Hey, I was wondering if anyone else likes the hitman series. I got hitman 1 and hitman 2, althought i thought hitman 1 was a bit crappy. (i played hitman 2 before hitman 1, thought hitman 1 was like hitman 2 but it sucked :( )

I also am wondering why hitman contracts isnt still in the stores. It only lasted a couple of months, some games have lasted in a store for over a year.

Oh yeah, I'd also like this to be a general discussion place, not a LOCKED thread like my other topic. So, dont add any useless comments and if you dont know what im talking about, go to the kotor topic.

i played a bit of Hitman 2... i like how it plays sorta like MGS, like you can either be extremely stealthy or shoot anything that moves.

Yeah, but you get bonus weapons for being the "silent assassin". Its also funner killing everyone stealthy. Theres really no point in killing everyone straight on. Then that'd be like a fps, and those are boring. No strategy involved.

::gawks at last statement::
But I won't go there...

I'm not the biggest fan of the Hitman series. Sure, it had its highs, but it had some serious design flaws that just seemed too obvious to overlook.

Of course, I'm not saying its the best game ever. Actually, it sucks compared to alot of games that i like, but its still a pretty good game, and was worth the money to buy. (knights of the old republic is waaaaay better!!! Go kotor!)

The reason i dont really like thehitman games as much as others is cause you can utilize the gameplay like an fps, which sux. ;)

But, its still a great game.

Aaaaamen, brutha.

Sorry, never played Hitman, but if Wisey's comparison is correct I can't say I'm anxious to do so.

But...it is a good game, don't get me wrong. I'm not saying i didnt like it or anything, its just the way you play it. You can choose to be the madman that kills everything in sight and get no stealth, or you can be the highly stealthy cool guy! Plus, they got the best weapon: fiber wire! Well, if that doesnt appeal to you, i guess you could be happier without the game.

But the great thing about the stealthy way is, its more strategy. Oh well, I guess this topic isn't really a success. Theres no real hitman fans out there. :(

Lol. That was a good one selfish. Just how did you happen to stumble upon that link anyway.(just curious) Ach. It does bring up a good point though. The limited save files sux. Thats the most degrading aspect of the game in my view.

I can't say I like Hitman. I played the original and Hitman 2, and was appalled. A guard can unload an Uzi clip and the guys in the next room won't hear him, but if you pull out your fibrecord and begin sneaking up on someone, he screams bloody murder--and his screams penetrate the door his bullets' reports didn't.

AI problems result in a "Bad Game Designer, No Twinkie!".

On another note, if you haven't played MGS3, DO SO NOW. It involves you going nuts with a fork. A fork. Classic Gaming Moment: I snuck up on a guard without any camo, doing the Rambo thing. I put him in a headlock, using my fork as a close-quarters combat weapon. I stabbed his sorry lame guard arse with the fork, then proceeded to use his body as bait to blast his friends with a shotgun.

Booya.

I gotta admit, Hitman has gotten old, but was once fun! :)

Btw, whats that one game you speak of? It sounds fun. Putting up a link where i could get it or telling the full name of the game would help. :)
