Hitman : Blood Money


Agent 47's revenge is complete as is Hitman : Blood Money on normal. Overall an excellent experience, it is very much a puzzle game when played correctly and once I understood that my enjoyment increased massively. As the tutorial suggested the controls were much easier to use and everything was much more forgiving that I remember with previous Hitman titles.

The addition of "accident" related deaths is very well executed, I particulay enjoyed pushing people out of windows etc. It did get quite a bit harder later on and the last few levels were marred by my general rubbishness, so some gun fights were unavoidable. I will go back and try to play them as intended.

Hitman : Blood Money

The Hitman saga has always been a story of love / hate with me. I love the idea (come on who doesn't want to be a Hitman) but hated the slow pace and stealthy-ness required so games usually boiled down to firefights. However with this new Hitman game they have introduced numerous improvements and more importantly they have simplified the controls.

A quick play through the tutorial level proved a very enjoyable experience. I was soon moving around the level like a professional killer should, the fact that it looks great too means I looking forward to spending more time with this title.

Hitman : Blood Money

Agent 47 is back and this time he's paid in cold, hard cash. How the money is spent will affect his passage through the game and the weapons at his disposal, resulting in a unique gameplay experience for each player. Powered by a new version of IO-Interactive's stunning Glacier engine, Hitman: Blood Money will deliver the most brutal and realistic simulation of the life of a merciless assassin.

In Hitman: Blood Money, Agent 47 finds himself in the midst of a war between two rival contract agencies. When assassins from his contract agency, the ICA, are systematically eliminated in a series of hits, it seems a larger, more powerful agency has entered the fray. Suddenly, Agent 47 loses contact with the ICA. Sensing that he may be the next target, he travels to America where he attempts to carry on with business as usual.
