During a recent meeting with Eidos, GameSpot had an opportunity to spend some quality time with a pre-alpha (early work-in-progress) Xbox 360 build of Kane & Lynch. The version of the game was the same one that was shown couple of months ago, but on this occasion GameSpot was allowed to play for themselves and took in a different level.

Alex S. from Link-Cable writes: "The video game industry is a pretty cutthroat place. More often than not the cycle of a game’s life is pretty set in stone – a title is announced, hyped ,released and hopefully it’s a hit. However sometimes things don’t go as planned and a game doesn’t hit home with gamers. Not that’s it a bad game per say but due to a myriad of issues or the general mood of the world at the time the game isn’t remembered so fondly as its contemporaries. So for this week’s Top 10 we’re listing off ten titles that you should probably give a second chance to because they really are decent titles and deserve more love than they ever got."
I enjoyed Kane and Lynch. I would love to see a PS All-Stars 2 or a non-Smash take on a PlayStation fighter. Maybe a Marvel v Campcom style but with larger levels.
I’d rather Nintendo give Star Fox Assault a second chance and make another new game in that style. I like that game way better than Star Fox Adventures
The Conduit.
Just, give us a reboot of that for Switch and make it bigger and better than the original, which had potential but never got off the ground due to being on the Wii.
In addition to retaining Hitman, IO kept ownership of Freedom Fighters, a 2003 third-person shooter that appeared on sixth gen consoles and received high praise.
I played Freedom Fighter on PC when I was a kid. Damn, the game was so freaking good.
I can live with this IO. So how about that sequel, so I can forgive you already?
WOW!!!!!! I would be so hyped if Freedom Fighters returned but it's very disappointing that Kane and Lynch is still on ice because the story has so much potential. Both games also features Jesper Kyd's best work.
This is one game to look for during E3. These people (IO Interactive) have only made Freedom Fighters besides Hitman and now, this could be their future franchise and I hear the story is so good and cinematic that Hollywood is pushing it for a big screen adaptation.
this looks good, Should be a fun play. Just hope your AI teamates aren't idiots that die all the time
Im glad Eidos decided to go with the PS3 as well on this. Im so looking forward to HITMAN on the PS3!
Enemies attack you from every direction top with intelligent A.I., the sniper guns are powerful, and Lynch going out of control is enough to make this game interesting.Would you agree?
