Playdate: The Hitmazing Race

lovely

I bought Hitman 3 on launch day. Still haven't beaten the first level. Having more fun watching people play it than actually playing it.

Please, please keep doing this with marathon rules, Hitman 1 & 2 levels, anything. It's so good

Damn good day for streams

Really close to subscribe again just for all the hitman content!

Vinny has some weird video issues for me.

YEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSS!

I was hoping for something like this. Thanks guys.

I LOVE this idea!! I was thinking before that speedrun races would be fun to watch from the GB crew. Hitman is an obvious choice.

I love how they go spicy to their own detriment. In Dartmore you can be quiet, nab that detective's outfit then you can go just about anywhere.

@baillie: Pretty sure it's due to packet loss, but the problem is a bit tricky to troubleshoot the way we're sending these feeds to Jan.

Was waiting for more Vinny speedrunning Hitman, does not disappoint!

@baillie:Ditto, half the screen will glitch out for a second or two.

YES. Inject the Hitman Trilogy % speedrun race directly into my veins.

I am a fan of this feature.

It's so dumb, I love it.

I like that Vinny looked at a game about being patient, crafty, and taking things slow, then decided "this, this is the one I will speedrun."

Loved this, very fun time.

Total Times:

Brad: 1hr 05min 47sec

Vinny: 50min 35sec

I'm enjoying this battle of speed vs. technique. Looking forward to next week!

"History's Greatest Monster" Vinny Caravella vs Brad "The Menace" Shoemaker

FIGHT!

Great stream. Thanks, guys!

this was so fun to watch.

What an absolute delight.

what a clash of playing styles haha

next time they should isolate game audio to one stream at a time if possible

@stubburns: thanks for doing the math so I didn't have to

Vinny was born in the world of assassination, Brad merely adopted it

This is so cool!!! Please do this until you are tired of it I will take as much as I can get

Hitman + GB = You love to see it

Havn't even watched this yet and i want more

Brad had such a great start in Berlin going for the agent up top and getting his covert SMG. But then he made the mistake of running all the way back down and never using that gun. You can pick off four of the agents with it unnoticed right from that general high ground area he got it from.

Edit: Okay, maybe just three. It's hard to land a killing shot on the sniper from there.

Would love more of these!

It's okay, you don't have to reference Fine CBS Properties (tm) anymore :)

Brad thinks too much and acts too slow.

I enjoyed that second one, Brad. Interesting to see the plot.

That lady did seem unpleasant.

While it's the third game and GB crew are still clueless about some mechanics like what being compromised means, these videos are extremely enjoyable nonetheless! Keep em coming!

(all targets from Paris to Carpathian Mountains with all the DLCs and Special Assignments go go go! or maybe some Escalation races?)

Another idea: pick one level that is well known to all participants and see who can get Silent Assassin / Suit Only faster.

This is the best series in a long time, brilliant invention

Thank you!

seconds please!

@brad's way of playing pays off in Berlin - but I bet if they played the first two maps again he would be even better.

I'd love to see you guys take on the escalations.

This video rules. Good dumb fun.

When I started this, I thought they were playing this so much that they were good enough to do a SASO run or something.

Nope!

It was way better than that

Brad choosing to do a story mission while he's supposing to speedrun the level surprised me quite a bit. I feel for him, he has too much anxiety about acting quickly and doesn't know the maps well yet it seems, you can definitely get away with a lot in hitman when you know how but you have to be willing to push against the limits of the systems to get there. I hope he'll get crazier in future videos!

ALL DAY UNDERTAKING

Well I am super excited to see this

THIS is what I come to GiantBomb for =)

"All day undertaking" could be a great extralife marathon...just sayin...

Great feature. I concur with everyone else that they should try doing escalations on a smaller map.

Please continue to do this and any other dumb hitman idea you have, it’s so much fun to watch!

Brad trying to find the elevator while standing next to the elevator TWICE is one of the funniest and most frustrating things I've ever experienced.

It would be kinda fun if you get some amount of time shaved off for every star you get in the final rating.

Jan - you sexy MF. Incredible production value.

”No one can resist the siren call of the coin.”

lol

Excellent video, would love to see more like this. Great fun.

Thank you guys! Very happy here - lockdown antidote!
