This Hitman: Absolution Trailer Discusses the Art of the Kill

If killing is an art, then I'll be playing as Jackson Pollock. Lots of splatter, little discernible meaning.

Little discernible meaning?! Alex, I never knew you to be such a plebeian.

I despise yo...oh wait I already have the stupid quest. Well done, keep doing that

Oh, there's a new Hitman coming out?

I think I'm finally ok with hearing the Inception horns again.

Game looks great as it always did.

Get out of that rock you've been hiding under for the past two years.

Is David Bateson voicing Agent 47? Because if he isn't, then it's a damn shame because to me, there can be only one Voice Actor for 47, much like how Rockstar nearly replaced James McCaffrey as Max Payne's Voice Actor. But they came around, they usually do

@Hameyadea:

They actually wanted to replace him but due to negative reactions they hired him again. At least I think I heard that somewhere

I don't care what Patrick and Ryan say..I play these games like a crazy person in search of a bigger headline... Kitchen Knife massacres all day

@The_Ruiner: this is gonna be fun

Video doesn't load for me for some reason.

Hitman and Assassin's Creed 3 are my top two most anticipated games this fall. Can't wait to cut dudes.

Posted by whitespider

This game is towards the top of my top 20 most anticipated games coming out this year list. Dishonoured is literally AT the top.

Assassins creed 3 on the other hand has burnt me recently, so I won't put any stake in AC3 until it proves itself to be different enough to feel semi-fresh.

Perhaps my favorite subtitle of all time. Well done!

Looking forward to this!

I'm looking forward to this game. Been ages since played a good stealth game.

Posted by Winternet

Why doesn't Mr. Navarro write more articles? Dude, should have his own premium feature also.

Impressive trailer. Getting caught is usually the bane of stealth games, even good ones. I love the guy telling you to stop and drop instead of instantly opening fire.

just looked it up and yes he'll be returning, which is great news.

Looking pretty good.

So I saw that 18 minute walkthrough of "Contracts" mode here, and got interested in the series. Decided to try one out. For anyone's information, Gamersgate is having a weekly special with all the Hitman games down to $2-3. It's pretty dang good. They're $10 each on Steam at the moment. They also have weekly deals on the Elder Scrolls games, Tower Defense titles like Sanctum, and some other stuff. Not enough people support non-Steam stores. It's a shame. A lot of places also have great deals, like GOG.com, and allow you to purchase and download games without requiring an intrusive application (I'm not a fan of the actual Steam desktop program. It's a bit of a CPU hog...) .

Hey, this is a well done trailer for once. Shows off the things that people actually like about playing Hitman. Good show. :)

BWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG

I'd prefer to see him smile while he blows people up. Can't he try to enjoy himself while he's working?

Posted by Dredlockz

If you're caught, surrounded and dead, only way out is to F7

Hearing David Bateson as 47 again would be awesome, although 47 is more of a do-er than a talker

Posted by MeatSim

I usually do the guns blazing approach on a 2nd playthrough of the levels for fun.

That music at the end seals the deal for me

Posted by AhmadMetallic

It's not everyday that a trailer immediately puts itself on my favorite trailers list. Holy shit that piece of video was flawless.

In other words, WHY ISN'T THE GAME OUT YETTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT???!!?!?!?!?!?!?!1111345325?!?!?!?!?!

Posted by Diachron

Can't wait.. This Fall/Winter is going to be impossible to keep up with.

Posted by Dark_Lord_Spam

I feel like more AI should call 47 out on his constantly super-grim demeanor. Like at the rave scene at the end of this: "Hey dude, loosen the fuck up and have a beer, it's a party."

He used to have the burning question mailbag and his weekly rant during the gamespot days

Sure, alongside the other stuff with the rest of the crew. Now he's on the east coast so no such luck. But, still, he could have some premium feature from his apartment as has Jeff and now Patrick too.
