I have more fondness for EchoedTruth's list. Deus Ex is simply righteous. And let's not forget Zelda: OoT ('98).
When it comes down to it, when I go back and play games from the past, I'm more likely to be found in 3D environments than in a Wolfenstein map editor. If I want to visit Terra & friends again, I usually watch a TAS (tool-assisted speedrun): tasvideos.org

Nice call with Zelda: OoT.. totally forgot that N64 fell in that era too.
I would safely say that 96-03 was the golden era of video games. That era was where we saw the biggest experimentation and advances in gaming (Anachronox... Fallout... again, Deus Ex), the advent of 3d allowed these guys who had big dreams to finally make big, crazy, complex games. Fast forward 10 years, and we have big, overdeveloped, oversimplified games. Money watered it down.
