The game, the original, when it came out was refreshing and new and 
really hit a nerve
a ton of that had to do with the dark humor (chainsaw) and the music by 
nine inch nails.
Technically the game shined with its fluid 3d but basically other games 
were way more technically advanced. But braindead action itches a nerve 
in many people and doom filled that void back then on the pc side 
perfectly, and from there it became a cultural phenomenon due to press 
reports!
Not sure whether it is worthwhile to play any of the sequels, if you 
love shooters then probably yes, if you are like my relatively annoyed 
by the endless streams of shooters since Doom which were the doom (pun 
intended) of many other more cerebral genres, then definitely not!
