Hitman

flavbot's Hitman (PC) review

The best Hitman game to date.

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. They recognize that it went weird for a bit, but they got the chance and had the guts to go back to what made Hitman good in the first place. And man what great job they did.

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...
