There was some co-op ones I played on PS1. They got bad reviews, but thats because they were INSANELY hard, and I would assume almost impossible solo. But using teamwork the game was a blast, they had 2 or 3 in the series, I can't remember their names though, but those would be my 4th and 5th.

There have only been a handful of FPS that have really left a significantly favourable impression on me, even many years after playing them.

They are in order of release:

Doom
Doom II
Quake
Half Life
Half Life 2

And unfortunately that is it for me.

Everything else was too dull or flawed or just not my cup of tea.

I hope that RAGE and Half Life 3 will be able to join that list.
