There are rumors popping up about this left and right.

On the one hand, I'm like, "Yay! Killzone!"

On the other, I'm worried that two years is too short a time in which to make a proper sequel.

Though Naughty Dog managed to pull it off with resounding success, but most studios aren't like Naughty Dog, and I'd much prefer something the level of Uncharted > Uncharted 2 than Modern Warfare > Modern Warfare 2.

2 years is plenty enough time to make a proper sequel. It should only really take longer than that when you're doing a generational leap.

Well, sometimes two years just isn't enough.  Look at Insomniac.  They tried to do too much with Resistance 2, and the result was a fairly unpolished product that could've been much better with only a few months more in the cooker.

Though Resistance 2 had other problems as well, like straying from the grim, almost survival horror-esque tone of the first.

And if you notice, it looks like Resistance 3 will not be released this year, something that is completely out of character for Insomniac.  Given the feedback from the second, it looks like they are straying from their usual two year dev cycle.

I think that's my biggest fear.  Another Resistance 2.

Insomniac made Tools of Destruction and Quest For Booty in between Resistance 1 and 2 though. Guerilla hasn't been been busy with anything but Killzone 3 that we know of.
