RE5 demo

Anyone played it? I tried it over a friends house on his PS3. Aside from hating the controls (they're just like RE4, which is fine, but I hate the sticks on the PS controller), the game just feels like a prettier RE4, which is a little disappointing.

Still, I would like to check it out, and am considering buying a 360 in the future to play it. There's some other games I want to check out too, like the new Prince of Persia, Tales of Vesperia, the new BG&E whenever that comes out, and some others.

Thoughts? Aside from RE5, I am really curious what you guys think of PoP. I loved the SoT trilogy, but people online say the new PoP is a step backwards in the gameplay department, whcih has left many fans disappointed.

RE5, the demo felt like the game had not evolved like it needed to. RE4 was great back in its time. But now movement and aiming feels clunky. It got a major graphics upgrade and an annoying cpu co-op partner or some fun if you have a human partner. But seriously it needs better control for today. Maybe RE6 right?

I loved PoP Sands of Time, but I never got much into the one after that, and never played the third of that "trilogy". I figured they basically ruined whatever was good about it. They are pretty good these days with ruining whatever is good in sequels.
