Good game wich needs a remaster

Well, let's make this easy. Here are the things I liked: + Characters that you belive in; + Logic story, wich made you think "could it even be better?"; + Conspiracy crime organization. Well I didn't expect that at all. But it feels like "John Wick"'s but just in the beginning; + Good atmosphere music (where there are some). + Actualy not that stupid AI parthners. They DO something and the DO save you. + Awesome revive system wich is fresh for SP even now. + Game duration. It's just perfect. Short and full of action story. And here's what not so good: - Shooting. I though it's good but not, it's not at all. Even when you aim, you don't get shots get in the aiming area, they just burst all over the screen; - Sound design. Oh damn, there are so many times when you just couldn't hear somebody because he's on the "wrong" angle from you. There are no problems that couldn't be solved by remastor or remake. This game deserve it. Overall I will give it a 8/10.

A Series of Depraved Vignettes

If Breaking Bad somehow killed off the main characters and focused on any one of the crazed henchmen, it wouldn't look too disimilar to Kane and Lynch. All you can do is shoot, and all the plot can do is neander to 90's homages until it ends. You will find references to Heat, Predator, and Collateral. Where those references are generally found in light-hearted games like Saints Row 4, Kane and Lynch's story and aesthetics are miserable and depraved, so it almost feels tone-deaf. The simple shooter action is blindsided by a callous story, one that drunkenly falls to a sad corpse of an ending that leaves an awful taste in your mouth. Its worth the few dollars spent, but the sequel is where this game's ideas work together. These games are painful, not forgettable.

It’s clunky, but it’s unique

In some ways, this is a better and more ambitious game than its sequel. The controls are pretty clunky and the AI is very poor. I like the characters most of all and the story is pretty engaging. Just for being different, I give it one more star. It’s probably never gonna happen but this is a game that could really benefit from a remake.

Diamond admired by Rockstar Games

The developers at IO Interactive deliberately sought to create the most sensational third-person experience on screen, building upon the hallmarks of their past work. Echoing the cinematic mastery of director Michael Mann in Heat, this interactive rendition amplifies those elements, offering players an immersive and heightened experience. The studio leveraged its expertise in maintaining a certain realism—established in the Hitman series—through ragdoll physics and mature narrative content, complemented by highly cinematic music. This combination contributed to a distinctive and memorable style that would later be reflected in Kane & Lynch. Furthermore, IO Interactive introduced innovative gameplay mechanics that were so effective that Rockstar appropriated them for two of its own titles: Max Payne 3 and GTA V. It is strongly recommended that players experience this atmospheric work firsthand and consider comparing it with the aforementioned titles to appreciate its influence and craftsmanship.
