I would swap Doom to Wolfestein 3D. Wolf 3D is the inspiration for the Doom (and to be honest I always liked more Wolf 3D).
I can agree with the other games. Duck Hunt can be a big influential to the genre, at least you use a gun in the game, but I think it has more influence on rail shooters genre.
About Killzone, I need to respect freedom speech, but I radically disagree.

I remember that times, when Quake cames out.. many people don't care.. even magazines.. you know why ? Try to find.. it was a DUKE NUKEM 3d time.. everyone just like more that cartoonish style of the game.. but QUAKE.. it was so dark.. so unhappy.. not everyone see, that a new generation of games came.. QUAKE really change the way of 3D games.. it was the first game with real 3D sprites.. that was something amazing.. BTW.. i would definitelly put another game on that list.. UNREAL TOURNAMENT.. :) because of the multiplayer, speed and engine, which is by todays popularity the most used engine of all time (of course.. i mean the new engine from EPIC).. :)



The more I read the "console flamewars", the more i love my dreamcast :D

halo thats a big lol


I know. There should be at least two Halo games on the list. Anything else is just silly.

 

Halo is that good. Halo 4 hasn't left my 360 since it came out.

 

Later, I'm off to go play some Spartan Ops.

2 Halo games on a list that is for the top 5 most influental first person shooters of all time?!

OH YOU! YOU SO FUNNY!

If we're talking about influential, it's either Goldeneye or Halo but not both. Other than that, I can pretty much agree. Needs Counter-Strike and Call of Duty 4, though: CS popularized team-based multiplayer, and pretty much every FPS these days copies CoD4.
