80x25 isn't so much an odd size as just a really archaic one. It was one of the original options for text mode on a lot of early computer displays. It's a relatively appropriate counterpart to using "Roguelike" ASCII graphics, since a lot of the first games of Rogue were in fact played on 80x25 screens.
Now, that being said, I certainly would prefer a 160x120 option or so...
