Kane & Lynch: Dead Men

[Vilge Duin]

Are you at the part with the standoff with... Um Carlos? I can't remember their names. The two brothers. With Jenny in a courtyard.

If so, you're not supposed to move or shoot them. You know the mine your buddy carried in, right next to his dead corpse to your right?

Shoot it, cause a distraction.

[Crybaby Bunting]

Funnily enough as soon as i posted here i noticed the corpse and bomb, now upto shooting that guy on the plane. seems everytime i walk up the aisle i did or jenny dies.

Forget it just completed the game

Is this worth picking up for $60?

[LL!]

If you don't mind having a pick up and play shoot em up game then sure. If you're expecting some deep interesting story, etc. etc. avoid it like the plague.

Despite the lack of too much of a story, there's some very testing, and fun missions on here. I'd get it for $60, which I think is around £30 these days.

That better be some damn fine ass chicken because, NFS Pro Street? Ewww.

[Farmer Reil]

Pro Street is AWFUL.

Most Wanted was class, but Pro Street? Eww.

Eh. As a game, by itself, it's not terrible. The story mode is bland, boring, repetitive and 'bitty', but it's not a bad racing game once you get down to it. The car tuning and stuff is nice. But it's too... real. Instead of Most Wanted's awesome police chases and roaming around cities, racing when and where you like, Pro Street is more about circuits and 'real' races. Instead of the urban environment, you're either racing through the desert, in which case the screen is a blur of yellow, or industrialised city areas, when it's a blur of blue.

It's just not as fun as Most Wanted is.

[Captain Eo]

I actually meant Kane And Lynch, ProStreet is only $30 at my local Target.

[Farmer Reil]

Then why did you quote the post about Pro Street? ¬_¬

I dunno, never played Kane and Lynch. But if it's being heralded as Freedom Fighters 2, then it's gotta be good.

[Summers]

This game is wicked. Not too far into it, just in Havana. But it's so good.

[Kaney]

Havana is pretty much the second, or third last level >_>

[Summers]

I've only just started Havana. I gathered I was getting near the last chapters by the story arc, so I have all of Havana to do yet.

Also, online pisses me off. Too many cunts shooting you before you even leave the spawn room. What's the point?

Is this game in the same mould as GTA or The Getaway? Heard some conflicting reviews you see and im a bit torn as to whether to buy it

Well, in The Getaway didn't you have to basically follow the story/missions as they came? This is pretty much the same in the sense that once you see a cutscene, you're onto the mission and you have to follow it. Of course, there's times when you can take your time and walk around etc, but you still have to follow it pretty swiftly ...and there's no killing peds either, I don't think.

In saying that, the game could and would have been much better had it been like Scarface/GTA as far as the roaming side goes. I'd still recommend K&L though.

There is now a demo on XBL you can try out. I dunno about the PS3 version though since I haven't been able to connect in forever >_>

[The Quasi Juice]

All I heard is that Kane and Lynch feels like a game with loads of potential but is rather shitty now, it was finished too fast. Lots of bugs and glitches, but strangely enough everybody is extremely positive in this thread.

[Captain Eo]

Played the demo a bit, and for anyone to say this is the spiritual successor to Freedom Fighters didn't play the same game I did.

Freedom Fighter was extremely fun from the pick-up, this game was a pain and bore to play.The controls seem very stiff to me, maybe it's just my dislike for most TPS.
