Man....what an awful game
This is the single worst piece of trash I have ever purchased in my seventeen years of living. There is no price that would make this game worth getting. Don't even let anybody give it to you, its bad. The worst game I've ever played. The box makes it look cool but all it really is at best is a low budget, slapped together piece of garbage. The graphics look like a cheap Playstation 2 game. The gameplay sucks; you can be shooting someone in the head with an AK right on top of them and its like the game wont even aknowledge that you're shooting them. I'm not going to get too specific with details cause there are so many things that are awful about this game it would take too long to explain in a review but please take my word for it, its bad, dont get it. I don't usually write reviews for anything but this game was so horrible that I felt that I had to warn others about it. Thanks for reading...peace.

Could Be Great, but just Good
Kane and Lynch is a really good game!
The characters Kane and Lynch are not your goody two shoe protagonists
Kane is a former Mercenary who has been in prison for a while
and Lynch is a Medicated Psycho who goes on killing sprees when hes not on his medication
they fall into the same category of Alex Mercer, Kratos and Vito from Mafia 2
characters who aren't out to save the world just selfish and all about their own business which is why they're probably hated in the gaming world
but games need these kind of characters so you don't always feel like the guy your playing as is just like every other hero who will go out of his way to help those in need
I only talk about this so much because if you have read reviews and seen videos and heard all the bad things about the protagonist you're probably gonna miss out or be real late on such a good title
believe me you don't want to play this once PS4 comes out
Story is really Good filled with a lot of violence
Missions are Fun and never repeat themselves you can be going all out gun fight in the streets, fighting through night clubs and going on stealth missions
graphics are okay nothing impressive
sound is what makes up for design in this game
voice acting is superb and gun fights sound great
But this game does suffer from really bad controls
guns recoil really bad and sometimes it gets hard to shoot
team ai can get annoying as they put themselves in harms way almost all the time when order to take out target not remembering the other six enemies surrounding their target
Pros: Story, Characters, Sound, Different from any other game
Cons: Gun Recoil, aiming, team ai

started good ended sucking
aite so this game was a underaverage game it should of been kept in production another year because i think they would of come up with a better ending.......the ending was terrible whether you went to the church or if you got on the boat.....either way it ends terrible...umm the graphics were pretty good it would be better if u didnt have to use the same two guns and not have to take the bad guys guns to have a different gun cuz there guns suck.....it would be cool if u got to play with lynch outside of the multiplayer mode but yea this game i prolly will never ply again and tht price listed above isnt worth it

Good, but not Great
I like this game, but it's not the most exciting game. The shooting engine is very confusing. It's like stuck between second and third person which makes it hard to aim. Storyline is strong. Game itself is actually pretty tough. You're given a beat up con with migraines as the main character. The missions are fun, there's a good variety and it doesn't repeat itself. Holy cow does it take forever to download, however. I waited well over two hours!! Anyway, if you've got the buy two get one free coupon or something like that, you may want to use it on this game. It's a pretty fun game.

average game.
Io Interactive is best known for its stealth-focused Hitman series, but there's nothing quiet and sneaky about its latest release, Kane & Lynch: Dead Men. This time around, the developer put together a crime-themed shooter that starts out with a couple of simple, heist-like objectives and then rapidly spins out of control until, without much warning, you're gunning down soldiers in the middle of a foreign revolution. While the journey sounds interesting at first, and has a few bright points, it's weighed down by bad storytelling, a real lack of character development, and a host of gameplay-related issues. The end result is a game that squanders much of its potential and just doesn't come together as well as it probably should have. The story mode opens with you in the role of Kane, a death row inmate on his way to his execution, apparently convicted of being a very savage criminal as part of a notorious gang called The7. You're on your last ride with a quirky guy named Lynch who tells you to cover your head. After an explosion, you're both busted out and on the run. That might sound great, but it's a fate worse than death. The surviving members of The7 have busted you out to force you to recover something they think you stole from them. They consider you a traitor and will kill Kane's family if he doesn't comply. Lynch is sent along for the ride to watch over Kane and report in if anything weird happens. Circumstances change over time and the back half plays out like a revenge tale, but it's a revenge tale where you don't actually care if anyone actually gets their revenge. Every single person you play as or encounter is despicable and wholly abrasive; thus, it'll probably be tough for you to find anyone to latch onto and care about, even if you typically go for this sort of crime drama on TV or in movies. You can play through this story alone or with a friend in co-op mode, though this mode is only available locally and takes place on a vertically split screen that makes it difficult to follow the action, even on a widescreen TV.

Worst Game EVER!!!!
i had bought this game used about two weeks ago and let me tell you that this game really needed to be kept in the dark for all time until the end of the world or give this game as a peace offering to aliens if they were real because this game really SUX. i will admit the first few minutes of playing this game i had hihgh hopes for it but after playing for about 2 hours i realized that this game was god awful and there is no way i would ever play this game again. not even if i was tortured, NO WAY in HE**. the graphics in the game were alright but they were still lacking. the controls were even worse, because i would have to pause the game and check the controller layout before i started a mission. the controls were really wierd. now the story was alright it was a tale about revenge, however that does not make up for the fact that this game should have stayed in production for avout another year to work out the bugs. i think that the only real good thing about htis game is that if you ever feel like burning something that is not worth anything then this would be the game to burn over and over again. bottom line i will never play tjis game again nor will i look in the same direction as that game. do NOT buy this game no matter what!!!

Great game
It is a really great game. I loved doing the whole story from start to end. At the end you can choose whether to let your men die and fly away with your own life or go in the burning church after them. I love shooting people and when you get shot or shoot someone, it shows the bullet hole unlike most shooters. I just love mission where you go in, prepare a strategy and stick to it. In one mission, you shoot dow a helicopter with an rpg, in another, you rob a bank. I think it is really greatly put together. It is fun to use sniper rifles also. It's usually a one hit one kill situation with it. I love taking good guns from my men. Like in the first mission that you try to kill the brothers that killed your wife and tried to kill your daughter, you can take a silenced bolt-action sniper rifle. It's just fun to see where a shot hit, and I think that that is a cool feature.

Kane And Lynch Rulz...
Kane and Lynch Dead Men is a really good game that i have played so far. The graphics go from really good to really bad, the sounds are alright, i love the storyline, its not too short like one chapter can take you from 20 minutes to an hour so it varies. Other than that the controls are really good, easy to follow and stuff. So i like this game a lot... i do recomend this game to people who like action/adventure games, and crime games. This game has a lot of good things and one of them is the online option which i really like so thats why i think this game is really good and thats why i also think that even though some things are bad like some other things cover them in so i recomend this game to every player who likes action and crime games. Kane and Lynch Rulz..
