In played order, old to new.
Goldeneye (really put fps games on the map for me, our computer couldn't run much)
Perfect Dark (one of the funnest fps games I've ever touched)
UT (first step into online fps that I remember)
Counter-strike Source (competitive online play)
Serious Sam 2 (had sooooo much fun with this game)
 
unreal tournament(original)
battlefield 1942
RTCW:ET
battlefield 2142(until EA dropped support after being pressured by BF2 fans)
counterstrike 1.5(only version i really enjoyed)

runner up would be BFBC2.

during the early days i was a hardcore RTS player so my FPS playing was pretty limited.
 
Its hard to say since some games I played a lot of multiplayer and some I only played once or twice but really enjoyed the single player. But I'll say

Command and Conquer Renegade (multiplayer is by far my number 1) still play this game and its over 10 years old now.
Goldeneye (this and Perfect Dark are really close but I played Goldeneye in multiplayer so much more)
Socom 2 (I don't think I ever even finished single player, but I played tons of multiplayer)
Fear 1 (opposite for this one, loved the single player but never could get into the multiplayer
Serious Sam 3 (had a blast playing through this, who knows if it will stand the test of time though)

Those really stand out but I also really enjoyed Halo 2, Crysis series, Modern Warfare 4, does Mechwarrior count? If so I'd probably put Mechwarrior 4 in the top 5.
 
Action! Quake 2
Counter-Strike (pre-Source)
Rainbow Six (pre-Vegas)
Unreal Tournament (kind of a tie between original and 2k4)
Operation Flashpoint / ArmA series
 
Single Player:

Half-Life 1
Half-Life 2
Crysis
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay

Multiplayer:

Team Fortress 2
Battlefield 2
Call of Duty 1
Counter Strike: Source
Battlefield 3

Overall:

Half-Life 2
Team Fortress 2
Battlefield 2
Call of Duty 1
Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay
 
Unreal Tournament
Battlefield 2
Serious Sam: The First Encounter
Serious Sam: The Second Encounter
Serious Sam 3: Before First Encounter

I was going to list UT in all five slots, but I guess that'd be a little unfair. I still play the game from time to time, though not many people play it the way I do. So I only load it up if I know someone is playing my style.

That's a hard one,FPS games have been my main passion since DOOM,which has to take the top spot. Followed by Half Life,Unreal,Return to Castle Wolfenstein,and S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

I know there are some high res textures made for UT (At least for the original textures) Believe that project is still in the works though most of the textures have been released already.
 
SP:

Chronicles of Riddick
Half Life 2
Farcry
Crysis
Medal of Honor Allied Assault

MP:

Unreal Tournament
Unreal Tournament 2004
Quake 2
Battlefield 2
Desert Combat
 
Thief 2 in first place ahead of the pack.

Runners up are Half Life, Goldeneye, BF1942. All completely epic for their day on their respective platforms.
 
In order:

CS 1.5
CS 1.6
CS: Source
Goldeneye
No fifth

I'm a little surprised I don't see more CS in these lists.
