25. Powerslave (Lobotomy Software)
One of the slickest first-person shooters of its time, Powerslave lets you battle evil Egyptian forces by not only using traditional handguns, but special powers such as the Ring of Ra (which shoots red fireballs) and the Sacred Manacle (which hurls bolts of lighting at your opponents). You can also improve your jumping, swimming skills and levitation skills. Sadly, it looks like we'll never get a sequel to this one.

Goldeneye is heavily overrated. Anyone that had a PC at the time knows it comes no where close to games like Quake or Halflife. Just because it was a good shooter for a console that had never seen one before doesn't mean it ranks with the big boys.
They forgot red faction and deus ex. Good list anyways.
no need for halo 2, the halo game encompasses the trilogy Painkiller wasnt that good
max payne isnt a FPS
