Hope you guys know what today is.

That's right.

Doom came out 15 years ago today, on December 10th, 1993.

I'm suprised (http://www.doomworld.com/php/topstory.php?id=3068) Doomworld isn't doing more for it, but hey! One of my favourite wads, (http://www.doomworld.com/idgames/?id=15496) Cold as Hell, got an update recently, and that's cause for celebration any old time!

Every time I hear Stock Sound Effect #1128 in any movie, television show, or game, I think, "Hey, that's a Doom door opening!"

Why don't we all play (http://kdizd.drdteam.org/) Knee deep in Zdoom to celebrate.

Now if only they'd do a Shores of Zdoom and an... Infernozdoom as well.

The wad looks pretty sweet, I might give it a blast when I get home tonight.

Any other wad recommendations? Any that have put some story or logical progression into the levels?

Ignore the fact that it looks like it's unfinished; it's one of the best Doom WADs out there, adding a lot of really cool features.

If it's an ongoing story you're after, might want to try:

(http://www.doomworld.com/idgames/index.php?id=12885) Barista

(http://www.doomworld.com/idgames/?id=12747) RTC-3057

(http://www.doomworld.com/idgames/index.php?id=14661) Phocas Island 2

[edit] damn Malf beat me to RTC.

Define "logical progression" for me please? Do you mean levels that seem to flow seamlessly into one another?

Well, The Sky May Be is quite simply the weirdest add-on for Doom.

Whether it's strange genius or utter crap is for you to decide.
