The Kane character used in another game is a disgrace

[PurpleGaga27 40]

I can't believe IO Interactive and Square Enix are using this "Kane" character in a different game (in a different world) apart from the Kane character in C&C. I wonder if the developer ever got permission from EA to use the Kane name as a different character (without the bald head look). If you have heard of the game series, it's called Kane & Lynch.

 

So far the first two games released (including the latest one this week) are getting poor scores. The first Kane & Lynch game was released in the same year EA released C&C3 (with Kane in it). And it gets worse, a adaptation of the film of the same name is being developed with Bruce Willis acting as Kane in the movie:

There was another film that had John Travolta who almost looked like Kane (but with a beard) in the 2010 film, "From Paris with Love". This was separate from the Kane & Lynch game series.:

and some screenshots of the movie:

Sure there are others who will try and look like Kane (especially Joe Kucan). But remember folks, there can always be the original Kane and they can't terminate or steal the identify of the Messiah.

Kane and Lynch is a great game series, and no!, the character has nothing at all to do with the Kane from C&C in any way. It's a whole different story, different setting, person and personality.

 

Back off with your attention whoring

 

 

EDIT:Added some pictures to compare with.

They're not that similar really. Besides its another game universe.

 

Also, C&C is dead and so is Kane (At this time).

So anyone that uses the name "Kane" is ripping off C&C, is that it?

 

The premise of this topic is so ridiculous, I should just lock it now...
