Kane & Lynch: Dead Men
Eidos Interactive, one of the world’s leading publishers and developers of entertainment software, is pleased to announce a new title from the award-winning creators of the Hitman series, IO Interactive. Kane & Lynch: Dead Men is a dark and gritty tale of two men bound by circumstance as they wait on death row for their final sentence.
One is a flawed mercenary, the other a medicated psychopath. The two are forced to embark on a violent and chaotic journey, hating each other every step of the way. Eidos confirm that “No gamer will have experienced anything like this before.'
“No gamer will have experienced anything like this before, both graphically and in terms of gameplay. Take IO’s innovation and graphical excellence from the Hitman series, add some of their widely acclaimed squad expertise from Freedom Fighters, then take these to a new level in next-generation technology. Add a gripping story, an anti-hero and a psychopath and you get Kane & Lynch: Dead Men; the ultimate next generation experience,” said Larry Sparks, Global Head of Brands Management at Eidos.
Kane & Lynch: Dead Men is a story-driven, fully co-operative third-person action shooter title, with intuitive crew mechanics, heavily populated destructible real-world scenarios, a volatile partnership and brutal attitude. Kane & Lynch: Dead Men will be available on Xbox 360 and PC in 2007.

What a stupid comment. They look cool, and I'm sure the game will be as well.

Eidos just made it official:

SAN FRANCISCO, July 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Eidos Interactive, one of the world's leading publishers and developers of entertainment software, today released the first details of its intense action title Kane and Lynch: Dead Men. Currently in development by IO Interactive, the team behind the Hitman franchise, Kane and Lynch: Dead Men will be released in 2007 initially for the Xbox 360(TM) video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and Windows.
"Eidos is pleased to announce the next hit from the award winning development team at IO Interactive," said Bill Gardner, President and CEO, Eidos, Inc. "IO's history of success as a developer assures us that we can look forward to only the highest quality and standards for this new title. IO gives gamers something to look forward to in 2007."
Kane & Lynch: Dead Men is a violent and chaotic journey of two men -- a flawed mercenary and a medicated psychopath -- and their brutal attitude towards right and wrong. This volatile partnership combined with innovative technologies allow for an unparalleled gaming experience.
"Using state-of-the-art technology, Kane and Lynch: Dead Men delivers a raw and compelling story-driven gaming experience not previously possible on current generation hardware," said David Bamberger, US Marketing Manager, Eidos, Inc. "The power of the Xbox 360(TM) and Windows allows us to dive deeper into a world of disturbing realism."
IO Interactive was established in 1998 and released Hitman: Codename 47 in November 2000. Immensely well received by reviewers and gamers alike, the game re-invented the 3D action game genre with its depth of story and intense gameplay. Since then, IO has developed three sequels to the first Hitman franchise on both current and next-generation consoles as well as for PC, and the developer is responsible for the critically acclaimed game Freedom Fighters.
IO Interactive's latest game in the Hitman series - the chart-topping and award-winning Hitman: Blood Money has been a huge international retail success. This amazing and genre-establishing franchise has established IO as a leader in the video game industry.
