He then kidnaps Lynch's girlfriend in which he and Kane go and rescue her.

You spend the entirety of the game being chased down by his men. He is a corrupt Politician and has control of some gangs and the police. Kane and Lynch shoots some dudes daughter I believe. The helicopter part visually looked bad you almost saw no buildings around you and when you looked down you literally saw nothing but fog, I mean that would be a perfect time to show some great city graphics and lighting! Story To be honest I did not really care about the story considering the length of the game though I will give you an extremely short summary of it here. When you would have to go through the streets of Shanghai I was really convinced I was in the streets of a city because there would be moments where a car would come out of nowhere from a side of the street but there are random roadblocks by some random cars that made me think "where did that car come from?". The graphics of the environments looked good its just that you end up looking at similar types of areas around you. Now the environments is what kinda disappointed me, the beginning levels you move around from apartment to apartment and also a couple of rooftops. I did not experience the problem that some people did where the whole screen shaking effect made them sick or woozy or something like that. The loading screens are actually buffering screens to show as if its some type of online video, why did they implement this type of visual style in this game I have no idea but I liked it. Graphics The look of the game is extremely unique as there hasn't been a game where it looks like its being filmed by a portable videocamera. As for enemy AI they aren't much of a challenge, though I have died a couple of times just be sure not to get close to them cause they can kill you with an instant headshot. Kane as your right hand man usually is doing what he's suppose to shooting dudes, however there has been many times where I find him shooting at the wall in front of him where he's taking cover. Now I will just quickly explain enemy and friendly AI. Missions do not have a lot of variety in them the only different type of action it has is one scene where you are given an LMG and put inside a helicopter to shoot some baddies inside a huge skyscraper, and to be honest it wasn't that bad. Throughout the environment you will find gas containers or fire extinguishers to make up for lack of grenades, Lynch does not throw them to far though, however it doesn't really matter because the fighting is usually in enclosed locations. One major problem I had with this game is that it becomes repetitive as almost all your tasks are the same, go here and shoot some dudes then go there and shoot some more dudes. I just had a slight problem where he won't get out of cover its that type of game where double clicking A won't set you off cover. Moving on to the cover mechanics, they work as they should I haven't encountered a serious problem with it, when I press the A button the Lynch takes cover where I want him to. The shooting works well except when enemies are really far thats when the assault rifles get a bit inaccurate and a "sniper" is needed. Gameplay The combat was definitely not terrible however it was not great either, there is somewhat of a variety of weapons that you come to expect in a shooter except that the snipers aren't really snipers there more like single shot rifles due to the fact that you can't actually see through the sights of the scope. Now here is my brief thoughts of the game. I've never finished a game worth 60$ in less than 4 hours so that was a first.

It was extremely short I thought I was going to get at least 4-5 hours of singleplayer gameplay but I beat it in 3 and a half hours on normal. Watching Jeff's review of Kane and Lynch 2 (360 version) got me thinking "wow what a perfect game rental", for the game being so short. First off I'd like to say that I work for Gamestop and one of my benefits as an employee is that I am allowed to borrow a used game for 4 days.
