Tribes: Vengeance has a pretty good story, a definite rarity in the genre, because it's by a team with a long history of making games with good stories (Freedom Force, System Shock 2, etc)... but usually FPS stories are pretty standard. Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II is my favorite FPS ever, but it's got just a decent story, nothing special... Mysteries of the Sith isn't much better because of how disjointed it is (really four or five seperate stories that only slightly connect)... or how about Return to Castle Wolfenstein? Fun game, with a good enough story, but it wasn't much more than a mixing of a whole bunch of cliches...
