Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days is a video game developed by IO Interactive, published by Eidos Interactive under Square Enix available on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and Microsoft Windows. It is the sequel to Kane & Lynch: Dead Men. The game switches the lead in the series, putting players in control of "self-medicated psychopath" Lynch. The story begins with Lynch having found peace in Shanghai and attempting to "make a fat deal where the pay is beyond his wildest dreams and nothing is going to get in his way." Players in the campaign mode of Kane & Lynch 2 will take control of Lynch who is backed up by the previous series protagonist Kane. The online enabled cooperative mode will allow players to play as Kane. Unlike Dead Men, players will only be able to arm up two of any weapon they can grab from dead enemies and cannot be swapped between allies. The combat system has been modified from the original game. Players can now take cover through a button press as opposed to originally being automatic depending on stance. While still having regenerating health, players can get knocked down while being able to immediately get back up.

Life evolves as does Combat. I love that there are so many games coming out my backlog is larger than I will ever hope finish. I love that my wife hasn’t killed me yet for each time I bring another unopened game into our home. And I love that I’ve gotten to spend some time playing Halo CE over the internet with a longtime friend, even if we haven’t been able to beat it yet.

It's easy enough to look past the original Halo's more dated qualities given Anniversary's tasteful visual refresh and a combat formula that's still plenty exciting.

Following the original blueprint left by Bungie, Halo: CE Anniversary proves that the franchise is in good hands with the crew at 343 Industries.

This reboot of Master Chief's first adventure is an exciting, if aged experience.

A unique tribute to all things Halo fall just short of being a revolutionary package.

Kane and Lynch's trek through Shanghai's underworld is astoundingly brief, leaving you just enough time to get a feel for the game's great visual style, but not much else. Also, we experienced a fairly crippling technical issue while testing the Xbox 360 version.

This gritty cover-based shooter is better than its predecessor, but as a package, it's light on content.

Kane & Lynch 2's fantastic visual style both hinders and elevates this straightforward crime game.
