For me it has to be Quake. I was a bit too late for DOOM, but before then I was playing as a child on the Sega Megadrive (Sega Genesis for my US pals) and going from the Megadrive graphics and gameplay to Quake...
I think that was the first time I was absolutely addicted to a game. Like, I was pretending to delete the game and hiding it using Explorer's hide folder mode so I could secretly sneak some Quake in here and there.
Absolutely love that game.
It's still brilliant! Some people hated it because it was unbalanced, but that's just why it was so great! The way each enemy required a unique dance to defeat without taking damage is sheer perfection.
I'm just sad it never got an actual sequel :(
