A New Kane & Lynch?

The criminal duo may be coming back, at least that's the speculation. Someone at NeoGAF uncovered the fact that Square Enix has trademarked the name "Sleeping Dogs" and the general consensus is that this sounds like a new Kane & Lynch game. Yes, the last game was called "Dog Days," but that's a tenuous connection at best.

 

On the other hand, someone spotted a job posting at developer IO Interactive for a Senior Multiplayer Programmer that would be working on "multiplayer technology [that] lays the foundation for an as yet unannounced 3rd person game with strong cooperative multiplayer elements." Yep, sounds like Kane & Lynch.

 

IO is currently putting Hitman Absolution together, but with that Kane & Lynch movie starring Bruce Willis and Jamie Foxx (uh...yeah) still being threatened for 2013 they may want to cash in on the K&L name. Get it while the gettin's good, I guess.

 

The previous Kane & Lynch games were unpolished, to say the least, but I enjoyed them. What do you guys think about a new one?

I remember when Square Enix could mention the release of a game and I'd be following it from day one. Now when they mention a game, I feel my respect for them lower like I'm flushing down a bad virus. Front Mission Evolved, FFXI, FFXIII, Kane and Lynch, and the list goes on and on. I don't think there's any hope left for them. I only wish I could remember them as they were, and not as they are now. They need to overhaul their work force and soon, before things like Kingdom Hearts get tainted with this filth they keep spitting out.

You mean like when all they did was crank out FF game after FF game? They bought out Eidos which doesn't exactly make stellar games with the polish SE usually has. However, since the take over, we game gotten awesome titles like Batman Arkham Asylum/City. They have definitely stepped up their game. If you didn't like K&L, then I'm sorry, but they had good stories and you missed out. With any luck we will see a new Time Splitters.
