Kane & Lynch gets new, mullet-rich trailer

A new trailer has been released for Kane & Lynch: Dead Men, a title we've come to think of first and foremost as "that game with the really stylish advertising." The worst part? We're still susceptible to it, thanks to the video's irresistible combination of the three Ms: murder, mayhem and a mullet.

Seriously, look at that thing. Lynch (possibly Kane) is a real "business up front, party out back" sort of guy. Our eyes are only occasionally drawn away from the mullet by Kane's (possibly Lynch's) Breathe Right strip, and usually you couldn't pry our eyes away from those things with a crowbar. Oh, before we forget, this video contains another "M": mature language. So you probably shouldn't watch it at work if your boss is offended by profanity ... or, you know, mullets.

This is the sort of game that makes gamers look like lamers.

That looks terrible. The voice acting is horrendous.

This game looks crappy and cliche. Thanks but I'd rather play Forza 2.

It's not really a mullet... Doesn't a mullet necessitate a poofy top? He's more of a bald but ashamed to admit it kinda guy. What's with the game bashing comments though? It doesn't look that bad... Or maybe you guys know something I don't.

Gotta get me one of those "Kentucky Waterfalls" hair jobs.

Yeah, I'm going to have to agree with the fact that it doesn't really look like a mullet. I believe it is leaning more toward "skullet" territory.

Is it me or are they the same man with multiple personalities? I keep getting that very obvious vibe watching this trailer. I really know nothing about this particular game though. This is the first I've seen of it.

Okay, first of all(you can deduce this watching the trailer alone, but I already knew anyway) Lynch is the crazy psychopath with the glasses that does most of the talking. Kane is the cold calculating murderer out to save his daughter with the broken nose.

P.S.
Apart from the music this trailer does kinda suck. Check out the first one, it's actually good(and there seems to be some actual gameplay in it)

You guys fail at good games.

Go back to playing WoW.

HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO HALO.

P.S. this game looks cool.

embassy: Jun 9th 2007; 10:39PM

well first off, this game is suppose to be cheesy/corny etc, its kind of tougue and cheek, like Army of Two...same concept, lethal weapon turned into a game. i think it nails that right on, looks different fromt he other action shootser out there in that regard.

David: Jun 10th 2007; 12:51AM

SINCE I DONT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE GAME NOR HOW IT PLAYS IT MUST SUCK SINCE THE VOICE ACTING IS HORRIBLE ROFL ALSO MY CAPS LOCK IS BROKEN LOLLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Seriously, read up on it, you idiots. A mullet doesn't mean the end of the world. Whiney characters that you have play as (THAT ARE NAKED)instead of the awesome mullet guy is the end of the world. Oh wait, Metal Gear Solid 2 sold millions as well...HMMMM....

Shit-stained drawls.

Isn't there some kind of test you have to pass before being able to post on Joystiq? I suspect that many of you have velcro on your shoes.

TiaMaster: Jun 10th 2007; 1:15PM

Err....nope - not a mullet.

l0tus: Jun 10th 2007; 3:03PM

It's funny how the dipshit "writers" here are trying so hard to be humorous by talking about mullets when neither of the characters has one.

stracenska: Jun 10th 2007; 3:39PM

That's not a mullet.

OTAM: Jun 10th 2007; 4:00PM

I read alot about this game in my issues of EGM. I think it looks pretty damn awesome. Reminds me of one of those B-rated action movies that are just so over the top that it's sheer awesomeness.

This game reminds me of "speed chess".
