Timesplitters has time trvvel in it, but does it count since there is no game mechanics revolving around time manipulation?
The third game Timesplitters: Future Perfect does use time travel as a mechanic. There are several bits of the game where your future self gives your past self a key or useful device or weapon... and in some levels you actually team up with yourself to protect yourself! (There are some levels that have 4 versions of yourself all at the same time!) There's also a level that features time disruption grenades that cause anyone caught in the blast to go into slow motion bullettime.

Either way...I am moreso than ever intrigued by the last game on the list now.
TimeShift is quite fun, and a must-have if you like bullet time or time manipulation etc etc. It's starts off so-so (not bad but not great), but gets better when you're about an hour in.
Pro-tip: if you play on PC, rebind the controls so the mousewheel is for time powers rather than scroll weapons. Scroll up to slow time, down to reverse it, and press middle mouse to freeze it. Also, don't get it on Steam. The Steam version is unpatched, version 1.0.
Nice thing about xbox 360 version is that it had exclusive multiplayer DLC mappacks, one of them was free. Not many people play TimeShift multiplayer anymore, but there's usually one or two games active.
(Yes, I have it on both PC and 360, because the only people playing multiplayer on PC were Russians that wanted to play in nothing but one-bullet-kills mode. So I bought it for 360 for about £2, and can now play a proper deathmatch game.)
