    The demo is alright. The shaky cam makes the game feel more hectic but it’s kind of annoying. Perhaps after I play it a couple more times.

  • Ollyh

    @Arte Venture

    You do realise you can turn the shaky cam off?

  • r3dreck

    Passing after playing the demo of the first.

  • a peeking duck

    It’s an improvement over the first (there’s a button for going to cover now!), but shooting was still a bit off when I played it on the PS3.

  • Carg0

    Kane & Lynch 2?

    that’s odd. i don’t recall anyone asking for a sequel.
    an apology for the first one? yes. a sequel? no.

  • Kenjuan

    Never played the first one. I’ll give the demo a try.

  • TBizzle4Shizzle

    Good Lord, Major, these new game covers with the big green mess in the top right are obnoxious. Was this really the best design scheme to distinguish Kinect / non-Kinect games?

  • MACPH1ST0

    Yeah I agree with Tbizzle. The old design was just fine and didn’t need to be messed with so much. This new design is just a bit too… garish.

  • Codename6

    First game was horrible…I’ll give this a try when I get home.

  • ElektroDragon

    The only way I’d be less interested in this is if it were Madden.

  • sleepydumbdude

    So anyone who played this actually like it? I bought the first and disliked it.

  • Casserole

    The first game I felt was a 5 out of 10 at be…. what’s that Mr Lawyer, they are sponsoring our website? Oh what a silly typo, I meant 9 out of 10. I will resign shortly after to prove that I didn’t mean it.

  • The Pizman

    I actually like the new game cover

  • evildead1024

    Why not in Germany again?…. damn it…

  • chiruno99

    Need more Survival Horror games, not sequels to bad games.

  • Arte Venture

    I also like the new watermark in the top right.

    ( ‘All Xbox Live regions except Japan’ … genius. )

  • Ollyh

    I have no idea what everyone’s beef with this game is. It’s changed in many different ways and all for the best in my opinion even though I enjoyed the original. Can’t wait to pick it up in August.

  • evildead1024

    @ Yuriam
    THX
    yes i have found it later too.
    But this isnt the same like other. Theres only SinglePlayer

    German Demo is 1 GB Download

  • Blue Thunder28

    I enjoyed the first one a lot, especially the multiplayer.. I have been playing the exclusive demo for this for the past couple weeks and I love it, A LOT. Pre-ordered it.

  • GoobTuff

    Oh my god that is some awful boxart.

  • K1LLER HORNET

  • captpluto9465

    It feels almost like a budget title. I like how your shotgun can kill guys from so far away, what is it like a auto-sniper shotgun? ;-) I could see having some fun with the robbing MP mode, but I doubt I’ll even rent this.

  • RuairiAU

    Thats the worst boxart ever.

  • rastansaga

    Shssssh! Hush!
    don’t say anything bad about this game, or else Square Enix will try and bully your
    employer with their advertisement dollars and try to get you the sack.

  • ROBBMAC

    @Ollyh I’m with you Ollyh. The first game was fun and from what I’ve played of the demo all the parts that needed improvement seem to have gotten that right out the box. Most people got their panties in a bunch over the fiasco between gamespot.com and the makers of this game, thus they transferred their knee-jerk reaction into “this game was bad”. Yet if you listen to the majority of people who complain about it, they never even played the first one. They just regurgitated what the internet was abuzz about when it released.

    Gamers spend more time criticizing games these days than they do playing them and having fun with them.

  • Ollyh

    @ROBBMAC
    Exactly, well put sir.

  • a1984darkboy

    People can hate all they want, but I personally loved the first one. K&L2 looks to be everything I loved about the first one and more.
