Game thoughts
Finished Kane & Lynch the other night, a few non-spoiler thoughts.
1 OK shooter, nothing revolutionary about game play.
2 Don`t be fooled by box art, graphics not that great. (Xbox 360)
3 By the third mission I wanted to shoot Lynch myself, and often did, as
when hiding behind some cover he has an irritating habit of getting in front of
you. This will piss him off, and later in the game he will not give you any ammo, touchy bitch.
4 Mucho adult language, F-bombs aplenty.
5 No in game saves. This becomes an issue if there is a cut-scene and then player gets wacked, game replays the cut-scene over, and over. Can skip vid
by pressing X but in places a pain in the ass.
6 Vary strange difficulty curve. Played on second of three difficulty levels,
get`n along nicely and bang it`s like impossible to do this mission.( this is where you want to gouge your eyes out if you see that friggen cut-scene again.) Went on line for a little help on this and found an army of players with the same problem.
OK a mini-spoiler
Sorry have not figured out how to do the spoiler blackout thing.
It`s mission 7 with the fucking construction truck, Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
hint: there is no secret key to this, you just got to gut it out.
7 There are 2 possable endings , I found both rather unsatisfactory.
A little like BioShock , maybe thats just me.
All in all a decent renter, but not one for the ages.
