Anyone ever play Heretic? That ALMOST took over for Wolfenstein 3D on my list, but I had to give props to the granddaddy.

I didn't have this in my list, and I don't even know if it's considered a shooter, but anyone play Nightmare Creatures back in the day? That game was the motherfucking shit.

Nice, didn't see that in your OP. I loved the code that would turn you into a chicken, and then you could peck the enemies to death.
