Same ramming an opponents head against the floor, really get your juices flowing
Scoring the winning goal in overtime with a screamer. The rush of getting a through pass that leaves you alone in front of the goalie. A well timed volley.
A loud scream from behind you in one of Condemned's dark corridors. (For all the things the game had wrong, atmosphere was not one of them)
Hearing the Butcher say "fresh meat!" for the first time in Diablo, entering his room to find out the horror inside.
Unleashing hell upon your foes with a Carrier squad in StarCraft.
Standing next to your opponent in any fighting game at an arcade.

Yeah, that remains me of basically any good NHL game, where after a long drought you get the only goal of the game and they play that freight train horn. It's hard not to yell out when that happens.
Nanako's death. It's not expected, and it's not in a fanciful situation. It's a cold hospital room with a single father, crushed in an instant.

Tell me to get back to rewriting this site so it's not horrible on mobileRE5 online. Finally getting into a game, only to be playing as Sheva for the first time. Pretty damn disorientating.
On a more positive point, FA Cup third round. 4-4. Many moments of fist pumping in frustration and exhileration, oh and the penalty shoot out? 11-9 or something.
Oh yeah, chasing someone in GTA in a car and ramming into them at full speed, then wedging them against a wall with your burning car, then running away before it explodes and kills you and them.
Then running from the cops like hell.
I do this a lot.
Mirror's Edge is a good one two. I found it hard not to hold my breath through most of the roof-top chases.

On that same vein, the bridge puzzle at Highway 17 gave me sweaty palms and queasiness. Totally nailed the sense of height there.

Were they short chases or are you a champion free diver?

With the roof top chases I actaully did pretty well once I got a quarter into the game. It was the inodrr levels I had the most trouble with (where they cramp Faith's abilities).
We'll use this definition:
"Having to do with the response of the body as opposed to the intellect"
- Last time for me was Yakuza 3. When I'm in a brawl in Yakuza 3 and I use a prop, like a neon sign, or bicycle or crate, and bring it down on some dude with a level of finesse (you control how it is done once you master the combos) I get a feeling in the middle of my chest, much like a fast and deep inhalation of air.
