What are you talking about it sold 2million copies,  and I really fail to believe that you doubt guerilla with sony, Sony has created some of the best games out(similar to nintendo), killzone2 looks good in everyway, if you played the first killzone you would know why it got an average rating of a 7.4 , and again its different hardware. You'll be happy to see it get editor's choice at gamespot

 

It sold 2

Killzone fell off of the charts having sold less than 450,000 copies in North America and (being a FPS) didn't sell particularly well in Japan ... This means that for it to have sold 2 Million copies it would have had to break 1 Million units in Europe alone. Certainly it isn't an impossibility but I haven't heard of a game (that isn't soccer) that has sold 2 or 3 to 1 in Europe as compared to North America.

Beyond that, I have high expectations for Battalion Wars 2 because I saw huge potential in Battalion Wars; they seem to be addressing most of the issues I had with the game while adding a lot of interesting features. Battalion Wars also sold in a similar range to Killzone in North America. Unlike Killzone 2 I don't see people hyping this game as a 5 Million selling game that will receive reviews in the 9 to 10 range; it is possible, but only a fool would assume that a game that performed in this range previously would some how "magically" have a far superior sequel.
