I'm predicting that Killzone 3 will come out Fall 2011 and will be one of the last first party megahits on the PS3 as Sony's first party devs start shifting their focus to the PS4.
I also think Resistance 3 will come out Fall 2010 to face off (and get smashed again) with Gears of War 3 and the annual CoD game.
See the trend?
Fall 2008 - Resistance 2 vs. Gears of War 2 vs. CoD: World at War
2009 - Killzone 2 vs. Halo: ODST vs. Modern Warfare 2
Fall 2010 - Resistance 3 vs. Gears of War 3 vs. next Treyarch CoD game (World at War 2?)
Fall 2011 - Killzone 3 vs. next Bungie title vs. next Infinity Ward CoD game (Modern Warfare 3?)
In hindsight, I think Sony should've pushed R2 a little harder and waited till September to release KZ2. February is not the ideal time frame to put out a triple A shooter. A September release would likely have put it head to head against Halo ODST but would give it a nice 2 month jump on the juggernaut that will be MW2. Despite the fact that Guerilla has worked on the game for 4 years, there's a lot of features missing that the extra 6 months may have allowed them to work on (Party system, matchmaking, co-op, more maps at launch, etc).
