References to Li's films
-A gas mask chamber while trying to fight Kwan in which Kit has to grab Kwan's mask to restore his own air supply, is a reference to the final fight in The Bodyguard from Beijing
-Kit having an option to use mobile stretchers while shooting firearms from a supine position in the hospital stages is also most likely a reference to Black Mask, in which the hero does a similar stunt while commandeering a motorcycle. Several reveiws also note that the hospital gurney scene is from the Hong Kong film Hard Boiled
-Kit releasing his grip on a handrail and grabbing the next one in the floor below, is a reference to the beginning of Cradle 2 the Grave
-Kit fighting twin enemies before fighting the main villain is a reference to Kiss of the Dragon. In addition, the twin enemies are named Fei and Hung, most likely a poke at the folk hero Wong Fei Hung, who Jet Li played in the Once Upon a Time in China series.
-Kit breaking a criminal's neck wuith his legs in a similar fashion to Lethal Weapon 4
-Kit having the option to team up with Michelle for a fight in the Metreon is inspired by Jet Li and Aaliyah's fight scene against Francoise Yip in Romeo Must Die.
-2 unlockable skins: Wong Fei Hung and Chen Zhen from Fist of Legend
-Kit is also the name of Li's character from the 1994 movie Meltdown
I'm a girl born in the wrong decade. I belong in the 1960s or the 1970s in my opinion. I bleed tie dye, my theme music is anything 1960s rock or 1970s rock or metal. I'm a hippie through and through. But also a hippie who loves old metal music. I believe that violence never solves anything, so why resort to it to solve problems? With all the wars the world has seen, there should be a clue somewhere in there!
