Pros:
>good framerate, no slowdowns (compare to SNES)
>decent controls, if you use a six button pad
>floor and ceiling textures (compare to SNES)
>good sound quality, no compression (compare to SNES)
>enemies animate and function at a normal speed (compare to SNES)

Cons:
>no sprite rotations (like on the SNES), so any time an enemy moves in a direction that isn't towards you, it looks weird and awkward, there's also only the forward facing rocket sprite, meaning you shoot them backwards
>this also means no infighting (booo!) or sneaking up on enemies
>the music is infamously terrible
>no big bosses or their associated levels, E2M8 is replaced with a new level where you fight some Barons, E3M8 is replaced with E2M9, the only secret level is E1M9 (compare to SNES version, where you get to fight the bosses)
>requires you own a 32X
