I have yet to play the first but the concept of the 2nd is sounding Way more appealing!

Like I said, the first game was wasted potential. If they address the many issues evident in the first Kayne & Lynch, we may just have a solid title on our hands here.

Way too early to depict anything though.

The bizarre thing is that K&L was a merging of two games that were excellent, and it turned out so damn wobbly for no apparent reason.

Beyond that, it's truly difficult to like anyone or anything in the story. Kane and Lynch are both arseheads, and there's nothing cool or compelling about them. I honestly think that using them as protagonists is the most surprising thing about there being a sequel at all.

Kane & Lynch has always been a love/hate thing. Love the idea, love the underlying story, even love the protagonist . . . but there was so much wrong with the execution, that it almost completely cancelled out all the love. blmbox stated that the game was "wasted potential," and I think those two words more adequately than any, is the perfect summation of the first game.

All that said, I hope they successfully fix all those issues in part two. Despite getting panned critically, the original sold very well, so hopefully they'll actually make a sequel deserving of both high praise and high sells, and stop wasting the potential present in this franchise.

    Loakum Ugh….scratch that previous comment. The upcoming Game of Thrones video game is a F’in mobile phone game. Why can’t they came an open world GoT game, like Witcher 3 or God of War? (> 3 Months ago)
