Killzone 2 dev responds to Eight Days' hype train

In a PlayStation Forum thread titled "Ask the dev", someone decided that was optional and opted to instead make some base comments about how Eight Days' new information basically makes Killzone 2 look ridiculous and insists that all the hype surrounding the title has disappeared ... among other things. One developer took the time to craft a long, long response to the accusation and we can summarize it. Probably.

He said, more or less, "if you want to go be excited about Eight Days then be my guest." He goes on to ask "is there only allowed to be one good game at once? When it is news that a game looks better than Killzone 2, I'd say that suggests that Killzone 2 looks pretty [darn] good." He also goes on to talk about the infamous 2005 E3 trailer, claiming it was not false, rather, an idea of what they thought they'd be able to do on the PS3. Leave it to the media to screw that up, he implies. There's a lot more to the response and it's interesting to read, so go ahead and knock yourself out. If games are already being compared to Killzone 2, we'd have to say there's a reason for it.
