Ultima Underworld the Stygian Abyss 1992. Mann this game is so insane for a 1992 game. Like what the ****? It does it all! There's RPG elements, inventory, combat, platforming, dialogue trees, character customization and it's a 3D first person video game that predates Wolfenstein. Nowhere near as playable and as assessable. But I much prefer it. Ultima Underworld the Stygian Abyss is the reason why Bioshock exists and got PS1 port in Japan.
Daytona USA- Just imagine you're a kid in 1994 and all you know is Sonic the hedgehog for the Sega Genesis. True 3D games are a pipe-dream and then you go to the local Arcade and you see Daytona. With it's bright colors, high resolution textures, flat shaded polygons,long draw distances actual music with voices singing "DAY-E-TOONNNNNNNNNNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!" as the camera pans like you are watching live footage of a Redneck race way on NASCAR having to drive with a real steering wheel. This game was so tight. There are even a low poly pit crew to fix your car which gets damaged by the way. Look back at your Sega Genesis based on 1986 hardware at best and there is so few things to compare. This is all very expensive as one could imagine.
Shemnue- Shemnue could be a PS3 game if it where ported in HD. You can do anything in this game. Shemnue's animation was insane for the time. There is as much detail in this game as there is in real life. Open desk droors, talk to people close doors, see friends, buy stuff. This is the first game to be a AAA game. Good job.
Doom 3- While every video game in the early 2000's looked like they belonged on the Playstation 1. Doom 3 divulged from that. Doom 3 is insane. The lighting, the atmosphere, the scripted events. It's insane
Alone in the Dark- Alone in the Dark invented the 3D survival horror genre. Look at every game that came out in 1992. Just hand drawn 2D boredom then you have AITD. A full fledged 3D action adventure game by the French. Full of frights.
Unreal- Unreal is so revolutionary. While every FPS game had been dominated by Doom engines and generic blurry textures on low poly faces Unreal divulged from this through it's powerful engine. Unreal has a strong sense of immersion and atmosphere.

Corporation- Corporation did the 3D FPS RPG way before even Wolfenstein or even System Shock
