Kane and Lynch 2: Dog Days Preview!

You think they'd have learned by now eh?

If I was Kane and Lynch called me, I'd probably just start screaming "PRANK CALLER PRANK CALLER!" and hang up the phone. Luckily for us he doesn't, or this would be a really short game and preview.

Where are we know then? Lynch has settled down in Shanghai with his girlfriend Xiu (just call her Sue, it's easier), still a henchman just slightly less psychotic, and finding he needs Kane's help, gives him a call.

Upon Kane's arrival, Lynch tells him he just needs to pay a quick visit to someone, to 'pass along a message'. We know what that means in Lynch language. A good old fashioned... er... lynching.

They get to the apartment where this guy lives, and when they kick the door in there's the man in question having ROMANTIC RELATIONS with a naked (cos it helps with such matters) lady. Cue a massive and jaw dropping chase across the rooftops and through the streets of Shanghai.

I don't wanna say too much, because I won't have anything to jabber on about in the review, but the Gruesome Twosome end up owing favours left, right and centre to the guys helping them stay one step ahead of the Shanghai underworld.

Apparently this is nothing to be proud of, but in the level I played at Square-Enix HQ, I was the only person who managed to get run over by a bike after shooting the rider, get hit by a car that was hit by a truck, and then get hit by that very same truck, thereby dying three times in a row at essentially the same place.

I rule.

Keep checking back on Maxim.co.uk for when I finally lift the lid on one of this years BIGGEST GAMES.
