R2 is better than R1 in many ways, but it is a step back in just as many, in my opinion.
I agree that it was overhyped, and I'd probably give it an 8.6 overall, only because I found the SP to be a pretty fun romp. I haven't played the MP for more than an hour.
Personally, I was never that excited about the game prior to release. The first one was decent, but not outstanding, and the Killzone 2 beta was holding my attention at the time anyway.
