17. Wolfenstein 3D

This was the game that laid the groundwork for first person shooters. You assume the role of a World War II Allied spy William “B.J.” Blazkowicz attempting to escape the Nazi prison of CastleWolfenstein. After the initial escape episode, Blazkowicz carries on a series of missions against the Nazis. Numerous secrets and bosses, and the ability to kill Hitler provided many a fond memory for gamers, and it would lead to id Software’s breakout smash hit, Doom.
