Eidos life president Ian Livingstone has confirmed there will be more Kane & Lynch coming from Danish-based IO Interactive, despite the "Marmite effect".
He admits people either "loved it or hated it" with the sequel and its shaky home video style camera. It was "thrill-a-minute instant action stuff," said Livingstone.

Niels Jorgensen of IO Interactive says product advertising and reviews from critics both play crucial roles in videogame sales, each appealing differently.
Some take advertising over reviews and vice versa, and some just browse a store and buy what looks exciting. Glad of mixed Kane & Lynch 2 scores.
