"Hitman GO contains several levels which are themed like cardboard games we used to play when we were little kids. Within each diorama you control a plastic version of Agent 47 and have to get him to a specific spot on the board by moving him across lines etched on the ground. Of course, you will have to contend with enemy puzzle pieces along the way. You can take them out by coming up from behind them or from their sides. You can also use items to distract foes, and later on, weapons and disguises. It’s all rather simple to figure out but mastering it is a whole other story."
VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "The stealth genre is one that some would argue doesn’t even exist – many titles include stealth elements, but actually fit into one of a number of other genres like action, platformer, or third-person shooter. Ever since the breakout success of the Metal Gear franchise (in particular Metal Gear Solid), though, the genre seems on much more stable footing and it demonstrated that you can have a veritable blockbuster on your hands relying only on stealth mechanics as the main gameplay element.
In recent years we’ve seen other things like Assassin’s Creed, Hitman and Splinter Cell continue to push the genre forward, although it still has somewhat limited appeal. Thankfully, the Vita has a healthy selection of stealth games available (and even more with backwards-compatibility), meaning if you’re looking to do some sneaking on the go then you’ll be well served with the console."
Square Enix just released the first episode of its series dedicated to the GO versions of Hitman, Tomb Raider / Lara Croft and Deus Ex.
Wishful thinking that they'd try to revive the series. Sort of annoying that a sequel is still 50/50.
All three critically-acclaimed titles – Hitman GO, Lara Croft GO and Deus Ex GO – are now available for the first time in one bundle.
Boring and repetitive
