    Hitman (Review as of second content pack) 0

    In an era of video gaming where popular franchises are seeing new games being pumped out on an annual or biennial basis, 2012 seems like a long time ago. It was late in 2012 when we last saw an entry into the Hitman series, with Hitman: Absolution. I still remember the feeling of anticipation leading up to the release of Absolution, after waiting over six years for the series’ newest addition. Sadly though, while it was a fine game, and one of the better ones to come out that year, it was...

    "Target Neutralized" 0

    HITMAN is a return to form for the series' roots, whilst keeping what made Hitman: Absolution fun to play - and adding necessary tweaks to make for the perfect experience in this international contract-killing series. Here is my review on IO Interactive's soft reboot to the long-running series, HITMAN:HITMAN Review (Xbox One)SynopsisHITMAN starts as a prequel to all of the mainline game's events. Starting in 1999, you take control of Agent 47 as he passes several examinations to join the ICA - a...

    Season one of ‘Hitman’ breathes new life into a faltering franchise 0

    For a long time, I would have described myself as a wayward Hitman fan. However, after finishing the first season of “Hitman” I could not be more excited for the future of the killer franchise.“Hitman” has the player globetrotting to various exotic locations including Italy, Bangkok and Japan. In these different locations, the player is tasked with taking out one or more targets and rewarded for doing it in the stealthiest of ways.My issue with previous “Hitman&rdqu...

    A good entry in the series albeit lightly flawed 0

    First and foremost let me mention that I don't like the release module used for this game, I don't think that a Hitman game should be released in an episodic format especially considering that it breaks immersion and pacing, and also that the consumer would be paying for an unfinished product is something that I personally tend to not support. As a result I refused to purchase the game until it was complete and I would only purchase it during a very reasonable sale, with all of this out of the ...

    Save Scum and See The World 2

    Oh No! I’ve found a game that preys on my perfectionism. Branching paths have been a part of my media consumption since my youth. Choose your own adventure books like The Cave of Time by Edward Packard were big in the Scholastic Book Sales program. Turn to page 17 if you choose this route or turn to page 37 if you’d rather do the alternative. There are probably mountains of books that are partially read at my parent’s house There’s so much to see here but the achievement...

    A game that fooled the world 0

    I can see it now, thousands of ‘em surrounding me, screaming and scratching at the pile of cars, on top of which I stand, alone in my truth. Their noises join to form a homogeneous hum that praises the newest Hitman game but I will continue to stand here, bravely screaming that they are all WRONG. Someone has to be the voice of reason and that burden is on me.Firstly, this game is still filled with game-breaking bugs, months after its release. The last target in a mission was a woman who g...

    This game started a bit rocky, but... 0

    It started a bit messy on the technical side of things (PC specifically, but consoles as well from what I heard), and still isn't perfect, but it's a REALLY FUN game!The episodic nature fits it better than any episodic game ever has achieved, that I can think of. The numerous challenges are great and keep me coming back to do everything I can in each level and unlock all the cool gear and options. I think the Elusive Targets are a fantastic idea and they're extra fun overall, but it was a big ...

    The best Hitman game to date. 0

    Hitman feels important to me when it comes to my hobby of playing games, (Hitman: Codename 47 was one of my favorite games growing up, alongside Half-Life, The Longest Journey and KotOR) and speaking as a Hitman fan this game feels like "the Hitman game I always wanted", especially with the missteps the franchise has taken along the way.Those missteps were good enough games, but they were bad Hitman games. And the best part is that it feels like the developers, IO Interactive, feel the same way....

    Slow burning, often hilarious, murder sandbox 0

    When I first purchased the game after Giant Bomb's GOTY discussions and played the tutorial and Paris map, I was moderately impressed. The game seemed fun enough, with neat challenges and a variety of ways to achieve them, but it didn't hold my attention long. I returned a while later to try to master the maps in advance of the Elusive Targets returning - as I unlocked better gear and new starting locations the maps began to really open up, with numerous funny bits of dialogue and environmental...
