I actually have to agree with those of you who mentioned Heavy Rain. I was extremely surprised when they revealed the killer, as well as The Bear trial. (I have actually played this level to death, as I was going for the Kamikaze trophy. Who thought that was a bronze trophy will die painfully.)
Although I'm no-where near a Halo fanboy, having never owned an Xbox, The ending of Combat Evolved was just plain awesome.
And yes, I got a number of strange looks from around the household after getting the Super Grav-Gun! MWAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Dance for me puppets! Dance!

One of these moments happens to be the Dead Air campaign of L4D. Specifically, it was when you're off just heading to the tanker to fuel up and get out of their when...a plane crashes right in front of you. I seriously almost got killed by a Horde of Infected while just staring at that plane as it erupted into a fireball.

Another would be my first Super Mutant Behemoth encounter in Fallout 3. I was not expecting something that big to suddenly come rushing at me while swinging a fire hydrant into my face. Bioshock's "Would you kindly...?" for sure makes the list. Finally, probably the ending of Half-Life 2:Episode 2 as well. It really caught me off-guard.

Killing the Archdemon in DA:O

In COD4 when you go to rescue that one Cobra pilot and the nuke goes off and your chopper goes down.

Alyx's dad getting killed in HL2:E2

Oh, and in Bad Company 2 when I was being charged by 3 enemy tanks(they stole one of ours)with nowhere to hide. That was funny.

L4D2. Let's just say it involved a rock concert, a guitar covered in blood, and a flaming Charger.

Final Fantasy 13, going into Gran pulse for the first time. I think anyone who played that will agree with me.
Yeah, FFXIII has definitely some nice scenes with incredible graphics. Gotta praise those Square-Enix guys on that matter.

My buddy said "Holy shit" the first time I played the Just Cause 2 demo. He noted how nice the background area looked and asked if there was any way t get to it.

He was pleasantly surprised.

Personally, Doom 3 at 3 A.M. after it came out and, I cannot stress this enough, UnCharted. The entirety of the games so far has pleasantly surprised and inspired me to work on my creative writing.

I loved the Helicopter Train level on Uncharted 2. That game was awesome. The multiplayer was a bit lackluster though.

My first chainsaw bayonetting in Gears of War... so much maniacal laughter...

Also, I would have to echo earlier sentiments with the super charged gravity gun in Half Life 2.... bwahahaha! I love rag doll physics...

My first time I was caught in artillery in BF2. I was playing it at a friend's, with his awesome sound system. It was so intense back in the day...

getting into the starcraft 2 beta
Hah, me too...

Anyway, firing an RPG at someone in GTA IV during freemode and having it miss, curve off of the road and hit another guy with a helicopter who was about to shoot me with his miniguns.
Boom!
Also MW2 game winning kill. Throwing a semtex straight up and having it barely skim the corner of a building on Skidrow and land right on a guys head...

This is a very small one, but it's very memorable to me:

One of the first sections of bioshock, you get out of an elevator, and he hear a woman singing. You follow the sound of her voice, and see her standing over a baby carriage. Of course my first instinct was "KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!" but I didn't have any fire, so I just played yankie doodle on her head with my wrench.

Right after I killed her I went "wait...was I supposed to do that? Isn't that Atlus guy looking for his wife and kid...?" So for a moment I thought I'd just fucked up the game, and then I looked down into the baby carriage and there was a revolver. The woman was singing lullabies to her gun. That made me both breath a sigh of relief, go "wtf?" and then "awesome."

It's the little things like this that made me love bioshock, the little atmospheric touches that stay with you.
Atmospheric touches? Such as "KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!"? :)
Still, bioshock was good fun. Slightly creepy at times, but still fun.

Snap!
I love walking up to an enemy sniper, drop C4 at his feet, then walk out into his line of sight, wait till he's about to shoot, then
BOOOOOM!!!!!!
