Freedom Fighters weird sequel

Kane and Lynch is such a weird game, It's not fun, but it's so interesting that I had to finish it. Gameplay wise it is a sequel to freedom fighter. the squad mechanics are there but it legs dept. The guns sound powerful and they hurts powerful but the animation when you hit the enemy feels weak. The game does have very nice destruction mechanics so it feels satisfying when you leave a combat area. The game sound good. it has powerful effects that makes it so I don't want to listen to anything in the background and the constant dialogue, keeps thing interesting and the music is good. The UI is so clean, it doesn't want to obscure the image, so much of the game the only UI, is a single dot on the screen. The characters and story is so weird to me. It feels like a really unlikable crime movie,which I can get behind. It's remind me of the Danish gangster film Pusher, where the main character is just desperately clinging for straws to keep him above water and he has to betray every person, and all the trust he has built. the voice acting is so good it really hits that crime film vibe. Especially kane's voice actor, I love him and I l his also performances as BJ blazkowicz. I did find the game entertaining but there is a drastic drop, when you stop being in cities and begin being in South America. it is insane how tedias and bad it becomes kane and lynch is so ambitious, but it feels like there has been much cut off it. it's just not fun to play The Story is interesting but it also dies half way through and becomes horrible and the ending is complete garbage. But it is an interesting little title and would absolutely recommend if you are into interesting bad game.

Decent but somewhat interesting

First of all, i'm glad this game can finally be purshased legally and DRM-Free no less. [Actual Review] Really interesting game, not the best by any mean or capacity but interesting enough to keep you hooked through it's story. It's a well made movie-like experience with a great variety of locations and scenarios. The atmosphere feels opressive and dark at times. The Japan levels were the best in my opinion. Something strange I recalled is that the characters just go from one side of the world for another in a matter of just seconds? it helps to keep the pace of the game but come on, it feels kind of lazy. Both protagonist make a good couple, one being sane and the other being a psycho. One is selfish, the other one is loyal and so one. The best of both worlds and it works Both are deeply flawed on their own way. Why is just "Decent" then? Well, the gameplay cannot be more tedious for a shooter. The cover mechanic is not associated to a specific button for some ungodly reason and it's just does it by itself when you are close to a wall. The shooting itself feels janky to say the least, the bullets spread like crazy and you don't much options for a more precise weapon such as a rifle or sniper through the game. Sprinting is non-existential, it last less than 5 seconds if you are lucky and the sprint isn't like a huge difference from walking either. The Team mechanic is a mixed-bag it can serve on some specific ocassions but most of the time you ended up killing yout target before your team does most of the time. Most of the unique mechanics to this game don't flesh out that much really through the journey. Stealth is close to non-existent, specially in the Jungle levels when there is an incentive to use it. You will ending up shooting everyone without consecuence anyways. Conclusions: Interesting game, but it's not much of a fun ride, but it doesn't need to be it either. And by the end, you will ended up empty.

A underratted classic.

This is a game I keep going back to again and again. It maybe a bit rough around the edges but that adds to the charm. The story is engagging and makes you care from begining to end, a nice varity of firearms and music by Jesper Kyd which is always a good sign. It may be short but if you have a co-op buddy (it's local, no online which is crap.) it is a great game of the late 2000's. If you dig the story, read the Kane & Lynch comic, that is the true sequel.

Deckungs-Shooter

Um mit Controller spielen zu können muss man in der Registry rumspielen. Ist wenig lästig und funktioniert z.B. mit einem XSX Controller. Die filmartige Präsentation macht immer noch Laune. Die unliebsamen Protagonisten sind Geschmackssache. Fand ich damals besser, heutzutage ist das Try/Error / Script Spielprinzip nicht mehr ganz so mein Fall. Hatte trotzdem wieder viel Spaß und habe genau das bekommen was ich erwartet habe. Vorsicht: Teil 2 fand ich damals schon enttäuschend und anstrengend, unabhängig von der geschnitten/ungeschnitten Diskussion.

Glimmers of what could have been.

I played the 2nd game when it came out and it was okay I really like the getaway/robbery side game. I wasn't sure what to expect in this game, I walked away over all dissatisfied. I am not sure but it seems like there should have been another mode of play given there is a "drop money" and "view score" key bindings but never seems to show up in game play. Game is kinda rough, the main character "Kane" is a horrible, talks to everyone like they're garbage. The story is disjointed and plays out like scenes from a movie, very scripted, don't even bother trying to explore anything, A.I is terrible on both sides there could have been a great squad tactical shooter here but instead you end up ding 90% of the work even when giving your men orders to kill a specific target. It's not all bad though there are a few spots in the game where the shoot outs are well done. I feel like this game had so much potential that was unrealized. You can't skip most cut scenes, I musta watched the one near the end (without spoiling) a dozen times before giving up and asking google how to get past that part of the game. it's a rather short game so like it or hate it you'll not be here long. A lot of the story is just left hanging, your team, Lynch .. so much unanswered. There are 2 endings and I was unsatisfied with both of them. Replay value is pretty low you might play a few of your favorite levels again but not something you'll be coming back to again and again. It's not a bad game but could have been so much more, I don't know if it was time or just poor design choices but it's a real shame it didn't live up to it's potential. PS, I played on win10 and had stuttering freezing issues, look for a fix using a dx8input wrapper dll. It's also mentioned in the gog forum.. shame gog does not have this fix already applied.
