10 Insane Hidden Connections Between Video Games

10. Hitman - Kane And Lynch

Given that both these titles are set in the real world, and revolve around cold-blooded killers, it shouldn't come as any surprise that both the Hitman and Kane & Lynch series take place within the same world.

Dating as far back as Hitman: Blood Money, the first indication that the scumbag killers also occupy the same locale as Agent 47 comes in the form of a newspaper article that mentions that the pair have escaped prison and are on the run, which of course would lead to the events of their first game.

And whilst that could be seen as a throwaway easter egg, the connection is then firmly established in Hitman: Absolution where both Kane and Lynch can be spotted during the firing range level. With Lynch stood firing a shotgun at a target, whilst Kane can be found chilling over by the jukebox in the bar area.

And if you're so inclined, it's possible for Agent 47 to kill the pair of them, so if you too had suffered through either of their games, you can at least feel some level of catharsis for what you had to endure.
