IO Interactive has informed us that Kane & Lynch: Dog Days has gone gold and that it will hit the stores one week earlier than planned: on August 17th in North America and on August 20th in Europe. As a bonus, here is a new multiplayer trailer.
“The team has worked hard to deliver a game that’s different from the current trend of third-person shooters and we’re so pleased to be able to share it with the world ahead of schedule,” said Niels Jørgensen, general manager of IO Interactive. “With development now complete, why keep people waiting any longer? We want to let gamers experience the game we’ve created and get them online betraying their friends in Fragile Alliance, so we have decided to bring the release date forward by one week.”
Experience 48 hours of hell with two of gaming’s most notorious criminals in Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days. Kane and Lynch face the consequences when a simple job gone wrong sets off a desperate and frantic struggle to escape the entire Shanghai underworld. Ground-breaking art direction, relentless action gameplay and innovative multiplayer redefine the action shooter experience and positions Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days as the standout shooter of 2010.

Good luck guys!
It had too many nagging issues to be enjoyable IMO.
BUT, After playing the demo I can say that ALL of the issues are now gone. It doesn't even feel like the same game at all. Honestly, I can't think of a sequel that has made more of an improvement than Kane & Lynch.
If in general then I will mention Killzone 1 to Killzone 2...probably add Killzone 3 (probably, havent seen much obviously).
But from the videos I seen, the recoil is quite crazy and it takes too much bullets to kill someone.
I did try the first game, aiming was bad as well as the over being clunky.
But K&L2 demo is coming to PSN Plus+ on 20th and 27th (i think) as a public demo, I will definitely download it and try it. I really like the look of the "trick" they have used for the visuals, some of the lighting flares reminds me of Killzone 2, I love them :)
This game looks great; can't wait to play it!
