I got that same demo disc in the mail over weekend, but I haven't had a chance to play it yet.
And about POP2, I agree that it sucks about the whole lame dark theme that they chose to use this time around, as well as the emphasis on combat. Because of that I won't be buying the game anytime soon. I loved the first one, but mostly for the platforming and wonderful ICO-ish atmosphere. The sequel basically takes that away, trying to make it appeal to a larger audience which means that there has to be immature darkness and heavy metal.
Ugh.
