Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days Review
Stylistically, Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days is like all your favorite colorful candies packed into one thickly coated wrapper. Thick, because at times it’s hard to see beyond the game’s ulterior motives. There’s a lot of flavors and visual flare (such as the fact that the game looks like it’s being filmed on a… [Read more…]
