Cod4 nuke, "NEST teams are on site and attempting to disarm"
Thank god! We're saf..oh god.

Also after that, i was crawling around after the explosion and i noticed the dead pilot we saved from the downed chopper. That was a pretty strong oh snap moment for me.

The tragedy Sonic '06 had one of the biggest "Oh Snap!" moments I've ever experienced. At the end of the game everything that happens gets erased from time and yet there are plenty of plotholes left unfulfilled.

There was also Super Mario Bros. 2 where the entire game turned out to be a dream.

It also appears that every Wario game has at least one "Oh Snap!" plot twist or event.

Thank you Mario! But our Princess is in another castle, SNAP!
^ this.

Mildly long story compared to those here, so it's shortened.
Four levels below the surface of the world. Five entered, four remain.
Finally, we reach the hall of the Daemon Lord. Quickly getting into formation, I charge forward at the beast, but fail my bull rush check to move him into a superior position for our casters.

Few minutes of fighting.

We finally slay him. As our cleric applies healing spells to us, the body shifts into dust. The room goes dark. An eerie whistling is heard. A blast knocks us all to the floor, and as we shuffle to a standing position, we see the lord of devils himself; Asmodean. (OH SCHNAP )

Our local wizard swears obscenely (which in itself was surprising, considering he was a prissy elf), and yells at us to retreat to the passage before the hall. As we rush past him, we hear him casting a spell. As we enter the passage, I turn around, and see Asmodean approaching our poor wizard. With a yell, I try to rush to his aid, but run into a Wall of Force.

The wizard smiles, calling out "Safety bless your way, my friend!". He turns to Asmodean, a grimace on his face. Holding the Staff of the Magi in front of him, he calls in a tongue foreign to mine ears. With a cry of anger he snaps the Staff over his knee.
An explosive force bursts force, billowing flame and smoke crashing about the room before us, though we were protected by the wall of force. We hear a crashing sound, and the dungeon begins to collapse around us.

The cleric, realizing the situation, cast his Divine Pilgrimage (custom spell, similar to teleport (limited)), and we are brought to the local temple of Farlanghann.

... Snap...

Note; that was from DnD

I seem to recall we had an "Oh Snap" thread awhile ago.

[Edit: However, my search-fu has failed to locate it. :p]

Man, I haven't had a good "Oh Snap" moment in gaming since Psychonauts. Well, some FFXII scenes were pretty cool, I suppose, as well as Beyond Good and Evil. BioShock's plot twist was probably the best Oh Snap in gaming history.

Resistance 2. Best ending this year.
Well short of the "you-know-who"-showing up in MGS4. EPIC EPIC EPIC! I have to play it through AGAIN, NOW!

When I got a triple kill with one shot from a 500 Tactical in RSV2
I wouldn't shut up about it for about 10 minutes.

The big event at the bottom of the Undersea Palace in Chrono Trigger broke my mind when I was younger. That sort of stuff just isn't supposed to happen in jRPGs o_O

The KotOR one was probably the biggest one in my opinion.

And if ANYONE mentions XIII, except as an example of a terrible plot twist, then I will be rather upset.

KoTOR, of course. I had to go back and watch it again to make sure it wasn't lying to me.
People who've played it know what I'm talking about.

not sure about it myself probably the end of gears 2.

also i think we all know soulja boys best "oh snap!" moment

Soulja Boy said:
...And a couple video game companies hit me up on my email because I put the email on there too. And hit me up like, "Blah, blah, blah, blah." So I was like, "Oh snaps!" So I forwarded to my management, and they forwarded to my label. And now we're doing the video game.

The second after I dismembered all of the Regenerator's limbs in Dead Space, reducing it into a limbless carcass, it started to regrow them and in seconds was up and stalking me again.....

People mentioned the discovery in Polito's office in System shock 2. That's certainly a classic.

Apart from that I'd say facing the Shoggoth in Call of Cthulu: Dark Corners of The Earth kinda takes the top spot.

Up until then the best gun you had was a revolver, and suddenly you have a battleship sized extraterrestial horror landing in front of you. Oh, and he makes you insane just by looking at him.

Every Plot Event in any MGS game.
I think it was more of an Oh snap because it was so outrageous not because it was that quality or anything else, it was more because I found them to be so fantastical and over the top that some of them were nearly comical.

Bioshock's twists got me.

Oni had one or two.

Half Life 2's cliffhanger was pretty awesome.

However, I have not ever actually said "Oh Snap!"

The moment in Persona 3 when
Shinjiro dies.
I actually didn't expect it to happen, and it left me feeling a genuine sense of loss.

Oh, and Baten Kaitos.
