Psychonauts | Mind doors
This door is great because: It occupies the Collective Unconscious, which is basically a hub where all the levels (or Mental Worlds as they are referred to in the game) can be accessed once completed. In conclusion, you could say these doors are mental.
Portal | Aperture Science Relaxation Vault door which is a portal
This door is great because: It takes you by surprise when youre expecting the Aperture Science Relaxation Vault exit to be a regular sort of science facility door but when it appears its a portal and you can see yourself (i.e. Chell) on the opposite wall, which is actually an adjacent wall and it only appears to be opposite because of all the perspective bending portal science stuff. Either way, the door which is a portal is great.
Zombies Ate My Neighbours | Magically appearing exit door
This door is great because: If it never appeared there would be no way to access the next level. There would only be Level 1.

Rez | Doors inside a computer
This door is great because: It rotates and can only be opened by shooting it and shooting it makes a semi-rhythmical clapping sound. Its also exactly what wed expect doors inside an existentially troubled computer super network to be like.

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion | A strange door
This door is great because: It leads to the Shivering Isles through the Fringe of Madness, which leads to the Gates of Madness, which is in the Realm of Madness, a place of madness ruled by the Prince of Madness, and so on and madness blah de blah wibble and madness wibble.
