Hi

You can't copyright an idea. They copyrighted the works. In other words you can't make Doom, but you can use some of the ideas in the game for your own.

Many games made today include ideas from Aliens, Doom and command & conquer etc etc. Its when you start copying like for like is when you start getting into trouble.

Yeah, you cant go out and rip media or the name or nothing but your story could be similiar. (I like Doom 3 too, if thats the one you're talking about.)
