The original NOLF is still one of my favourites. We used to play multiplayer all the time at uni in my house. No greater joy could be had than running your housemate over with a snowmobile.
It was really well scripted as well. Two nameless enemies could be standing there talking for minutes at a time about their lives at home, the company pension plan and having mouths to feed, only for you to come around the corner and blow them away. I felt quite guilty, even though in any other game you'd just plough on through and not think twice about it. Some of their exclamations were comedy gold as well, I'll never forget lines like 'Oh, I do so hate coming across a dead body', 'Bit of a sticky wicket, eh?' and 'I appear to have been shot!'. It was brilliance.
