Since I'm not counting visual novels (though Tsukihime and Fate/Stay Night have a few), and I've yet to play Eternal Darkness, I guess I submit to you Tales of Symphonia, and its cliche plot of saving the land by releasing seals around the world to regenerate it...
If you want old school, think back to Ecco the Dolphin. Surely I wasn't the only one terrified of the Open Ocean level?
...and watching Colette lose her soul in the process. And then finding out that the whole thing, the entire "cliched" plot, is a complete lie.

The entire Andrew Ryan scene in bioshock, the ending of COD 4, The shopping centre in Condemned..
nice to see some remember the old days. I worked so hard to pull that damn relic from the zombie infested church. Though i would gladly give my right eye for the mech eye that was crafted for him.Griever18 said:

you convince the paranoid incarnation to merge with you, by promising to keep him safe and take care of him, after all isn't that what we all really want?
Oh! Got another one!
In the new Prince of Persia; in the end when you/Prince cut down all the trees and bring Elika back and to put the Dark God to sleep once and for all. That. Was. Amazing.
Dead Space
It was my own fault but i heard the creatures and the music start up and i went ahh shit and hid myself in the small room and was aiming my laser rifle out the window for em all to come lunging out but i was like hmmm where the hell are they and all i heard was tink.....tink....tink so i turned around to find this bladed arm slice my arm off.
turns out i was hiding in there spawn area :/

C'mon, everyone knows by now that the biggest shock gaming history was when Aeris died.
Dont get upset with me if you havent experienced FF7 yet, because if you havent, you have gaming issues.

one of the few times in gaming I actually jumped
mainly because the first time it happened, it was 3 am on a stormy night (literally, not being cliche) and my phone just vibrated indicating a message, my attention went to the phone as I...
and then...
yeah.
EDIT: just remembered what was probably the biggest shocker to me in a video game...
Starcraft, original terran campaign.. When one of the Marines walked up to a security-console (in-game cutscene) and realized, in utmost dismay, he... didnt...

WHERE THE "ANY KEY" WAS
Id say as far as plot twists, I liked an old game's twist...
In Obsidian, you dive into the computer to see where it took its creator, whom it worships like a god...then it tells you that its creator was no longer needed. Doesnt sound like much here, but the presentation was fantastic and so was the (short) game.

In bioshock, when i was rummaging through a cupboard and when i turned around there was a surgeon splicer standing right there, luckily i was armed with a shotgun so a shot him by reflex
I wasn't a big fan ( still not really ) of CoD4 but it deserves all the credit it gets for the bit after you get into the helicopter, was like 'pheew everythings fine *boom* OH SH-' then being made to slowly crawl around in the wake of a nuke detonation with all the creepy stuff playing in your head - was like something out of F.E.A.R. My face dropped though - I actually thought I had failed the mission. Then theres of course the ending, I won't say anything about it but anyone who has played it knows exactly what I mean.
