You can also try wads played by DW megawad club (check "Old threads" at the bottom of first post). There are lot of comments and reviews too.

thanks a ton will give it a check :)

Requiem and The BTSX series are my favorites. 

But I agree with Nine Inch Heels, the caco awards are also worth a look. 

I would also say that these wads can be a bit challenging. I recommend starting with D64D2 (Doom 64 for Doom 2). It is an easier wad where everything can be pistol started. Also, GZDoom is great if you are going to use mods and make the game as good looking as possible, or brutal doom. But if you want to maintain a vanilla feel I recommend PRBoom+. I use to be really apprehensive to it, but the source port has grown on me.

My last recommendation, Brutal Doom is great, but there is a whole treasure trove of great weapons mods out there to pair with Gzdoom. Check out Combine Arms and Guncaster. Really anything by Pillow Blaster if you aren't looking for a challenge. I would also check out Doom Tournament: https://forum.zdoom.org/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=60759

I know this is a lot but hope it helps WELCOME TO DOOMING!

Welcome!

DoomTheWayIDDid + Doom2TheWayIdDid are great if you liked Doom and DoomII.
