Hold on. Didn't Killzone only get a 70 on metacritic, and sell ~750k according to vgchartz? To me, it doesn't sound like Killzone being an established franchise will be a massive advantage.

Now, I apologize if I'm simply out of the loop, but how do we know that there's massive hype for Killzone II outside of the gamers that lurk in message boards? I mean, it's not like it's an uncommon phenomenon, a game being massively hyped on the internet, only to fall flat among the wider gaming populace(sometimes even when the game is really good).

Killzone did get an mixed average (although I will not say that 70 is terrible), but the game was much more popular in Europe and the developers have said that it sold over 2 million a while ago. So, it's popular in Europe which is good for the PS3.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."
