    I can’t think of anything that really competes overall. It could be argued games like Pong, Pac-Man, Quake, Half-Life, WoW, ect. all were pivotal points in gaming, but I don’t think anything has had as direct and widespread influence as Doom.

      I’d say Wolfenstein 3D is right there. Without Wolfenstein there wouldn’t be Doom.
