[stuff from John Carmack about why Wolf 3D GS would suck]

I agree completely and concur with his opinions, since I know quite a bit
about both the GS and SNES.  One thing he didn't mention is that the SNES has
a hardware multiply/divide chip, in addition to the other coprocessors.  All
that kinda stacks up to make a GS version incredibly slow at best, and not
real good looking (the SNES has real 8-bit color at least).
