Half-Life 2 if it's single player you are after. A fantastic game that every honest gamer should play. And you can find it in the Orange Box with the two expansions for dirty cheap.
There's not many shooters that are worth it for the single player only. You rush them through in 8-10 hours an that's it. Halfo-Life 2 and Bioshock are exceptions, they're masterpieces. Shooters are now about multiplayer. And the game to get for an amazing multiplayer is of course Battlefield 3 (I would say Enemy Territory: Quake Wars since it's the best online shooter ever made, but the console versions were poor and you can't find players online anymore). Killzone 2 would be my second choice, I love the ultra heavy controls in that one.
