DEMO THIS! Kane & Lynch 2 Demo Review

DEMO THIS! is my show where I download and review free demos that are available on the XBL Marketplace, PlayStation Network or Steam. Watch DEMO THIS! to find out if there are any fun demos out there and to find out if a game is worth buying.

This episode is about Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days. Does this demo have what it takes to entertain for more than 5 minutes? Will this demo make you want to run out and buy the full game? Watch this episode to find out the answers to all of these questions.

There's no reason to not review a demo. If you don't wanna know what the review says because you think it will be "dramatically" different from the final product, by all means, move on.

I, for one, don't mind at all.

Rot_in_Fail5041d ago (Edited 5041d ago )

I'd love to see people reviewing dynamic themes, and what the heck maybe even premium avatars. I'm still not sure about a few.

knight6265041d ago

i agree with blaze its stupid because its a work in progress demo...its not the full game so u cant review...if u think its not stupid then let game journalist start to review hundreds of demos and it will just be waste

Baka-akaB5041d ago (Edited 5041d ago )

because it is indeed very stupid .

Especially when some games are from a genre hard to demo (what do you demo in a rpg besides the fighting mechanics ) , when plenty games massively improves on their demo (fifa) , with demos being either sp only or multiplayer only , and many being just too short .

It's a waste of internet space .

If you're going to ask why not review demos , then let me ask you back , why not review movie and game trailers as well ?

BeaArthur5041d ago

I can't wait for the review of the box art.

bjornbear5041d ago

I want them to review the font of the game name!

I mean Helvetica is the most used ever so Its obviously the best /s

ER-AM5041d ago

What the fuck? Good job on this "review". What a fucking waste of time.

EinRobot5041d ago

0/10 save yourself some stupid and just play the demo yourself. Reviews exist to get an idea on if you want to spend money for the product. DEMOS ARE FREE! im changing my review score -4/10

I think the only type of games that can gets away with it would be sport games, having those sponsors ads on the side like on real life.

But don't put freaking Doritos ads in Star Wars or something, it breaks the immersion. If it is a pop-up ads, then big no.

EA can thoughtfully eff themselves.

EA coming back for the crown of being perceived as the worst company in gaming.

Chocoburger11h ago(Edited 11h ago)

One of my favorite series is the THPS franchise, and it was packed with ads, but it didn't bother me. Posters for skateboard companies, JEEP, and Nokia phones. It did sort of fit in with the game world, but that was the past, these days ad would be intentionally intrusive or unskippable loading screen type of imagery. Ugh, I know EA would do it in a horrible fashion. Screw them.

Report: Sexual Misconduct Investigation Conducted at EA, Suspects Named and What They Did Revealed

EA senior staff has been investigated for sexual misconduct involving female coworkers, and these said people have been named publicly.

isarai6d ago

Aye just call Phil, i mean he somehow made Bobby Kotick's scandal disappear and gave him a few million dollar high five on the way out.

Cacabunga6d ago

I wonder if it will be censored with some in game ads.

MrBaskerville4d ago (Edited 4d ago )

Microsoft did, Phil Spencer played a minor part. He instigated the buyout that led to Kotick escaping all his controversies while getting a golden handshake.

Someone on Twitter calculated that the people hired in Tango and Arkane Austin could get a decent salary for roughly 17 years for the money Kotick was paid.

InUrFoxHole3d ago

Yeah some thing tells me Kotics $ was already guaranteed before MS made the deal. As for the studios... Let's be honest here... none of those studios made system sellers.

XiNatsuDragnel6d ago (Edited 6d ago )

EA about to go down like Activision and then Phil saves the day saying.this is good for the industry and consolidation will help create competition. /s.

MrBaskerville4d ago

Then they shutdown Codemasters and studio behind Jedi Survivor.

Atleast they could hardly do much damage that EA hadn't allready done. EA has shut down most of their studios by now.

ravens526d ago

What's up with all these horny creeps. You gon be horny, fine. Just not at work take care of that shit before you go in. Rub one out if you have to. Don't be a creep at all. ESPECIALLY at work. But don't be one AT ALL.

Extermin8or3_6d ago

I mean part of the issue is that things transpired outside of work....

MrBaskerville4d ago

That's the thing he mentioned about not being a creep at all.

KwietStorm_BLM6d ago

You think deviants care where they are? Work sometimes makes it an even better situation for them because they can abuse their power.

mudakoshaka5d ago

Nerds think they are Gods when they are making video games.

NotoriousWhiz6d ago (Edited 6d ago )

"it seems that according to EA, given the events transpired outside of work between two adults, and the fact that once investigation has started that the alleged perpetrators didn’t do it again, the investigation is considered closed. [...] The victim still has to work with the people that harassed her."

Yep, EA is disgusting.

Extermin8or3_6d ago

I mean the fact stuff happened outside of work puts EA in quite a difficult position legally. These women don't seem to have reported the matter to the police which kinda ties EA's hands on what they can do. If they don't file reports of the crimes then yeah from EA's perspective it is stuff that happened outside of work. The only exception is the guy that apparently referenced things in the slack channel for work, spending on what he said proving it may be very hard and he may well be able to get away with plausible deniability. I don't like EA and I think these people need to be dismissed but without any legal action being taken, EA can't really do much without risk of being sued themselves for unfair dismissal etc.

Well, anything to make those shareholders happy, I guess. They're all that matters in this industry nowadays.

badboyz099d ago (Edited 9d ago )

EA stocks haven't been profitable in over 5yrs. They better hope Take-two don't get the FIFA license lol.
