Rough around the edges
A balding, unstable, homicidal, drug addicted, emotionally-needy redneck with black outs is forced to work with a fellow robber (with a vulnerable teenage daughter) who betrayed his friends and stole heist money ... Sound familiar? Kane & Lynch was so utterly ignored, that no one even noticed Rockstar ripped off this game's plot when they made GTA V. But I digress. Kane and Lynch starts strong, however, the last few chapters are extremely awful. The cover system never works smoothly, squad mechanics add nothing, and checkpoints are ineptly placed. Weapons notably have little accuracy. It gets worse. Aiming causes the FOV to zoom in to a sickening 40 degrees, making close-quarter gunfights in low light a confused blur. That is, when the protagonist's head isn't blocking the reticle. The big choice in the end is so poorly delineated, I accidentally got the wrong option because I wasn't sure how to choose the one I actually wanted. That said, it's not a terrible game, as people claim, just an amateurish one. Contrary to popular belief, IO Interactive has always been an overrated developer who struggled with shooting mechanics and responsive third-person movement. The first Hitman games and Freedom Fighters aged pretty horribly. And unlike those games, Kane and Lynch's story is surprisingly good, it just isn't told competently--another recurring issue with IO. This game has a lot of wasted potential, sadly.
