I personally believe it will be a great game, finishing up in the 80's, but much like uncharted (a previously overhyped and now overrated game), every fault of the game will be more glaringly obvious because I was told to expect a flawless experience. This happened with MGS4 aswell, but the game's faults were clearly laid out during the hype (long cutscenes is the big one, where as no one has mentioned (in hype threads) the issues with KZ2 (and previously uncharted).

There are massive amounts of threads claiming that Killzone 2 will be the "greatest gamez evahz! omgwtfbbq!", but for every thread posted there is about 20 posts withing it claiming killzone will be a huge let down with nothing, but dissapoint and mediocre reviews. While people maybe a little over excited, some people are just down right cynical claiming a games going to be junk. Play the game before you judge. Many people got hyped for GTAIV to find out it was nothing special, many of those people who were claiming that one was going to be one of the greatest games (including me) will admit it was a huge let down.

Killzone though will absolutely not be a letdown at least for multiplayer. I was lucky enough to get into the beta, and just playing a mere beta I can say that the game, will not dissapoint no matter how hyped it is. The multiplayer is as solid as a 3 foot wall of solid adamantium. Ask any person who was in the beta they will tell you exactly what I'am saying right now. Quit the nesaying, if you don't wanna get hyped don't, but don't couph up garbage if you havn't played it.

The problem with hype, is that when the game is released, expectations created by word of mouth (hype threads) as opposed to the merits of the game itself, will cause people to become "upset" (for lack of a better word) because they assumed that this game would change gaming forever, and when it didn't, they become disillusioned and judge the game more harshly then they would have if they had not been hyped into believing this game will be a masterpiece.

That's why I'm creating anti-hype in those threads (I'm one of the 20 posts you talk about), because KZ2 will be a great game, similarly to how GTA4 is a great game, but when people expect something awesome, and get something that was outside of what they defined awesome, then the game will be hated.

Obviously there are haters that just want to shoot the game down, but I'm not one of them (and I'm sure at least 5 of those "20" posts are the same).

Its just another shooter game big deal.
