I shored up a lot of my nonviolent leanings in the original Splinter Cell series, as well as Deus Ex and its sequels and others of the stealth action genre. You can exploit a few glitches in the first Splinter Cell and play the entire game by killing exactly one person; Deus Ex: Human Revolution has a pacifist achievement, etc. I recently tried a D&D campaign after a long time away from tabletop RPGs and found it fairly difficult to drop into the "kill orcs, get gold" mentality. Playing an elven ranger, and knowing full well that kobolds are lawful evil, ganking one on the road still felt ... weird.
