Doom had a huge impact on the PC gaming experience, including the creation of the gaming "deathmatch", popular now in almost every fighting game. It also pioneered community-based game
modification, or MOD-making. Mods for Doom offer a completely different atmosphere and include home-brewed themes like Ghostbusters, South Park, Dragon Ball Z, and everything in between.
The graphics for Doom are pretty awesome, considering the game runs well on first and second generation 486-based machines. The sounds were standard the fare for their time: Sound Blaster compatible stereo.
