Im sooooo glad David Bateson was brought back to voice 47

Maybe I'll skip this one for the time being.

I can't judge this game from this review. The review seem to use clever tricks to give the impression of stupidity in the way it was built. Like crouching with a bear suit on and constantly switching the weapon out (i.e. it was used for effect and seems to show one side of the game). Also a lot of this footage involves Agent 47 shooting his way out and the best way to play a Hitman game is with stealth. I think it is best to see what the general view is from other publication because I am finding GT are becoming more untrustworthy with there reviews and often more random (on a side point I am glad this review is 10 minutes long because lately they seem to be doing 3 minute reviews and thinking that is enough to review a game and it really isn't. GT have fallen in my opinion when it come to their reviews).

"The review seem to use clever tricks to give the impression of stupidity in the way it was built."

Yes. They sure are trying to trick you. Especially if you consider that Gametrailers.com is plastered with Absolution ads.

Damn. Oh well, I'll play it for myself and judge if it's good or not. Doubt that it will be bad by any means.

Seems like this game is best of preference seeing how the reviews are all over the place.

I have played it for 2 days now and it's by no means a 6.9 its more like a 8.5/9 out of 10

How IO turned Hitman around, from Absolution to World of Assassination

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.

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.
