I can throw out a few.

-Guncaster
-High Noon Drifter
-Golden Souls (1 and 2)
-Mayhem Mansion
-Reelism Gold
-Hedon (there's a free version, and a paid version on Steam).
-Total Chaos (this one is extremely impressive)
-Sonic Robo Blast 2 Kart (yes this is a Doom mod).
-Simons Destiny

When it comes to Doom maps, there are too many to recommend. I would suggest looking for community projects and Doom Worlds yearly Cacowards for maps. You can also look at a YT channel call ICARUSLIV3S if you want more Doom wad recommendations.

Edit: since the guy above beat me to most of the mods. I'll mention I combo of mods I like to use that make for what I think is a fun experience.

-Legendoom: adds "legendary monsters" which drop unique weapons.
-Colourful Hell: adds tons of new monsters, though it can bump up the difficulty greatly.

If you combine this with Doom RL or Lithium, you can basically turn Doom into a "looter shooter" of sorts.

If you want to take it a step further, you can download a tool called Oblige which generates Doom maps for you. (doesn't beat handcrafted maps though).

How 'bout that original Half-Life?
Good stuff
NaturalSelection
ScienceAndIndustry
RocketCrowbar

Quake.
The recent Quake 1.5 mod is awesome, it's like a totally new game.

Doom 1 and 2.
There's an endless amount of mods and level packs.

The first two DOOM games are an obvious choice, Half-Life is another one.

I'll throw Fallout 3, Fallout: New Vegas, and Fallout 4 in there as well. They have tons of great mods and all three still have active mod communities.

[Fragile Waters]

Quake
Doom franchise (especially the first two)
Half-Life franchise
Any modern Fallout game (Except 76)
