Oh, I forgot Braid. I sat there for a while after the credits rolled on that one, trying to soak in what I'd just seen. I was impressed.
And my favorite game of all time (haven't played it in over a year, though) Metal Gear Solid 3 had the same effect on me. I'd have been happy if that game had ended the series. There was no place to go but down from that incredible ending. In fact, the last couple of hours of that game was without a doubt in my mind, the single most awesome gaming experience I'd ever had. Some of the stuff was scripted but everything that happened was perfect. Kojima at his absolute very best. After the credits rolled, there was nothing left to do but turn off the PS2, turn off the TV, and walk away.
