Unreal was certainly a notable milestone for the PC demoscene. This is not a random demo from a random group. It is an influential demo from the most influential group involved in the early PC demoscene. It is true that influential albums and even singles are afforded their own pages on Knowledge.

separate and expand the article. Unreal and second reality have their own history and how they spun the demoscene into a mainstream phenomena. Demos are central to the history of the proliferation of 3D computing also, as worthy of individual articles as race horses, football players, and music

Demo articles are a rarity and they're not flooding over Knowledge either. This demo is a milestone (if not the starting point) for the PC demoscene - as the article (now) says, it's been a first time for many things to be done on the PC, thus IMHO it belongs here. //

You dont merge albums and singles to artists either). There's a lot of information I could add to the articles I just couldnt get around it. // 333: 17: 332:, per Gargaj. It appears that this demo is widely identified as helping launch the demoscene on the IBM PC platform. 78:
lists many demos, 3 of which have articles. Unreal also apparently won an award ("1st at Assembly 92"). I would say
357:, un-notable is an interesting judgment. This demo was one of or the starter for the demoscene on the PC platform. -- 413: 36: 412:

Being someone who's been doing demos for years, I find "demo: un-notable" highly offending. //
