It would be very hard for me to answer this question.

The one thing I remember that brought any strong emotion into me, was an old one about an alien dog who ended up on earth, was adopted by a kid who didn't know he was alien, something like that. By the end, the dog has to leave the kid, by that time loving him like a pet would to a great owner. That scene, brought me to tears. However, I was about 7 years old back when I watched it, and much more emotional. Now, I can watch Angel Beats and not shed a single tear.

There was also an eroge, that got an anime adaptation. I think it was called AIR. I don't remember the details exactly, didn't even watch it. I read about the plot and characters on wikipedia. And just reading it almost made me cry. This feeling of what happens to them being so unfair and hopeless...

Dragon Age Origins also brought some emotions into me, but not particularly strong enough to bring me to tears or fall into despair or anything. There were scenes that had great impact, like the battle of Ostagar. That moment, when Duncan just killed the ogre that killed Cailan, walks with the last of his strength to the king's body, watches how the soldiers and Grey Wardens are slaughtered, sees the signal at the nearby tower was lit...and help never arrived, ending with him falling on top of the body of his king.

And minutes later my character and Alistair being owned by mooks thanks to Cutscene Incompetence.

There was also Red Dead Redemption, a not-really-strong but still tough emotional impact at the end. When John sends his son and wife away to escape in time, as he mans up, walks to the door, and sees the dozens of soldiers pointing their rifles at him from every angle. And then, the obvious happens.

Of course, later I got my well-deserved vengeance through a quest, which allowed me to fucking shoot all my bullets to the face of that fat-ass son-of-a-bitch. Pure Satisfaction. Sadly, I couldn't shoot his stupid/ignorant wife and brother.
