Kane & Lynch Site Fibbing About Reviews, Scores
It's not like the relationship between
Kane & Lynch and review scores
wasn't messy enough. But now
this? Visitors to the game's official site will notice, once the page's flash intro is done, that two review scores for the game are flashed for your perusal. One from GameSpy, one from Game Informer. Both look positively glowing! Both give the game a
very encouraging five stars! Thing is, both are...well, not real. They're fabricated. Lies, if you will.
GameSpy did
not say "It's the best emulation of being in the midst of a Michael Mann movie we've ever seen" in their
review of the game. They said that in their E3 2007 coverage. In other words, a preview. They also did not give the game five stars. They gave it
three.
As for Game Informer, same deal. The highlighted quote does not appear in the review of the game. Nor do they give it five stars. Game Informer don't even score in stars. They gave it a 7/10.
To assist you in correcting your error, Eidos, and you in procuring all the necessary facts, dear reader, attached below are how the two review selections
should appear.
