Kane & Lynch: Dead Men

Kane & Lynch is a story about two men who both are punished to the death. They meet in a prison van on their way to the execution, there is an ambushed and they get rescued. Kane's way back crew "The7" get's in touch with him, they have is wife and daughter and if He doesn't play along...they will both die.

Kane & Lynch is a thrilling but "VERY" violent action game. Just that you have the opportunity to shoot innocent people is frightening but it's nothing i haven't seen before in a game. The game's story is very well written, the gameplay the other end is nothing special. Just shoot your way out in every map. The game isn't that fun Singleplayer but it's very fun in Co-op mode.

CO-OP The CO-OP mode is meant to be played on console in split screen, but it can be played in PC as well but you need some sort of XBOX Gamepad, i spent 300 Swedish KR on it, which is probably 40 dollars. And it was worth it i guess. It's very fun to play with a friend if you are bored.

Graphics Really impressive on this point. I was surprised how well designed the whole game was. It's not crysis but the physics in the game is close to unbelievable. But the fact that the graphics changes from lousy to SUPER in different places is just dumb, hope it gets fixed in the upcoming patch.

Multiplayer This part i haven't tried out yet though. But the Multiplayer part is called "Fragile Alliance". You and a friend or more is about to make a robbery, there is about 4 different maps to play on, where a bank is included. The goal is simply just to get your hands on much loot as possible. The loots will be shared at the end of the game, however there is a way to get away with this, if you become a "TRAITOR" you will get your money and don't have to share it with anyone. To become a traitor you just simply kill one or more of your team-mates. However if one or another team-mate finds out you are a traitor before you get time to kill them. They have a goal to kill you and will get extra score for it. If you get killed you will respawn as a SWAT , Police or security Guard. Although i haven't played this mode by myself these facts are just from gameplays and text.

As it looked before

When the news about Kane & Lynch first was released i expected something completely different, but who doesn't the game looked a hell lot of better on pictures but what game doesn't.

I'm giving this game an kind of weak 8/10. This game has a good story and all but it's feels to simple, just go around and killing people on every single mission, nothing else for a change. There is no mission in this game where you have to kill, kill and KILL. The game is very violent & has lots of gore in it. The gameplay is pretty rude itself, feels like you are in a Tarantino picture. So if you are sensitive for violent this isn't the game you should play, well if you haven't sorted that out already with the facts that the game is called "Kane & Lynch (DEAD MEN).

8/10 Not what i expected but it was still a decent shooter game.

A man on death row is busted out of his prison transport and is thrust into a violent game of do or die. That man is Kane, his newly-appointed partner is Lynch. They are both class-A scumbags, and they have to work together despite the fact that there's no love or mutual respect for each other. What follows is a strictly linear traipse through many different environments ranging from bank vaults to Japanese night clubs. You'll kill many people and pick up lots of different guns...but how much fun will you have (if you pardon the macabre use of the world "fun")?

The answer is some, but not as much as you'd like. The weapons are all pretty much the same with a terrible targeting system. Precision targeting is almost non-existent in this game and hit detection is all over the place. The ability to take cover behind walls, pillars, etc. is very faulty and works only half the time. Some scenes are also too dark to make out what's going on.

There's plenty of swearing, and the voice acting is quite good. Jesper Kyd's gloomy score sets the tone perfectly. This is not an upbeat, cheery game. It's about ugly violence and grim revenge. For this reason alone very much earns its 18/M-rating. The presentation of this violence however is not that graphic, literally. The graphics are of PS2 quality. They may be in 1080p high-def but they look real bad.

I hear a sequel is in the works. More freedom to roam and an ability to upgrade Kane and Lynch as characters would be a welcome addition. Better graphics would be appreciated too. Above all, the guns and targeting need to be improved. Kane & Lynch makes for a decent bargain bin game, but don't pay top dollar for it.

Graphics C Sound B+ Gameplay C+ Lasting Appeal C

i just bought this game this morning, i was very happy of what i bought i thought to myself this was worth my money i can see why they want to make a movie out of this a very good story, very good plot line, very good characters i just freaking love

for the people who like hit-man

they need to try something more freestyle, pounding action in Kane and lynch dead men

i recommend you buy it

also there is great multiplayer contents and the co op is very good

i think its worth your money guys

10/10

Kane and Lynch is such a weird game, It's not fun, but it's so interesting that I had to finish it.

Gameplay wise it is a sequel to freedom fighter. The squad mechanics are there but it legs dept. The guns sound powerful and they hurts powerful but the animation when you hit the enemy feels weak. The game does have very nice destruction mechanics so it feels satisfying when you leave a combat area.

The game sound good. It has powerful effects that makes it so I don't want to listen to anything in the background and the constant dialogue, keeps thing interesting and the music is good.

The UI is so clean, it doesn't want to obscure the image, so much of the game the only UI, is a single dot on the screen.

The characters and story is so weird to me. It feels like a really unlikable crime movie,which I can get behind. It's remind me of the Danish gangster film Pusher, where the main character is just desperately clinging for straws to keep him above water and he has to betray every person, and all the trust he has built.

The voice acting is so good it really hits that crime film vibe. Especially kane's voice actor, I love him and I l his also performances as BJ blazkowicz.

I did find the game entertaining but there is a drastic drop, when you stop being in cities and begin being in South America. It is insane how tedias and bad it becomes

kane and lynch is so ambitious, but it feels like there has been much cut off it. It's just not fun to play The Story is interesting but it also dies half way through and becomes horrible and the ending is complete garbage.

But it is an interesting little title and would absolutely recommend if you are into interesting bad game.

There are feature's in this game which are before their time. I completed the story mode in about a week. Most of the achievement's for this game require you to play in multiplayer. You will get a handful for single player play. I just think this game could have done with a better cover mechanic. You have to huddle right up beside a corner for cover rather than press a button to do it for you like in other game's such as 007: Blood Stone.

Given this title is probably like five dollar's by now, go and get it. It will be interesting whether there will be a part three on the next-gen console's these day's I think it would work well and I think a lot of people would like to see it.
