    Damn, you listed a ton of them already. I'll try to think of a few.

    Spoiler: show
    Finding out that Atlas was using mind control on you, using you as a pawn to take out Andrew Ryan, in hopes of claiming Rapture for his own.


    Final Fantasy Tactics: There are sooooo many of those moments I remember from my first playthrough, but I'd say the most memorable was when
    Spoiler: show
    Ramza discovers that his brother Dycedarg is actually a Lucavi, and that he's the mastermind of the plot to take over for Larg.


    Metal Gear:
    Spoiler: show
    Finding out that Big Boss is actually the leader of Final Heaven, and having to fight him at the end.


    That's all I got for now.

    You'd think that people would readily identify that a thread like this might contain spoilers.

    I wanted to say Super Mario 64, but that's just annoying rather than shocking.

    I used to think that too. It was something like it's Aeris in NA's FF7 game, but Aerith in the manual and JP's version or something, which slowly settled for Aerith by the time Kingdom Hearts came out.

    Zer0, first of all, "Whoooooooooosh"


    Second of all, the source of these comments is the fact that "Aeris" and "Aerith" are pronounced the exact same way. This also means it is the "Mark of the Weaboo" to refer to her as Aeris while typing in English.
