Certain particularly engrossing video games can give me a similar feeling but for a different reason, and I guess it's because I never wanted it to end like OP said. I connect with characters more in games, so when I wrap up a wonderful tale with great characters like Ni No Kuni or something I'll feel kind of depressed for a couple days usually.
That's what I loved about Mass Effect. I had all three games to play back-to-back-to-back. Every time I beat one game I had an entire new one to play that directly connected to the one before it, and by the time I got to the end of 3 it had been long enough that I wanted to play the first one again, restarting the entire cycle. I did that for several months last year.
