Hi Daniel Brown: Yes ICO is pure "BLISS", no two ways about it. It has such a surreal feel and tons of grace and depth. I have played 2 levels of Ico a few months ago that go far beyond the demo, believe it or not the version I played was even better than the demo. The demo is a beginning portion of the game, very nice as you already know,but the later levels are mouth-watering. It will last you about 60 hours if played to the max with looking over all details,it's worth a purchase because of it's length and most importantly it's overall gameplay options.
Devil may cry is to me a stunner, atotally cool game. Everything any action or horror fan could want. I've played about 2 hours of a demo and am in love with it already.It is everything Resident evil is or was,and more. Free movement,non-linear gameplay,puzzles and action,action and more action,sweet as can be.Onimusha is fine but Devil may cry is on a much higher level,if you like action you will love Devil may cry.
By the way don't forget about Herdy gerdy,it's a lot more than most people think as of now,just keep it in mind,it comes out on October 26th.
Here's a link to some Maximo news and some screens and even a couple short movies. However thre game is better when in person and while playing,the screens and movies do not do it justice,I've seen it in realtime and it was much better than those screens and movies,but still it's worth a look for you.

Don't forget the actual finished product in realtime is much better than the screens and movies,although the screens and movies will give you a basic feel.
And here is a link to 5 more Devil may cry movies for your viewing pleasure,these are the most recent,and will tide you over for awhile,not too much more of a wait,just another couple months,it's getting closer and closer....
