Hyper-realism and Grueling Gun Fights
I remember the idea of the interlacing, camera jiggle, deliberate mosaic censorship of violence and nudity and the harsh lens flare was often brought up as detriments to the game. Maybe I've seen way too many crime movies but it felt less jarring and sickening and more intriguingly grounded: like a found footage movie of a series of gun fights. This feel of realism is present in the patented bullet spread, the really beautiful and subtle terrain deformation when you blast a surface with buckshot or automatic fire, and the fact that explosions are sometimes deliberately garbled as the peak volume goes beyond whatever cheap microphone is supposedly recording the action. I love it: it's very unique, creative, and immersive! As for the story, it's the same cloak-and-dagger underworld yarn as the last Kane and Lynch game but I challenge you to find another game featuring an overweight balding anti-hero with severe mental difficulties. It's less John Woo and more Cops does Shanghai. The writing is terse and feels natural. Even the swearing only really ramps up in high stress situations, like Kane and Lynch themselves are trying desperately to crawl out of their seedier past, but they just keep getting pulled back in. I had one weird problem where a level loaded without sound and a completely white screen. I had to restart the game a day later, but after that it worked fine so I'm not sure what happened there. Also one star goes for the sheer randomness. You don't feel like a SWAT team guy so much as a regular joe fighting odds you really should not survive so you are constantly getting pelted from enemies you can't see but can see you and shoot you with pin point accuracy. It's a little frustrating at times when you get killed but you're not sure by who and not even sure what you should have been doing, and sometimes you can get lost (although there is a hint key thankfully). Solid, gritty, grungy, and even beautiful at times. Well recommended.
