GameSpot plays new levels of Kane & Lynch on PC and PS3

Last week GameSpot had an opportunity to check out both the PC and PlayStation 3 versions of Kane & Lynch: Dead Men, and they played through a couple of previously unseen campaign levels in the process:

"The PlayStation 3 version that we saw was almost indistinguishable from the Xbox 360 game that we've played previously, and although the PC version was being shown on a laptop that we very much doubt did it justice, switching between the two platforms during our session wasn't jarring at all. Our only concerns with Kane & Lynch at this point are that the auto-cover system doesn't always seem as eager as to back us up against objects as we are, and that some of the AI-controlled colleagues in the game are a little too quick to move forward when instructed to target a specific enemy when they could just as easily remain in cover."

I hope it delivers, I really like the criminal theme to it.

Kane and Lynch looks pretty bad to me. I don't know. Just never got it. Anyway, wasn't this game delayed until 08?

games4fun6052d ago

i just want to rob banks :)

xhi46052d ago

is looking extremely sexy, but my pocket will be too dry for this little baby. :(!!

I hear they are already making or in pre-production to make the film for this game, has anybody heard anything else about it?

cheers

Top 10 Games that Deserve a Second Chance

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.

Can Tekken X Street Fighter even get a first chance

FallenAngel19842188d ago

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

wonderfulmonkeyman2187d ago

I heartily agree.
Maybe even a sequel with that new walker from Star Fox Zero.[yes I know it's originally from Star Fox 2, but most of us know it from Zero because we didn't get to play SF2.]

SSj4Yagami2187d ago

More people played SF2 than SFZ thanks to SNES Mini, and emulation. Also, Star Fox Adventure > Star Fox Assault.

wonderfulmonkeyman2187d ago

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.

Unpopular af opinion: give Castlevania 64 and Deadpool a second chance

wonderfulmonkeyman2187d ago

Castlevania 64 was an amazing game for its time and I'd LOVE to see it get a proper remake or reboot.

Freedom Fighters was one of my favorite OG Xbox game

UCForce2377d ago

I played Freedom Fighter on PC when I was a kid. Damn, the game was so freaking good.

strayanalog2377d ago

I can live with this IO. So how about that sequel, so I can forgive you already?

Kyosuke_Sanada2376d ago

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.
