    No, Return to Castle Wolfenstein started the FPS genre.

    Doom is a silly boring game at any rate.

        A signficant problem with FPS is the lack of the field of vision. A normal human has a 170° field of vision because we have peripheral vision. In a FPS you have what, a 30° field? Certainly no wider than 50°.

          That is a fair point UR, but that problem is not unique to FPS by any means.

            Looks like Mario is starting to pull away with it!

            Long live the victory over bad FPS games! Long live Mario!

              I will drive a tank in the streets to defend my Doom.

                    Mario is a nice'n'cute, but let's face it: a mediocre game. All platform games are mediocre, they don't have any excitment, they don't have any tactics, and their replayability? Gimme a break...

                        That's why I changed it... everyone (except for Finns, who realised the whole name as a clever pun) always called me Tumosomething... And now evil communist Mario is leading again, with 3 votes! Your vote counts, GO SAVE DOOM (yes, even if it requires registering, you lazy bums)! We don't get any chances for recount aftermath, and poll closes tomorrow...

                              You do realize that SMB3 is actually the older of the two, don't you?

                                Registered and voted for Mario. Doom's a good game, but there's no way I'll let a disembodied ice-skating space marine triumph over the plumber.
