OK I am surprised that this hase´nt come up yet.
End of Project Overlord. How any one could do that to his own brother? It is just awful.

To be honest that scene from Homefront really didn't do much for me. I found a bit pathetic that instead of trying to make the Koreans an interesting enemy, they more or less turn them into cartoonishly evil and soulless bastards right from the get go. Personally I'd call it an emotional cheap shot.
That, plus certain parts of the final hour of Mass Effect 2 (if you've played it I think you know what I'm talking about).Simon Pettersson said:
The 'Meat House' and snuff film sections in Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines left me feeling nauseous. Not to mention Gimble... Oh god Gimble. Seeing the mutilated pictures and limbless torso was just disturbing.
Hell, I'll just go out and say all of Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines. Game certainly deserved its M rating. Damned good game too, extremely good, but bloody hell can it be sick and twisted at times.

Dead Space
The scene where Issac sees the full clip of Nicole's message. Really just...horrifying. Probably the biggest WTF?! moment in the entire game

And also the opening sequence when Rose attacks the sub...when Atlas told me to get out of the bathysphere, my reaction was, "FUCK NO! Did your accent blind you from the gutting that just took place? I mean that guy's guts are still warm on the window for Chrissake!"
That's more like it.The Apothecarry said:
Seriously, there's nothing you shouldn't have in a game. Obviously the scene from Heavy Rain takes the biscuit, but also some of the other scenes from that game. The genuine sadness they managed to get on Shelby's face was so powerful for me, really helped him be a sympathetic character.
Also, talking of horrifying, seeing Hammond killed in Dead Space. I don't know why, but I connected with him a lot, probably because he was doing things while Kendra was bitching.
Flower. Seriously. Not a single gun or zombie, nor the opportunity to teabag someone while questioning their sexuality over chat.
I keed, obviously. Honestly the only scenes to really disturb me have already been mentioned, namely Jenny's death in The Darkness and a few moments in Heavy Rain. Thanks to the fact that I didn't read any how-to's but wanted to get all the trophies I actually had to repeat the finger cutting scene, and it isn't any easier the third time. As well as that I found myself feeling kind of queasy the longer I made Ethan crawl through the glass in the Butterfly Trial, and the final decision in the Shark Trial... gah.

Saints Row 2: Red Asphalt...
You'll be forever in our hearts, Carlos. I replayed Bank Error In Your Favour countless times just so I could execute Jessica in increasingly karmic ways.
And just as a note, if Saints 3 has anything anywhere near as horrific and sad, I will cry. And it will be terrible.

Admittedly, in Portal it was genuinely unnerving and creepy to see the decrepit living space with the frantic, insane graffiti for the first time; looking back, I shouldn't have read the plot summary on Wikipedia beforehand. Whatever, it was still powerful.
Also, while I've probably seen worse, that's the best candidate I can think of right now.

There was a part in Doom 3 where a lady's skull and spine rip themselves out of her body and the skull then turns into one of the flaming skulls and it attacks you. I wasn't expecting it, it was kinda great.
