Emotional in what way?
The one gaming song that gets me emotional in more ways than one is always Investigation ~ Cornered from Phoenix Wright AA.

I don't really know why, but the opening theme from Xenosaga II always gets me: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JduFvWqu4dg
It is just really evocative of a lot of feelings. There's a sense of hope throughout the whole thing as well as a feeling of longing for what is no longer present. Or something. I dunno.

Shadow of the Colossus - Swift Horse
Also, this one gave me some feels because it was like the end of a game I put 120 hours into and loved every minute of it:
Xenoblade Chronicles - Epilogue

I've never even played the game but this track is pretty damn powerful.

I going to agree and say this one as well
Because no matter how many times I see the ending, the moment this song starts is the moment the waterworks come out and just won't stop.
EDIT: Another one would be the end song from Phoenix Wright Trials and Tribulations

Is this one of those threads where we pretend sadness is the only emotion?

Because it meant that what had become my favorite game ever was over. And the end of the game has a "saying goodbye to your friends" feel that I identified with.

FFVII - Main Theme
The way this track is built is really masterful. It spends the first minute creating tension, which makes it all the sweeter when it shifts over to the warmer sound at 0:56, leading to the string crescendo at 1:27. It's just beautiful.
I linked to the orchestrated version, which I first heard when Advent Children was being teased. The effect it had on me was intense -- the sudden wave of nostalgia from playing the game mixing with my excited anticipation for the movie.
Aeris's Theme and To Zanarkand are also excellent picks.

I raise you orchestra version

3:45 is almost heartbreakening
Don't think I've ever experienced an emotional moment from a game because of the music... It's always been a secondary aspect of the experience when I'm getting sucked into the action or dramatic tension that I was engrossed in. The music fades mostly.

To The Moon - Everything's Alright
Katawa Shoujo - Painful History
Both songs are pretty much of equal value imo so can't just post one.

Invincible from World of Warcraft. For me, whenever I hear it, all the fantastic times I had playing Wrath of the Lich King come flooding back to me, and then I realise that I can never, ever revisit that except for in my memories. Then I get all emotional.
Runners-up go to Memories of the City from Persona 3 and An End Once And For All from Mass Effect 3. Both of those hit me right in the feels.

The last bit of the MGS3 theme:

Although already on here, Heaven's Divide, all Journey songs and Shadow of the Colossus songs give me the feels
Also this moment specifically in PW!

jesus christ, goosebumps. i somehow completely forgot this song. that desire to replay the MGS series sparked by Rising just hit fever pitch for me.
but i came to post this:
metal gear solid 2: theme
specifically this version of the theme. i remember the first time i heard it in the MGS2 teaser trailer, with the shot of Snake running in the rain on the tanker, FAMAS blasting away at unknown enemy forces. i wanted to stand up and cheer! that part at 2:40 where the tempo slows and the snare drum starts softly in the background. the orchestration swells with that patriotic drum march....literal chills.

The Sunlit Earth from Shadow of the Colossus gets me.
I hear the main track from The Walking Dead, "Alive Inside" when I'm alone in my apartment. DO NOT WANT!
And when it rains in San Francisco, I love listening to Halo 3 ODST, "Deference for Darkness." My absolute favorite track from the series.

Of course I also need to mention a track that makes me emotional in a nostalgic sense.
Stickerbrush Symphony from DKC2.
This really takes me back like nothing else.
