As we approach the 30th anniversary of DOOM's release you'll probably be seeing more DOOM related content in the news.
Here's some DOOM pixel art from John Romero.
Here's some interesting Doom-related content.

--edit--
I'll add this for programmers... Doom's pseudo-random number generator seed is the player!

Just for the record, I may or may not have played DOOM on my employer's LAN shortly after the games release. :)

Bobby Prince did a great job of creating the sound effects for DOOM. I recognized a few of the sounds that were similar to those used in Duke Nukem 3D. Cool stuff.
And then there's that one door sound effect that's used everywhere... and that one 'whoosh' effect that's also used everywhere :D
When you're watching TV and you hear it... and you instantly come down with a sudden case of E1M1.
