Great idea & concept combined with terrible controls, graphics, & AI. I finished this game on normal in 3 days & didnt play multiplayer & maybe the game is good there but I didnt buy this for multi. This game truly needed about 6 months worth of work or more. How this game made it out of the beta testing phase is one huge mystery.

Oh the horror

This game is terrible. The controls are like wrestling with an alligator, the graphics look like something on the PS1, the story is beyond laughable, and the sound will blow out your speakers (and not in a good way). I wouldn't wish this game on my worst enemy. I just wish I could give it 0 stars. The best thing you can say for this game is that the disc might make a good frisbee. The cover art is the best part of the experience.

This game is Horrible!!!!

This game is so horrible that the company that made it had to fire an EIC for an honest review. Isn't worth $5.
PS Jeff overrated this game

Overrated

It has an interesting premise....play as the bad guys, but frankly it just isn't a good game at all. Terrible controls, repetitive, and WAY too much swearing....to the point that you get so desensitised to it, that it loses any "shock" value and just gets.....mundane.

Note---this review pertains to the single player potion as I didn't get to test multiplayer much at all.

don't get fired

Very sloppy game. Not worth playing. The graphics are not up to snuff with what Xbox 360 can do. Played one level and had to stop. Just a generic game. =( not worth even $19.95 bargain bin. I hope I don't get fired for writing this review.

A big waste of money

Kane and Lynch has terrible graphics, poor controls, a lame story, and shoddy collision detection. It is absolutley a TERRIBLE game.They simply dressed a half-baked game with plenty of F-bombs and violence, and hoped gamers wouldn't notice how bad it truly is. You should be VERY careful buying ANY game made by EIDOS (the creators of this piece of trash)as most of their games are as bad as Kane and Lynch, or dare I say worse.

How bad is it? Eidos paid tons of advertising space on the internet for this game, (which has a universal average of under 6.5 out of ten)and now bully game sites into firing their reviewers when they tell people how bad the game is. They are hoping you won't hear how bad this game really is.

Amazon has TONS of GREAT 360 and PS3 games, many that just came out this very month.If you want yourself or a loved one to enjoy the holiday season, buy them one of these better games, and not the HORRIBLE,LAZY, and CRAPPY Kane and Lynch.

Lame, ugly game

This game was just ugly. Ugly story, game mechanics, and dialog. Rent it if you have to. Not worth buying.

Supremely disappointing

I was looking forward to Kane & Lynch: Dead Men; an action game where you play as a mercenary and a psychopath, who team up. The concept sounds cool, but the game is sadly an ultimate failure. The cool concept gets killed thanks to some unbelievably bad controls, even more unbelievably bad AI, a surprisingly lame story, and so many utterances of the F-word to make the game seem gritty that a majority of the story and dialogue just comes off as laughable. If you manage to get passed what I just mentioned, you'll find some mindless gunplay to be had, along with some interesting twists on the multiplayer modes (even though there is no online co-op mode), but whether or not you get that far into the game is another story. Let it also be said that Kane & Lynch isn't as bad as many of the reviews here make it out to be, and while the graphics aren't anything to write home about, they're not terrible either. All in all, Kane & Lynch: Dead Men may be worth a glimpse at best, but other than that, this can be easily avoided.

A very poor release

This game made it back to the shop in record time. Really annoying dialogue, extended cut scenes which could not be escaped from. Poor controls and poor enemy AI - the list goes on. To be fair I should mention I played in co-op mode but that was a huge selling point for me so I thinks it's OK to judge it on that.

In short not worth getting. Maybe my expectations were too high after playing Resistance but this game really should not have made it to release.

Extremely Disappointed

I have been hyped up about getting this game. I bought it and was extremely disappointed. The graphics are less than admirable. The guns don't sound like guns. The acting is cheesy, and the story line was boring. This game is nothing like Hitman. My advice: make more Hitman games because unlike this game, they rock.
