March 03, 2007 - When 3dfx-accelerated graphics hit the scene back in the day, it changed how we played first-person shooters forever. Here are our top 20 first-person shooters of the 3D revolution: 20) Return to Castle Wolfenstein

Developed by Gray Matter Studios

Published by Activision

Release Date: 11/20/01 If you're an older gamer, odds are you fondly remember playing the original Wolf 3D back in the day. Well, Gray Matter Studios brought the characters and setting back to life back in 2001 with id's then state-of-the art Quake III engine. Its sci-fi spun,World War 2 theme really spiced up the single player side of the game, while the real-world art style and snowy Bavarian locations helped ground it into reality. Eventually, a free expansion pack called Enemy Territory (from Splash Damage) was released, giving the game an excellent multiplayer mode, which is still popular today. A sequel to Return to Castle Wolfenstein is in the works now, although details about it are few and far between. The Test of Time: The graphics hold up well even today.

Developed by Starbreeze Studios

Published by Vivendi Games

Release Date: 12/07/04 Not everyone loved the movie starring Vin Diesel off of which the game was based, but I thought The Chronicles of Riddick was an entertaining sci-fi romp. Regardless of your opinion of Vin's acting skills, the game and movie have very little to do with each other. Originally an Xbox game, The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay made its way to the PC via an extremely well-done port job, fully taking advantage of the latest and greatest PC hardware. As far as the game itself goes, it mixed stealth, creative movement schemes and pure action (the hand-to-hand combat was particularly fun), successfully combining elements that usually don't blend well in FPS games. If you haven't played Riddick already, I highly recommend picking it up. The Test of Time: Riddick still scales well to today's hardware, so the game looks great.
