Halo 2 and Call of Duty 4.
Halo gets a bad wrap for the unbelievable morons that make-up the majority of it's community, but Halo 2 was a truly special multiplayer game.

Short but awesome campaign with lots of variation.
Tons of humor and still managing to have a decent story.
Arcade and Challenge modes to expand the single player experience (from zombie beheading to monkey electrocution).
Multiplayer consisting of co-op, 1-4 player split-screen and an online multiplayer.
About 150 playable characters.
A map maker.
The option to make your own missions in that map maker.
About 13 different multiplayer modes.
40+ weapons ranging from old western revolvers to futuristic pulse shotguns (and guns with secondary fire, damn, I love secondary fire).
Very decent soundtrack courtesy of Graeme Norgate.
Interesting graphical style that made everything ever so slightly cartoonish and gave characters in the cut-scenes very rich expressions.
There's not a single shooter out there that can mimic this awesomeness.
All very true, except the soundtrack part... "very decent"? - "Epic" is the correct descriptionArqus_Zed said:
If this is best as in most influential then I understand why the majority of the options are over a decade old.
But best as in favourite, and in no particular order (can't decide between them):
James Bond 007: Nightfire - The settings and gameplay of the levels were great and varied. The story was original and satisfying. The multiplayer was great, although there was only 1 stand-out map. I had Halo: CE too but between Nightfire and Timesplitters it sat rejectedly in a corner.
Timesplitters 2 - This needs no real explanation. I played Future Perfect too.
Shadowrun - An under appreciated gem that was a commercial failure and a frustration in the sense that while you played it you knew it could have been so much better. There was a long period of time when I played nothing else; only leaving it when a large enough party called me to Gears.
Modern Warfare 2 - No other game has kept me playing for so long. I can't deny it's a great game when I see the ~300 hours played.

BulletStorm should be considered, as it's killing in an art form.
I have to go with DOOM though. How is it possible to not like that game?
