I'm pretty sure Doom will be the most popular (and my pick too), but I'll throw a shout-out to Epic Pinball; that Android table was the best one in the game anyway.

I spent a lot of time playing Raptor: Call of the Shadows, a vertically-scrolling shooter with an upgrade system.

There was also Rise of the Triad, a pretty decent Doom-clone

I actually bought the boxed version of the game on 4 separate 3.5" floppies :o

Was in a clearance bin at Toys R Us for like 5 bucks. I remember being so stoked to be able to buy all the different weapons they teased at the end of the shareware episode!
