Very true but they have a hell of a lot more in common in that. Actually if you were to switch the games up on the platforms I doubt there would be a difference in the hype whatsoever. Actually the only difference between the two games is Killzone is part of a series... but not an established one both sales wise or critically.
But both are generic shooters that gained hype through their graphical achievements and excellent PR. Really I find it funny when people criticize one and praise the other when they are essentially the same thing. And really I'll be laughing when The Conduit doesn't get the exact same review scores as Killzone 2 because I will be the first to ask what was different haha. But that's professional reviewers for ya. That's why I've pretty much kept my thoughts of both games as generic and run of the mill til I get to play them and see if it pushes something beyond that. Otherwise they are an important game for long time users of their respective consoles but they aren't gods.
So no they've gained from this but in the future they will suffer because of it because it wasn't obtained by merit.
