Loved those games. There was something so pure about skiing into the other teams base and lighting them up from 30 ft in the air

Add Star Craft Brood War to this list and that is pretty solid.
I did start out with some Doom and Wolfenstein too.

Doom was the first computer game I ever played.
Then Quake 2.
Soldier of Fortune was the turning point. First game you could pick a limb or the head and blow it off. One of my favorite games of all time.
I played a lot of Rainbow 6 as well around the same time.
