Kane & Lynch: Dead Men

[Dan]

I'm a big fan of the Hitman games, and this comes for the same guys so I've had my eye on it for a while. Unfortunately, the videos I've previously seen haven't impressed me much, the potential and promise were always there, but the trailers weren't living up to it, until now..

Looks quality. Plenty of action and a promising story.

Here's a great comparison between the game and the movie Heat

It's due out on the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC this fall.

 

[Calzone]

The gameplay reminds me of GTA.

 

[Lörd TH]

it looks allright but before i would spend the money on it i would want to try a demo of it

 

[The Messiah]

Pardon my ignorance but who are Kane & Lynch?

 

[Dan]

They're Dead men. : 0

 

[The Messiah]

I shall not be getting this game due to it's violent content.

 

[Charlie]

This game looks class and its because of its violent content that I will buy it.

Official release date is when?

Sounds brilliant.

 

[Dan]

A 7 on IGN.

Pretty disappointing. Let's hope Mass Effect lives up to the hype.

 

[Jesus]

I shall not be getting this game due to it's violent content.

:laugh:

Dan19, I'm looking forward to that game as well. I'll be checking it's rating on gamespot shortly.


EDIT: Gamespot = 6.0 Fair but the user score is 8.1

whens it out?anything by the makers of hitman must be worth a look

 

[BarnDoor]

Seriously are the reviewers a pack of cunts or something? My brother got this yesterday and playing in co-op its one of the best games I've ever played, its fucking brilliant.

 

[mufcsean]

I got this last week, i have completed the story mode which was rather short,i haven't played online (co-op) but it looks decent, worth a buy if you get it from Game it's only £25

 

[Jesus]

I'm liking this game! I'm on Chapter 11, that part is frustrating, :realmad:.

 

[BarnDoor]

Sequel confirmed for September. Great news indeed.

 

[Baddar]

The first was fun, but ridiculously short.

 

[mufcsean]

A sequel :dribble:

I agree baddar, was a great game but didn't last anything like long enough

 

[stottmeister]

any more news on this sequel?
