The game is really bad, they used the camera concept but it looks like 2mpx mobile camera, the best thing of the game is only 4 hours of gameplay. ;)
 
Couldn't help but post, just got in the mission where you need to fight in the chopper. And its fking awesome. Now thats what I wanted to see in k&l2 :D
 
Finished kane and lynch 2 dog days.

The game is amazing in terms of visual, gfx and style.the camera chase approach taken by io interactive was awesome.They should be praised for that.
Sound effects were good too.
But the dialogues sometimes felt a bit tiresome.

The gameplay was also good.i didnt encounter much problem with the aimings.The cover system is also quite nice.

The ai on the other hand was a bit dissatisfying.There is no head shot.Only specific guns will kill the enemy in one shot like the sniper or the shotgun.

But the game has some flaws like the story. though the story has been presented very well.but the story felt like it lacked some kind of punch as a crime thriller.Even the climax was not much satisfying.(maybe they are planning a sequel)

After sometime the game feels like you are playing l4d in third person. :D
But if you are a multiplayer or co-op fan then this game has lots to offer.there are various different
modes available.

there is also an arcade mode but i felt that it was almost not necessary as its nothing but a kind of multiplayer made with ai.It only gives a rough idea what the multiplayer will be like.

overall not a bad game.
 
I liked this game even though it was too short - They had a small story and didn't want to stretch it unnecessarily like some of the other games do.

The graphics were an eyesore at start but soon got used to it. I hated the pixelization effect when you shot someone or the naked girl running on the streets, I was glad that they had that effect in the game when Kane & Lynch roamed naked. I actually avoided running in that level because the camera zoomed out bringing lynch's ass in the picture.

Overall it was a good game, better than the original.
 
Finished the game. Overall i liked. I think the cutscenes are way short and leave you unsatisfied. The shooting is good. The AI is awesome in hard mode , better that most other games.

IINM there are headshots when you shoot an enemy at close range.The head gets censored with the pixelization when you shoot it,very cool effect but it can sometimes be eyesore.The youtube-video style camera effect is pretty cool but the constant shaking might give some a headache.This is not issue though,I switched to the steady camera mode in the in-game settings when I felt a little dizzy.

Nice game.Would have been even better if not for the premature abrupt ending,but still a fun game.
 
Heard that the campaign gameplay time is too less? Even lesser than Mafia II init? I should be done with Mafia 2 probably in 2 days' time. :D

Looking forward for this one after that.
 
My advice is to try and play it on the highest difficulty as that would prolong the session. It's quite challenging on the hard difficulty level.
 
Installed the game by 6 in the evening, played it for a straight stretch until 10, resumed by 11 after dinner and completed it just now. This could possible be the shortest game I have ever played in the history of my gaming. :ashamed:

Gameplay time is way too short. But I quited liked it especially the surveillance cam perspective. I think IO Interactive has done a pretty neat job with the level design as well. But I felt the ending was pretty abrupt - I mean both of them board the plane and BANG, starts the credit sequence. They could have ended the game with another sequence indicating both of them getting arrested or something like that. The combat approach could have been a bit refined - getting headshots was way too hard and despite hitting the AI in the head, they seem to survive - WTF! :P

But nevertheless, an awesome TP - 8/10 from me. I wish the game was slightly longer though. :P
 
And you still haven't played the first game? About time you pick it up. It's far more engaging than this game and wee bit longer too.
 
^I think I'll do that when I am done with my present backlog.

ATM I have Dead Space, Mass Effect 1, Mass Effect 2 and Red Dead Redemption. :ashamed:

I'll start with Dead Space today evening. Should be hopefully done by the weekend. :P

Remember to play at hardest difficulty.I played it in easy mode for sometime and i felt it was like "I can run faster than the zombies".Then i shifted to hardest settings and i swear to you I felt my heart skipped a beat sometimes.
 
Errm....The game is only 6 hours long and you'll complete it in one session, at least that's how I did.

WTF! You mean Dead Space as well? :O

:\

I play almost all games at the medium settings - not too easy and not too hard either. Played K&L 2 in Medium settings and that explains why the game took me a bit longer.
