Just rent it and I like the story and the cut scene on the game. Jeff is right about aiming gun and taking cover stuff, they suck

however, the close combat is nicely done.

anyways overall, I would give the score 7.5 for this game...

Happy gaming

Aiming is ok once you get used to it but the cover does suck, I never use it, I just crouch behind stuff.

He really just spoke from the perspective of the other games that are currently on the market. If there was not other great games on the market, I'm sure the game would haven't gotten a higher review, but that's not the case. There are so many AAA titles that are the market that Kane and Lynch doesn't stand out. That's besides the fact that it was over hyped.

This game is not as bad as Jeff and others say. The aiming is bad though, but you can adjust sliders to slow down the aiming/turning speed which works out for me nicely but not perfect like other titles.

I bought it last weekend and sent it back today. Too many absolutely infuriating bits. The game had immense potential but its just clunky. You would've thought they'd just transfer the aiming and controls from hitman. I got to havana, and just gave up. Annoyingly hard with the broken aiming, questionable damage detection and a cover system that just doesn't work.

Yeah the aiming was like a ps2 game. It needs more analogue control. The story is kind of cool but I never really cared about what happened to the characters.

If they used AI from gears or RB6V, aiming from Halo, cover from gears or RB6V, and random respond from RB6V, this game would have been a high 9.

Just to bad they didn't put more into it, I really liked the level designs. the online is a really cool idea, but dang why not put random respoawn? It is like this game was original being developed for ps2 or something.

aiming took getting used to. You'd have to be pretty bad at the game not to be able to aim, it's not that difficult. It's not friggen halo where you can unload full automatic fire and kill ten people.

The pistols are better long range and machine guns work but are WAY better short to mid range. You have to know what you are doing.

The cover system does suck. i've only had one major glitch and it was actually pretty cool so i don't really care. It froze once or twice but then 360's are terrible pieces of hardware so it's probably not the games fault. (froze on guitar hero 3 a couple times as well)

And that ladies and gentleman is the reason why Cnet didn't think Jeff was good for this job.

This post and many others in the end remind you that this website, after all, is made for kids, teenagers and fanboys who are going to be happy as long as they "shoot stuff" ...God that is sad.

After all why would i be surprised? If you read user reviews on this website of high profile games before GS scores them they are all 10 and 9 no matter what crap it is.
