reportedly, there was a decent port of doom, but Carmack didn't like the affine textures and made them port the 32x version. I would really like to see a decent port of Doom.

I think this setup would work great for CGA adventure games in general - loads of colours but also high-resolution text. Could probably get the graphics even nicer using Area5150/ANSI-from-hell type tricks

Also figured out how to get split-screen text and 16-colour graphics on a CGA card so I guess this is happening now
