PC because of the mouse and keyboard support.

What about the Doom 3 Collector's Edition for Xbox? It has both Doom 1 & 2 on it, and they play quite nicely.

I'd throw XBLA up there too as an option.

I've always preferred Doom on the PC, though I have played it a few times on my Xbox (via Doom 3). Actually, I grew bored of Doom 3 rather quickly, and was relieved that I bought the Collector's Edition that included the older games. I keep it around for this and nothing else, even though I haven't played it in years.

PC obviously.

But PS1 offers a much more atmospheric and creepy Doom experience, thanks to all the music being replaced with really nice ambiance. And the GBA version of Doom 1, not Doom 2, is very solid and handles so nice with the triggers.

Yeah 32X, with it's border and lack of a bunch of levels and monsters. oh oh and don't forget the bad sound.

The only way to deactivate the ray beam and fight back the vampire alien threat is with a complicated series of foot patterns on the device's control board that looks remarkably like a DDR pad. We will all praise this man for saving our lives and buy him a mountain of stuffed animals.

Doom in PC (DOS), windows port is not good... curiously Wolfenstein 3D in Jaguar is very cool. Perhaps the best version.
