Most people would call DOOM a 3D game. Its popularity spelt the end of 2D games which is why people bring it up.

It doesn't matter that it's raycast with billboard sprites, it was first-person-perspective with pixel-perfect lit texture-mapped wall and floor rendering with lifts and stairs. 3D enough.
