Kane & Lynch DLC Trailer
Posted by Mike Fahey at 1:40 AM on April 15, 2008
For the five or six of you still playing Kane & Lynch on a regular basis, here is a trailer for the downloadable content that should be hitting your console of choice later this week. It contains four new multiplayer maps that you can choose while you sit around waiting for other people to come play. I kid Kane & Lynch. I am sure it has a very devout following and tens of dozens of people will be queued up to play come April 17th. Enjoy!

@tomakasatnav:
I agree. It wasn't as awful as it's made out to be, although the latter parts of the game were a chore. Getiing over that courtyard with the helicopter shooting at you was a ballache!
And yeah, credit to making these maps free. If only a few more devs were so kind.
@spartansCreed:
Yeah...i lay awake at night thinking "why oh why did i by that damn game? The footstep noises are bloody awful!"

I feel bad for the people that paid money for this game. The sound effects are terrible!

You mean K&L is a real game? I thought it was an April Fool's joke ...
I kid, I kid -- actually, there are people that enjoy the game, so it is cool that they're getting some more content. There will always be devisive games that some enjoy, and some don't. So, I'm happy for the people that are still playing.

Kane and Lynch was fine, and multiplayer was fun. Will be trying these out.

Love the zingers, but I still look forward to the day when we will no longer have to deal with K&L news of any shade.

They should make Jeff Gerstmann a playable character

My friends were playing it for a while, but only because they got it for free, and they quit because it crashed so much.
Me? Tried it once, never tried it again.

I think it's pretty cool that they're releasing the multiplayer maps for free. No reason to be so mean.
There's at least seven or eight people that play it.

since when does DLC get its own trailer, i can understand wow or mass effect its an extension to the story, but new maps dont really constitute a trailer much us a video teaser

"For the five or six of you still playing Kane & Lynch on a regular basis,"
Predictably snappish.
I love it.

I suspect that the K&L match-making servers aren't exactly jumping with life but being that GTA has at least 3 multi-player modes that put this game's multi-player mode, I wonder what it will mean for this game's community?

I counted three zingers in that one little paragraph... impressive.
People aren't playing Kane & Lynch, I think I get it.

Ouch, Kane and Lynch still feeling the hurt of Gerstmanngate. I haven't seen a games industry PR disaster like this since Daikatana.

@pylon_trooper: Id say atleast half the people who talk crap about it never even actually played it and were so "upset" about that guy getting fired, and the other things that surrounded its launch. My only major problem with the game is like has been sad the later missions are a chore, and can be pretty difficult to complete.

What...april 17th is gran turismo day. I'm sure it'll be pretty quiet at the lynching camp.

I feel sorry for the developers who had to bear the bad publicity burden of the Gerstman scandal when none of it was in any way their fault.
so sad :)

It's not a bad game really, I just wouldn't pay $50 for it. I got it as part of the Eidos pack on Steam and just finished it yesterday.
The story was decent, dialogue was better. The gunplay was easy but also satisfyingly violent. Haven't tried the multiplayer.

Jeese, this is worse than global warming. "All the cool kids talk trash about KnL so I have to too".
I wonder if there was a difference between the console and the PC version, cause I thought it felt and sounded kind of weak in the PC demo. But the copy I bought for PS3 played really well. Also, some of the better weapon sounds in a while (PS3 version).

Y'all are... thanking the devs for making it free? Now do you really think this shovelware would be free if K&L hadn't become gaming's biggest running joke since Kao the Kangaroo?

Liked the game, beat it too quickly though. Doesn't mean I'm not going to download me some free DLC, come April 14th.

Kane & Lynch was a decent co-op shooter with a refreshingly unapologetic story. Even though I only tried the multiplayer once, it is nice that they release new content. A few single-player maps would be nice as well.
The whole Gerstmann-issue was so overblown and irrelevant. If anything, Eidos deserves blame for rushing Kane & Lynch out too early, but hopefully the sequel won't be rushed. Kind of like with the Hitman-games, its sequels just keep getting better and better.

I tried playing the bank robbery level on this but I always died at the safe. Oh well.
I've got to say though, I think the graphics on this map are amazing. Meh, maybe its because I just woke up?
