First I played Duke Nukem 3D was the sharewhare version that was included in one old game magazine. It was love at first sight! Now, almost 30 years after the release still a fun nonstop action fps, much better than a lot of modern games!
One of my fondest PC gaming memories was realizing there was a level editor that came with the game and then spending countless hours making my own (terrible) levels.
Those games also need your vote!

Freedoom
FreedoomFreedoom is a project aiming to create open content for the free and open source software Doom engine. The project distributes three IWAD files: the two single-player campaigns named Freedoom: Phase 1 and Freedoom: Phase 2, and FreeDM, which contains a collection of deathmatch levels. The project presents itself as complementary to the free and open source code of the Doom engine released by id Software in 1997 under the GNU GPL license. The content is licensed under the permissive 3-clause BSD license. It allows custom levels and other customizations designed for Doom, Doom II or Final Doom (e.g. PWAD files) to be used with Freedoom.

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword
The Legend of Zelda: Skyward SwordThe Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword is the first Zelda game created specifically with the Wii in mind. The game makes use of the Wii MotionPlus peripheral for sword fighting, with a revised Wii Remote pointing system used for targeting. Skyward Sword is structured very similar to previous Zelda games, as you travel through an overworld in search of temples to visit and once in you solve a series of puzzles before fighting a boss at the end and receive the next bit of plot. The biggest change is that the overworld is more focused on puzzles with only a handful of action.

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the PastThe Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past is a top-down action game with puzzle-solving elements similar to the original The Legend of Zelda. After the side-scrolling and RPG-like gameplay of Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, the game is a return to the top-down view and gameplay style of the first installment. It introduces major new items to the series such as the Master Sword and the concept of two different worlds, which was revisited to some extent in Ocarina of Time with two distinct time periods rather than dark and light worlds.
