Kane And Lynch Is Awesome?

Apparently that is what Eidos would like you to think. A game already mired in controversy due to Gerstmann Gate; Eidos didn't help matters after pictures surfaced from the official website claiming that K&L received glowing reviews from GameSpy (claimed 5/5) and Game Informer (claimed 5/5). If Eidos lived in Neverland that could be true, we however live in reality. In reality GameSpy gave K&L 3/5 stars and Game Informer gave it a 7/10 (they don't even use stars).



In addition to the ratings, the blurbs supposedly from the reviews of K&L are in fact earlier comments from previews of the game. Hope Eidos' PR people are good, because their hole keeps getting deeper and deeper.



Activision and Vivendi Marry

Activision is responsible for the acclaimed Call of Duty Series and the Tony Hawk franchise (which was soundly upstaged by Skate.) while Vivendi owns Blizzard Entertainment. I consider myself awesome at a lot of things, finances isn't one of them however. Suffice it to say, my only commentary here is that Activision is sitting pretty knowing they now have perennial cash cow World of Warcraft and with the much anticipated Starcraft 2 coming next year, I think it's safe to say this was a pretty good financial move.
