Don't claim Killzone 2 will be sub-par without playing it.

I think the problem with many people is that they interpret "I'm really excited about this game!" as "This game will change gaming forever and sell over 10 million!"

If you scroll through my posting history, you'll see that I've probably hyped this game more than anybody else on this forum, yet the entire time all I've said was that this game plays great, looks really great, and has an addicting multiplayer experience. It's just fun. It won't reinvent the wheel. It won't become the best game ever. It won't do anything like that. But it'll be an awesome game.

And then people come in, bitching about overhype and whatnot, saying people will only be disappointed in the end. Yeah, you might be disappointed, only because you interpreted the excitement in an unrealistic way, most likely only so you could later use it as ammo against fans of a console you don't particularly like.

Nope.

This is like the seventh time this has happened. The past two weeks, the board as been swamped with threads worshipping and overhyping Killzone 2. If it wasn't happening we wouldn't have this thread because there wouldn't be people who cared so much about early opinions on the game to make a thread telling people not to have said opinions. It wouldn't be that big of a deal.

The only difference this time is that the "it wasn't hyped!" phase came early and now we have people claiming that it's not being overhyped in a discussion sandwiched between threads hyping the game.
