I think by now, most people have, if not played, at least heard about Team Fortress 2. The long awaited sequel to the original, the game was released by Valve along with Portal and Half Life 2 (and expansions) in the Orange Box. Team Fortress 2 was the multiplayer component of the Orange Box, and featured a combination of arena style first person shooting with humor and near flawless game design. I have yet to meet someone who said they did not like playing Team Fortress 2, and this really speaks to how good of a game it is. With its extremely well designed (albeit few) maps, hilarious characters, well balanced classes, and team based goal oriented gameplay, Team Fortress 2 has consumed many hours of my time and is certainly one of my favorite, if not my all time favorite, first person shooters.
