I'm sure you asked yourself at a given moment, "which first-person shooter/action title over the entire history, "brought the genre forward" in the most notable way?" Aparently so did the editors of Gamasutra, who managed to gather important votes from the own readership of game industry professionals, since August 2006, and thus convey to the "masses" the overall anticipated winner of the Quantum Leap Award, in an iherent but most reasonably subjective fashion.
5. System Shock 2
4. Wolfenstein 3D
