@ Pristine - did you read what I wrote and not just stop?
I am saying this - you liked the demo - I didn't. That's fine to disagree. When folks are attacked for their opinions, that's a problem. I am not talking about folks who just want to bash on Killzone 2. I just thought it was ok at best. I have played other FPS demos (I'll even say 'COD2') and really wanted the game after playing it. It just didn't do it for me. I don't have a hidden agenda, I don't need a new prescription - I just don't find it revolutionary as it was hyped to be. That's it.
Yet, if you sound off, say you weren't impressed, oh, you have problems.
That's all I am saying. I am not saying folks who liked - loved the demo are insane. Comeon ...

I honestly stopped after that line at first because that was pretty offensive. I guess it was just bad wording? Seriously, like I said before, if someone is pissed because they paid $600 for a ps3 because they thought a god was making the games on it, I say it serves them right. Unrealistic expectations always lead to diappointment. People hyped killzone 2, no big deal. However, the important thing is what impression YOU conjure in your mind based on the hype. i expected a great fps with a great multiplayer that'll finally take the place of my cod4, for that, I'm happy with kz2.
If you on the other hand started to think the game gave out free diamonds or something equally ridiculous, why on earth won't you be disappointed? Hype is a mind game.
Also, the whole idea of "sony bots" not used to losing is as inaccurate as it gets. Many people who had ps2s and were sony bots last gen have wiis and/or 360s now just by inferring from personal experience and sales. In the same vein, some of the biggest ps3 fans even on this site (leo-j comes to mind) never even had ps2s. He had a GC instead so should have been used to losing? See the fallacy of that comment?
From what I've observed, the most attacks on the ps3 seem to come from:
1. people who can't afford it (mostly bitter ps2 owners)
2. people who got hyped out and purchased one thinking diamonds were inside
3. people who were lifelong xbots, nintybees who were mad that sony walked all over last two gens
4. people who already hated it but bought one so their comments on the internet could be seen as valid
