Is anyone else frustrated by just how bad this game is?

Seriously. The single player campaign is a piece of shit. The story is disjointed, weak, contrived, and poorly acted. The controls are clunky at best, there's no dedicated button for reloading, the cinematics are choppy, and hit detection is shit. I could go on.

Ugh. Hacking through this game is painful.

EDIT: I think my favorite part was when the story suddenly and inexplicably shifts from a heist in Japan to a fucking revolution in Cuba with no setup, no explanation, and no reason whatsoever. Not to mention that this game is so fucking broken that it is almost unplayable.

Well Im gonna have to disagree i really like this game, Its about $5 so its not like you paid a bunch but i found the story to be really nice some things bothered me like died a fuck load on easy, my first play through, but dominated hard, and yes the sudden jump to cuba was kinda off putting but thats what else where they gonna do with the story after that previose point they need a sudden jump one thing i hate though is the achivments some are almost impossible to get unless you bost, they say one thing and mean another also the guide isnt exactly right on a few, like the killing pig cops. all in all it was a good game to mess around with some friends with

a playable and passable game but all the things you have said about it are true.

i was able to complete over half the game in about five hours one night but then i lost interest and only played here and there. i just finished it like five minutes ago. the ending was totally unexpected for me when kanes daughter pulls a gun on him.

i died heaps when playing the club mission in japan but beat it eventually.

i thought they could have maybe had the camera move around more quicker instead of it swing around slowly like it does. that could have improved the game maybe.

i also own kane and lynch 2: dog days but have yet to play it. i have played the demo and enjoyed that, but that was about the time of release i guess obviously.

I got it for £2, not too bad a game, have played a lot worse. If i bought it on release i would have probably been really disappointed. Good for what it is though.

It's saddening. The game has it's moments. The first half of the game is actually a cool collection of levels that is brought down by poor design choices. It goes way off the map in the second half.

The second game has better gameplay and graphics but worse everything else.

I thought the story was the strongest part really its about kane seeking redemption when really he has no hope at all, its one of the few games where no matter how much ass you kick your not going to win in the end.

I've always wanted to go back and complete more of this turd, but I can't.. everytime I try to I end up turning it off, it's really a poor game, some cool ideas but if you're a shooting game and the aim and movement of the player is shit unfortunately the core of your game is broken.
