You do have a point.  X-Com may be more popular, and Civilization may 
outlast Doom, but from a programmers stand point Doom is quite the 
masterpiece..  It was put together brilliantly and now has a cult-like 
folowing.. Id turned the tables on the Wolf3d editing and with Doom it 
was probably one of the single most sellings points.  Thats why I 
registered, to play with the editors and PWADS.  

I do have to admit, both X-Com (back when it was UFO: Enemy Unknown) and 
Civilization are fantastic games which have hooked me with quite an 
addiction.  But even after they passed I still play DOOM.  Its the 
competition and editing that keeps you coming back for more.
