I liked both Unreal and Quake. I preferred Quake, but I enjoyed Unreal. Lots of 1 hit deaths in Unreal though.

Medal of Honor: Allied Assault.
Still get fucking goosebumps when I hear that theme song.
Fear didn't introduce that mechanic. Max Payne 1 did .Only going for "true shooters"...
FEAR - Holds up incredibly well in graphics and gameplay. Started the "bullet time" mechanic you still see in many games today
Star Trek: Elite Force - Better than the sum of its parts, overall everything very solid and a great amount of content. Wasted days phaser-ing my way through the multiplayer.
UT2003 - Awesome mechanics and level design.
Medal of Honor, Call of Duty 1 & 2 - Twitch shooters in their purest and best form. These titles really started to incrementally suck after the first ones.

No game has ever grabbed me so thoroughly as Starsiege: Tribes. The complexity, speed, precision, and sheer joy of skiing and jump jetting was so compelling that a lot of us had vivid dreams about it for months.
This is a good video to show how you could "ski" along the ground and jet up on the "ramps" of the terrain to achieve speed and momentum.
Have not played 2k3 since it came out. What is better about than 2k4?Multiplayer - Unreal Tournament / UT 2k3 (the mod community rocked this).
Fear was okay... hrmm what else was I playing back when I was really playing FPS'? Nothing else really stands out.
Well, the thread title says "...shooter game..." which is why I included some that aren't pure FPSes or even first person period. (I was kind of being a smart-ass with the 2D side-scrollers, but technically those are shooter games too.)
Well if we're doing that then I'd probably rate ME 1,2,3 very highly. I really enjoyed the entire series. Even though I know there was a lot of hate for 3.
I enjoyed Raptor a lot which is a SHMUP.
wolfenstein 3d
Unreal Tournament (UT99)
I tried getting into Q3A but after UT (and previous Quakes) it felt way too cartoony.I like Q3A better, but I spent a TON of time in UT. Way more than any subsequent UT sequel.

F.E.A.R.: just a fun game to play, with one of the best illusions of AI.
