Kane and Lynch: Dead Men


Unstoppable

Recommended Posts

Well this game is coming from the European side of the world so you guys can't bash this one. I love I/O interactive and played all of their Hitman Games. They also made Freedom Fighters which I have not played. The music is being done by Jesper Kyd. This genius guy is now also doing the composition for Assasin's Creed, Unreal Tournament 3, and a couple other blockbuster games. Lets just say this game will not dissapoint.

 

You'll also be able to play co-op on the same screen whether console or pc. Online co-op is only available for different missions vs cops. 8 people can team up vs the A.I. The twist? Only the person who escapes with the most money wins. It's like cooperation on a totally different level. When will you strike down your most closest enemy/friend?

 

Read here for info on online anti co-op mode.

Freaking innovative. Also you add all that plus a great storyline and an upcoming movie to boot. Here a synopsis

 

After the tragic death of his son, Kane leaves his family and becomes a member of The 7 – an elite mercenary group. After years of being at the top of their game, a mission in Venezuela goes terribly wrong. Kane escapes with the loot as the only survivor, but is caught and sentenced to death.

 

But not all of The 7 did die. They want the loot back and they want to deliver the punishment due to a traitor - death to him and his family. Kane is busted out of the prison van and offered a deal by The 7. His wife and daughter will be spared if he returns the loot. He will still be killed.

 

Lynch, a medicated psychopath sentenced to death for the murder of his wife, is busted out of prison with Kane to be his watchdog and make sure he fulfils the deal.

 

Kane - an experienced mercenary with everything to lose, and Lynch - an unpredictable psychopath with everything to gain, are thrown together in an intense, volatile alliance. No means are too harsh as they fight to save Kane's family and take revenge on The 7, hating each other every step of the way.

 

 

So enough about that. Hell even Oddity might pick this one up. 8 people here can play with each other but only one is going to survive at the end of the heist. Time for payback baby!

 

Also worth of note the game was pushed a week earlier. Coming november 14th. Talk about perfect timing. I'll be robbing banks with you guys soon enough. Let me know if you're picking up this potential blockbuster up!

Ever play Hitman: Codename 47? No other game captured the immersion factor for me like that in terms of being a Hitman. The music is freaking epic. You can get the trilogy of the 3 best Hitman games for 20-30 bucks now. Hitman Contracts (A remake of the 1st game which is Codename 47). Hitman 2: Silent Assassin. (Stellar game traveling around the world) Lastly Hitman: Blood Money where you go to the USA to lay a whoopin.

 

Get the free demo's online. Should give you a good idea of how great the programmer/engines that I/O create are.

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?

      I like the new frob highlight but it would nice if it was less "flickery" while moving over objects (especially barred metal doors).
