Certain people can't empathize with fictional media because their brains are wired to be detached and think conceptually, so they always acknowledge the falseness of the situation and so their empathic response isn't triggered. Be glad that you don't, because it's a sign you're not easily influenced like the majority of people who are at one with their emotions.

It will only make you cry if it has meaning to you. If it's a sad scene involving a dad, I don't think it will have the same emotional impact to you as it would to someone who really cares for his father and lost him recently.

I literally shed tears anon. I couldn't stop them. I couldn't even understand why i was crying. When i've seen smash logo in eye of that squid girl i was already tearing up and burst into greatest joy tearing i've had ever when camera panned towards giant smash logo. Then i felt how those tears slowly crawl down my cheeks and neck. I even had some stuck on my glasses.

TV shows and movies are okay at making people cry.
They have that audio-visual element to it, compared to music and books.
Games also have the audio-visual element, and has the chance to have a very relateable story good enough to make people cry… but I'm sure the gameplay mechanics will be a hinder.

It is normal to be emotionally moved by media, and is a sign of empathy. To have a temperament where you cry at every little thing, or are never moved at all, are outliers but not necessarily unhealthy.

I rarely ever cry, but an easy way to make me cry is by making a character's expression of raw emotions feel real. Even if it's just a random scene with no context, if the upset character feels genuine, then it gets through to me. Games are obviously held back graphically from recreating the real nuance of such a thing, but letting my imagination fill in the blanks, like with a drawn image, can actually work a lot better.

Things only make you cry when they remind you of your own life. We're all self centered assholes who want to believe we connect with other people but the truth is we only do insomuch as they benefit our lives or ego. That guy who got shot in that movie? You didnt lose it until you remembered how much he reminds you of your dad, or brother, didnt you? That girl who lost everything, only chokes you up because you remember how fucked the relationship with your mom is.
tl;dr- we're all selfish monsters who only care about ourselves

Here are my favorites with minimal spoilers (because the twists are most often the most emotional scenes imo):
Worlds Ends with You (DS game): The end of the week fuck your shenanigans, Kitaniji-san
Silent Hill Shattered Memories (for the Wii): The ending especially the bad ones
Just watch a cinematic let's play of your choice if you don't have access to the console, the gameplay is easily the weaker part of the game

I've learned to control it and hold back to not embarass myself in public, but it is really inconvenient OP. You shouldn't want feelings.
Play Nier I guess. Maybe Red Dead Redemption. I get sad whenever I think about Deponia games, but it's not a tearjerker.

Never cried or teared up an any form od media. Sure when I finish a long book or a game, there is feeling of emptiness and longing. But I could never cry no matter the situation. Documentaries on the other hand made me tear up couple of times, because I know that actually happened to someone.
