    Yeah I think I have it somewhere on my old PC, must dig it out tonight. I remember collecting all of the lemmings together (tightly packed) and then exploding a few of them.:D

    All the old Lemmings games are classed as Abandonware now. Even all the Christmas editions that turned up on cover disks can be downloaded! Take a look at the Arcade/Retro Forum for links to abandonware sites;)

    I'm pretty sure I had it on the SNES, but it might've been the Sega Mega-Drive, classy game!

    Abandonware is not freeware , and doesn't mean it can be copied.

    It's one of the pita of copyright, that even when something has no commercial value and you can't purchase it legally, you can't use it in your lifetime. :mad:

    Quick google shows that Lemmings is available for the PSP
    in fact the pygnosis site points to PSP too

    SONY tend to be very open generous and understanding when it comes to copyright. To such an extent that I doubt I'll ever purchase any of their propitery hardware again.
