As many have mentioned, the hype is due to Sony saying it will be well-worth your PS3 purchase and the trailer that was shown at the E3 conference.
I'm surprised no one mention this, though. GG may have improved all the poorer qualities that were noticeable in the first Killzone game, fine tuning everything to balance it out. The animations and graphics were upgraded, but they may have just improved what the first game lacked in performance. If the hype of the trailer was anything, I do think that Killzone 2 may be vastly improved. After all, the PS2 is dated at the time due to what's available on the PS3 (engine resources and physics).
