FanCensus says: "Hitman: Absolution looks set to feature five difficulty modes, offering newcomers the chance to ease their way in as well as providing a challenge for masochists and something for everyone else in between."
When Hitman 3 recently changed its name to Hitman World of Assassination, fans had no idea how meaningful the moment was. On the outside it looked like a simple thing: Hitman 3 would now be known by this name and include levels from Hitman 2 and 3 - the trilogy would all be in one place. But on the inside, at IO Interactive, much more was going on.
You mean destroyed it with this tethered single-player campaign BS... And only the first few levels of the third modern game were on the disc! I'll never support this crap at any price-point! They've lost me as a customer.
The last 10 years of Hitman have been full of highs and lows. And David Bateson and Jane Perry have been there with the series through this eventful decade.
Hitman is, and has been, a remarkable series developed by some of the best. Some are better than others, but every Hitman is challenging and fun.
Sure, there have been some stumbles and fumbles, but always in pursuit of the perfect Hitman game. The most recent trilogy is a masterclass in level design.

I will be platinuming this, I LOVE Hitman! Infact, head over rot my YouTube account, PS3gamervideos, to see my new Hitman: Contracts 'let's play'!
'Purist' sounds brutal however; I will begin this on Pro for the first time.
I think this will be my game of the year. I like what they're doing with the difficulties. THey're making the first 4 difficulties look so lame and hand -holdy its not even worth the time. But it would be lame if you unlock things in the game on any difficulty.
And this game probably should have come out in october and before assassins creed 3. It might get over shadowed because while Hitman is popular, AC is a massive sales juggernaut.
I'm certain that I am minority when compared to the entire industry, but, I've cancelled my ACIII pre-order to make room for Hitman.
I'll get ACIII in 2013 when it's half price (or less) on Steam.
Hitman is too unique and my patience doesn't work against agent 47.
