Man yahtzee really burnt this one!

 

[samaugsch]

I might buy this game if it came with another better game.....and some cake.....and Belgium. (all credit for that joke goes to Yahtzee)

I can't believe how hard they worked to make this game look like shit.

All they really did is take a pile of shit and then add a layer of gold paint over it.

Since September, whenever I need a good laugh I load up this review. Priceless.

Yahtzees best reviews are big name triple AAA games that blow goat balls. thank goodness the corporate mizers aren't smart enough to figure out that innovation and playtesting makes are what make good games not chest high walls.

If you type "Kane & Lynch 2" into Google video this review is the very first result.

Bet Square-Enix are happy about that.

I'm not reading 394 comments to see if it's already been said, so.


You do realise you can turn off the shaky cam, right? Also the blurry visuals.

Over in the Steam forums we've been discussing the lack of multiplayer. Everyone is "THE CAMERA SHAKES!!! arrrr!", and the response "Options, uncheck shaky cam". Three posts later, "THE CAMERA SHAKES!!!! Aarrrrr!!". So have to check.


Also, I believe the term is "stylistic", think Sin City, Watchmen, any of the wuxia films like Hero or House of Flying Daggers. Even Quentin Tarintino, very pulp. It was a nice change from the Halo clones like CoD4/5/6, Battlefield BC2, etc, ad nauseam. It wasn't Hitman by any means, but it was new and something that hadn't been tried. I'd even go so far as to say it forwards the "Games as art" argument since they did it so well. Granted, the plot was.. Well.. And the scripts.. We can agree it mostly sucked, but I maintain it has it's moments and is overall worth playing. Simply because it isn't generic.
