I really get into games, so this may not seem like much, but was sure as hell an oh-shit moment for me.
I was doing the O Cristo Redentor Spec Op mission in MW2, on Veteran, by myself.
I'd been trying this for days, and I had finally gotten it down to 1 out of 50 guys left to kill. So I go out to search for the guy. I round a corner, and that's when I discover that the game spawns more than just 50 guys. I was immediately barraged by four trigger-happy members of the militia.
And then there was the time in Borderlands.
I was in the fight with Mothrakk, which wasn't so much hard as it was tedious. I finally kill the giant bastard, and I start picking up the metric shit-ton of loot that he drops. So I'm picking up money, when I notice a whole bunch of little red dots on my compass, that were steadily getting bigger. I turn towards them and see a veritable ARMY of Rakks flying towards me. Sure they weren't hard to kill, but it was still an OH SHIT moment.

There was that part in Saren's tower in Mass Effect (no spoilers here). When you unlock and first use Final Form in Kingdom Hearts 2. The last bit with the Brumak in Gears of War 2. Blowing up the Elephant while in Forge mode in Halo 3. The first level in the Force Unleashed. I could just go on and on...
that part in half life 2 when you do that huge jump with the air boat. it was more of a "wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee", but it was still awesome. every time i play, i'm still amazed at how much it feels like i'm actually falling.
oh, and the huge reveal scene from jak 3, when [spoilers]you figure out jak is mar and the precurssors are ottsels. freaking crazy.[/spoilers]

I guess for me was in Persona 3 Fes when I fused and made figures like Jesus (he's called messiah, but we all know who he is), Satan, God (he;s called Helel), and others and i was like, FUCK! thats cool!
ALso, when i did a combo attack for 9999 damage in that game and killed the reaper. CLASSIC!

A couple more recent ones from Mass Effect 2:
Hmm, the reaper device is transmitting our current position...wu-COLLECTOR SHIP OUT OF FUCKING NOWHERE!
The human-reaper larva...everything about it. The thing haunts my dreams.
There was this time, I was just, like, standing on a rooftop, and some guy told me I had to free my mind, and he jumped like a hundred feet to the next building, and I was all, like
The first village square sequence in Resident Evil 4. After you're done running around screaming SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT you get the sensation that you are playing something special.
In the original quake, in certain Deathmatch maps, players spawn points would start to coincide right ontop of eachother, leading to HILARIOUS "gib fountains" as the whole map started dying, spawning in the same spot, and telefrag anyone who was standing there, and then they respawn and telefrag you.
The end result is just hundreds of giblets and a crashed server.

The FIRST time i played Dead Space right in the beginning like 5 minutes in when S*** starts going down on the ishimura you know what i mean. then the second time you fight the hunter where you are in the storage room i think. it was 4 AM im hopped on Mountain Dew and im all like S*** S*** S***.
The "Deep Dive" sequences in Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2. My pants were soaked after it.
Playing with the mega gravity gun in HL2
Picking up Pokemon Leaf Green in college and remembering how awesome Pokemon was.

The part of Uncharted 2 on the train when you go into the tunnel. Gets me every time.

In the op where you have to fight 10 juggernauts in the favela. My friend and I adopted the strategy of running around the edge of the map, stopping at key moments to look back and shoot at the juggernauts (ideally) following us in our NASCAR course around the map.
So we've stopped to shoot, and I place a claymore. Suddenly, a second juggernaut comes at us from the other direction. My friend manages to distract it and it follows him away. Then my claymore goes off. The first juggernaut had arrived, it was mere feet away, and God was urging me to take cover.
So I took a few steps back and fired my thumper. He was injured, and momentarily stunned. I reloaded, just in time to stop him from firing the killing shot. By now I'm healed, but that was my last grenade. So I switch to the rocket. This time, it's obvious he's going to start shooting before I finish reloading, so I just go up and start knifing him, over and over again, until he dies. Then my friend yells for help.
I follow the map to the front, where we spawned to begin with. I find my friend crouching behind an ammo crate, the juggernaut standing on the other side. My friend is directly between me and the juggernaut. I tell my friend to get out of the way. He crouches, and I shoot my rocket at the same time. It flies inches over his head, and hits the juggernaut square in the face, sending him flying back and killing him.
We went on to complete the OP.
I nearly jizzed my pants with awesome.
