How many people play FPS games on Steam?

Which games count as FPS games?

Games whose Steam players voted "FPS" as one of their defining tags: among the game's five most-voted tags, with at least half as many votes as the top one. A game that merely has a few FPS votes does not count, which keeps the list to games that are FPS games, not games with a FPS moment in them.
