or that it was hyped.
look at assasin creed sales over 7 million or GTA4 over 10kk . good games?yes. but they deserve over 5 millions sales? after playing both they are disappointments. and in case if that true killzone 2 should outsell halo 3, if quality matters that much graphically killzone 2 it's way superior.

Quality matters, but it is not the only thing that matters. Having a multi-million install base helps. Having good advertising and a great mutliplayer formula helps. Being the best LAN console game helps. If KZ2 can get all that (except for the install base, obviously) it will still be lucky to get half of Halo 3's sales. Halo 3 is a third iteration of a great franchise. Killzone 2 is the second iteration of an untested, and previously flawed franchise. The sales of KZ2 would have to mostly be made on advertising, hype, and preferably having no story related to Killzone 1 since barely anyone played it.
