   Learn to read what he said: Doom style game engine: it displays the
walls, etc. No monsters, no real gameplay. And since it's measured in
_seconds_ per frame, I don't think it's really playable either.

   Do the math: the GS is severely underpowered compared to a 33-100Mhz
486, pentium, ppc, or anything else. Something that uses all of one
of the better chips is NOT going to port well or easily to the GS.
