man, I enjoy watching these, but Vinny literally running in circles after executing Royce SUPERBLY is terrifying.

Amazing to see Vinny turn from a crazed madman in earlier levels, to a stealthy, calculated assassin in that final section.

Also I’m curious if Vinnys color blindness prevents him from seeing the red targets in Hitman vision because I’ve noticed he never uses it.

Gettin' spicy helped Brad out in a lot, especially in Mendoza. That was about the ice coldest run he's completed! Real delight to watch.

To Parrot some others here, a full WORLD OF ASSASSINATION trilogy of this series would be ace.

These are golden. I was watching some old Hitsmas and dang, H3 does look sharper than the first game - but you guys should revisit the Hitman 2K16 maps for another round of the Hitmazing Race. Especially as y'all know Paris and Sapienza so damn well at this point.

Vinny is a total lunatic at these games. But goddamn, when the chips are down, like they were on that train, he knows how to get methodical. And kudos to Brad for the amazing comeback in the winery level.

Amazing lol.

I would love it if Vinny and Brad (or whoever) could continue this. Maybe have open submissions for contract maps, and then have the community go through them each week or month to kind of "upvote" the ones that are good and follow some basic guidelines. Then string two or three of those custom contracts together into an episode... I'd love to see it.

This was an absolute hoot, I've been racing alongside y'all and it's been so much fun, really gets me out of my 'must silent assassin all the time always' mindset and trying some stuff in this game I never would otherwise. Mark me down as another who'd absolutely love a full trilogy runthrough.

I actually really enjoy the train level. There are very creative ways you can avoid 95% of the people and make it through super quick. I know most people don't like this level though.

@brad The auto saves aren't random, when you picked up the fuse and used it to blind all those guards it autosaves. Also, the riot gear gives you a little boost of durability.

Edit: RIP Helmut, that was such an unnecessary, yet amazing kill.

Jumping on the bandwagon to say I absolutely adored this two parter and would be keen on more - whether that's re-running the same maps to improve times, or playing earlier story missions or custom missions, or bringing in new challengers. More, please, it's great.

I don’t think we’ve seen Vinny and the Hitman in the same place.

We need to check out the back of Vinny’s head.

More of this. The one by one sprints for the older maps, marathon of all three individually and then when you're done fucking around y'all should race the whole trilogy. Call it a triathlon.

There are two types of Hitman players in the Carpathian Mountains.

Edit: Looks like Kruger should've worn a helmut.

Vinny's refusal to use Hitman vision or the map seems like a real hinderance at times lol

Anyone else doing this at home too? My personal best in Dubai is 2:09 minutes. I could probably do maybe a minute or less now that I unlocked the elevator exit.

Also, I would love to see this as a regular feature.

FWIW the shortballer is NOT the same gun. It has slightly better aim than the standard version.
