When Quake came out, I didn't have internet access. I remember trying to put together a dial-up game with my friend across the street and it was slow and laggy.

By the time I got to college, QII was where it was at, and it seemed to me that it was easier to find/join a game, and that it was much better and faster to play, even over dialup.

Maybe it's just my (mis)perception since I had little experience with multiplayer QI.

i would have to say QuakeSpy (aka now GameSpy) help revolutionize online gaming.
untill that i do remember quake being really hard to play online games.

Splinter cell wasnt really a FPS 😉

hmmm this is supatuff.

1) Half Life
2) Far Cry
3) Thief 2
4) Unreal Tournament (original or 2k4)
5) Duke3D
 
I've really only played a handful of FPS and UT was the only one that had any staying power. UT and UT2k4.
 
1. Quake1 (Best online community, the first in nearly every great mod - ctf, tf, action quake, etc)
2. Half-Life (Counter-Strike had a worse community but great competitive gameplay)
3. Doom2 (I have to list it, it really got the ball rolling and started a lot of imagination as to what was possible)
4. Enemy Territory (Free multiplayer madness that took a decent system created by RTCW and made it into an amazing multiplayer wargame experience)
5. Deus Ex1 (Single Player that many don't even bother competing with)
 
Since I am new to FPS, a little over a year, my list will contain mostly newer games.

Deus Ex
Solder of Fortune
Medal of Honor
Return to Castle Wolfenstein
Battlefield 1942

In the order I played them.
 
I'm going to choose the ones that had the most impact on me personally:

Doom
Quake
Quake II
Battlefield 1942
Unreal Tournament

In no particular order.
