The clicking should be normal, my launch PS2 has been making similar noises from day one and it's still functioning 100%. As said it's the heat expansion causing it.
It's literally the exact same thing as that which makes your radiators click; thermal expansion. Nothing to worry about.
I played the demo and - shock horror! - didn't like it! As much as i loved our talks years ago with Deano and neo (i think?)... Ok i'm going to get banned now.

Welcome back, lb.
I didn't like the heavenly sword demo too. But I loved the full game.
Maybe you can give a chance to the game. It's cheap now.
I liked the full game. The demo was insanely short. Though didn't we also get another demo later at some point? Or was that only Japan? Yeah, it was only Japan.
Anyway, the full game is quite interesting - maybe not a must-have-played, but if you're interested in exploring some motion controls included in a game like this, try it out. There are whole levels where you for instance get to shoot an arrow or a cannonball and then get to control the flight of that arrow or cannonball right to the target. I really liked that, along with some really beautiful environments and great storytelling. It's not a very long game, and I quit during the final battle, but I did really enjoy it all the way to that final battle.
I never managed to get the hang of the arial combat though, but that was partly because I didn't realise it was there until I'd almost completed the game in the first place.
I definitely think it is worth a play-through.
Yeah, Planet Earth is quite amazing; I knew the content was going to be great, but I was not expecting it to be a technical showcase.
Until recently with Killzone 2, I haven't played any multiplayer since SOCOM 2 back in '94-'95. Yeah, this game really excels online- beautiful environments (that get "roughed up" during play), fantastic weighty feel with nuance (since the "high precision" update), intricate level design that offers some "secret" spots for those more agile than the rest of us, team-based gameplay with excellent deep classes, great AI with those bots, sniping demonstrates a great use of Sixaxis (precision aiming), standard-setting particle effects, and an awesome flamethrower (see DLC)!
I haven't even gotten into clan play yet (only been playing a month). I do wish more public games enabled Friendly Fire.
I also really enjoyed the last MAG beta (while it lasted).
No Netflix here!
One important question i just can't get a straight answer for: What's the deal with importing games, region codes and all that? Everytime i look for info on this, i see that there is region coding for games and Bluray movies but people still import? I don't get it, how can that work?
Ta!

All PS3 games are region-free. DLC is often region-locked, though. So if you buy the US version of Little Big Planet, you'd have to buy DLC off the US store (I think, may be a bad example).
Blu-Ray is like DVD in that there is region-locking, but some discs are region-free. There are fewer regions, though. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blu-ray_Disc#Region_codes

Downloadable content.
Under a rock, i tell ya!
Ok so do explain... why on earth would they keep the discs region free, but lock downloadable content, which can be downloaded from anywhere in the world??
If anything, i'd have done the opposite? Or not at all??
