Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days is the successor to the 2007 third person shooter from Eidos Interactive (Square Enix), Kane and Lynch: Dead Men.

The two degenerates Kane and Lynch are back, but now they’re older, they’re tired and they’re in it for that fabled ‘one last job’ as they say.

It all begins as Lynch (James Seth Lynch) calls Kane (Adam “Kane” Marcus) to China to help him out with a big job with a lovely big fat final payout; just a simple bit of ‘gun-running’ from China to Africa.  All they have to do is meet up with their contact and they are set for a nice big fat payday. Public menace # 1 . . .

With the retail release of Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days just around the corner (August 26 brought forward to 17th), an exclusive demo was released onto Xbox Live Marketplace last week to be downloaded by a lucky few gaming journalists and fans.

OXCGN’s GrathiusXR and Belgavion spent several hours engaged in the game, both in single player and co-op mode, and have sat down to discuss their thoughts on the demo and whether this sequel is looking to be an improvement on the original.

Belgavion: I never delved too deep into Kane & Lynch: Dead Men. I was intrigued by the dynamic between the characters and the intensity of the story, but the gameplay side didn’t live up to expectations.

Let’s dig a little deeper shall we . . . .
