And the mass population again gives me reason to hate them.

Did anyone even see the marketing campaigns for the first game? It had the same rock n' roll music and crazy fighting sequences as the sequel's commercials have. PoP has been advertised that way to begin with, and PoP2 really doesn't have a whole lot more commercials or other advertisements either.

I mean come on, its the sequel to a very critically acclaimed video game, did you expect it to sell badly? And you people still fail to realize that it is a good game. If it was a crap game and it sold well, then I could see the "badass" theme as the main cause for high sales.
