@starcraft: Of course Halo 3 was way more hyped than Killzone 2. It's just that the KZ2 hype is so fresh that it seems bigger now.

^^ This.

Saves me having to come up with my own reply to starcraft, as TruckOSaurus hits the nail on the head.

And yet it is simply not true.  Anyone trying to argue that the internet hype for Halo 3 is some quantum leap ahead of the internet hype for Killzone 2 is simply incorrect.

Personally, I think it's because the PS3 has so much more riding on Killzone 2 than the Xbox 360 had riding on Halo 3.

Are you serious Starcraft?

You keep going with this "KZ2 had more internet hype!"

Halo 3 had more hype in and outside of the internet. Internet =/= World. World = World, and that is where Halo 3 out-hyped Killzone 2 by a long shot.

You lose. Admit it. Be humble for a change.

Where on earth have I argued that Killzone 2 has more real world hype?  Quite the opposite.  I said Halo 3 had more and better advertising.

There is no quantitative way to prove which game had more internet hype.  But if you take a glance through the number of threads for Killzone 2 over the last 12 months (then think about the fact they have been going for nearly FOUR years), you'd be hard pressed to argue that ANY game has a substantially higher internet hype level this generation, letalone the enormous gap you seem to feel exists.
