Here's 17 Minutes of Hitman: Absolution Gameplay With Commentary from IO Interactive

Hitman Blood Money is horribly underrated.

Wow, super impressive. Game looks awesome but how many levels could there be if they're all so detailed?

Also, some weird logic: The first target is on a phone, but the person at the other end thinks nothing of their choking death or the line going dead. The third target is crushed by a car in the shop, but the cops don't think it's weird that a mechanic walks out?

Hate to nitpick, but they're clearly trying hard to make these systems feel "real," and the realer the systems seem, the more frustrating it is as a player to run into Game Walls, so to speak.

Holy crap, this looks great.

I ain't gonna watch this since I'm already disappointed in myself for spoiling the entire Chinatown mission. But the resounding positivity coming from the comments is all I need to see!

They've really got to do something about the costume changes - it was janky in the previous games, but they have a chance to remedy that. I'd settle for a MGS4-esque active camo effect that changes your suit to their suit, even if it doesn't really make sense within the game world. Of all current games, Hitman is one of the most game-y, so it could make something like that work.

Also, I totally love the "instinct shooting" that's been featured in a few games before, like Splinter Cell, but while it looks cool and makes you feel powerful, it's basically a win button that makes the game too easy and goes against the puzzle approach of Hitman. I guess it's an option I won't be using.

this game looks soooooo badass

I got so caught up watching this video that I was shocked when it ended. This looks incredible!

Faith restored.

Looks really good, I hope most of the levels are open world like this.

Holy hell this looks good. Back on board.

As a Hitman fan i'm loving this.

Will be fun trying to Silent Assassin this stuff on Purist.

Preordered.

sweet cant wait :) it seems to be a dramatic change from bloodmoney

I've never played a hitman game, but this looks like a lot of fun.

My god, they've done it. I was convinced by their Chinatown walkthrough, but with all the disguises, open levels, and traps here I'm sold!

I'm going to avoid watching this. I'm pretty set on getting the game so I'd rather not spoil anything for myself.

must.....resiste...the urge to watch........aaaaaaaaaaah *breaks computer*

Cue the outrage of the so-called Hitman "fanbase" - I AM OUTRAGED THAT IO DECIDED TO MAKE A NEW GAME, RABBLE RABBLE etc.

Alright, I'm excited again. Stop messing with my feelings IO.

This gameplay video, as well as the inclusion of Purist mode, shows me that the devs are committed to making a good Hitman game as well as addressing the common complains people had about it. I will get this.

I know it's in the interest of momentum to have 47 automatically switch clothing like that, but considering how far they appear to be going with all these little details, It feels outdated and kind of jarring. Even if they just did a quick fade out, fade in when changing disguises, I think it would preserve some the immersion without hurting the gameplay too much.

Oh no guys, remember, how that nuns trailer ruined the game, how it's SO awful. Man that marketing trailer oh no .. oh ...oh no so bad.. game is so bad where is the stealth... they ruined Hitman..

Looks great.

Seems pretty great...lots of options and ways to 'come back' from mistakes. I picked up Blood Money recently and the fail states are so darn absolute, it gets kind of frustrating.

I will watch this. I will.

"He's not a target, we need to kidnap him" 47 does seem to think otherwise, judging by the last seconds.

Whenever I see stuff about the Nuns, I cringe. Whenever they show playthroughs of missions, I can't wait to get my hands on it. Hopefully there won't be a lot of the gun nuns in the game.

17 minutes for a pretty imperfect play though seems solid. I cant to take ours to figure out how to do the missions on silent assassin.

Looks freaking awesome. Love the music after he does his instinct kills, so ominous!

This looks fantastic!

Looks great. Can't wait to get my hands on this when it arrives this fall.

Now stop bitching about the nuns!

Awesome... this definitely still looks like a Hitman game. Can't wait.

17 minutes? I hope its more stealth than action.

Indeed a stealth run of absolutely awesomeness. Best Hitman Absolution so far!!

Supplemental. it is a pre-beta and game play looks great just at that.

Nice!
