yours?

Max Payne 2 was the worst for me when it came to "Dying when you haven't saved" option.

I thought it would auto-save or have checkpoints like the first game but instead you have to manually save every time. Ended up loosing 1-2 hours worth of progress the first couple of times it happened with me.

1. Dying when you haven't saved
2. Having to backtrack for hours because you missed an item or key somewhere
3. Escort missions
4. Fetch quests
5. Dying because of a bug or glitch

Escort missions
Dying when you haven't saved
Encountering a shiny Pokemon and failing to catch it
Screwing yourself over by saving your game at a bad time

[DaveBrawl]

Dying when you haven't saved or games with not enough checkpoints/checkpoints not before a critical moment
Escort missions
Trailing missions
Glitchy/Cheap AI

Racing missions in any game
Dying without saving
Having to listen to this enormously drawn out opening dialogue on your 10th playthrough.
Escort Missions

Accidentally moving the story forward prematurely, cutting off incomplete quests.

Oh, no one has mentioned this yet and I am a little surprised as it slipped my mind as well, but the game freezing and you having to completely reset.
