Darryl Liningtom from ITF Gaming writes: Developed by IO Interactive and published by Square Enix, Hitman: Absolution is the latest entry into the Hitman series to hit video game consoles worldwide. While it has been a while since we last had the opportunity to experience the intensity of Agent 47’s escapades, does Hitman: Absolution live up to previous titles in the series? Or does it simply deserve a slow painful assassination, which may involve sleeping pills, a rather large crate and a desert filled with some rather hungry vultures? Well let’s find out!
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.
