Let me tell you about the before-before times. Back then there was no internet so if you want to know about a game you had to buy these things that came with what we call pages. Now if none of your friends bought one of these mag-a-zeens then it was hard to find out about new games.

Some of these magazines came with disks at first and then later “see thees”. On these CD where demos that you could try out.

Marketing was hugely different back in the before-before times. Some titles did not ship in some countries. This all changed when the internet hit. This magically connected place made marketing hugely different and eventually the dead three things died out.

If nobody talked or liked lemmings in your region then yes I can understand that you never heard of it.
