Hitman: Blood Money

[Kazimierz]

I'm a big fan of the Hitman games, and i plan to pick up an XBOX360 very soon (to get the game, of course). I downloaded :eek: Blood Money, and have played it a bit. It's not bad, but controlling it with a keyboard and mouse is exceptionally lame. It looks pretty standard in the Hitman series, except you get money for successful missions, you can upgrade your weapons, and you can buy intel (hints...).

My little cousin who's about 12 actually writes Hitman stories on the Hitman official forums. He is so obsessed with that game that I can't even begin to tell you how sick of it I am.

played the demo on the 360. cool game but don't buy it man, rent it (just advice) i liked a lot of stuff about it but a lot of things annoyed me as well.
like:
the knife not sticking into things and not being reuseable
not being able to carry a shotty and dragunov at once. (one in each hand)
the first person mode sucks nuts
he can't thow a coin more than ten feet
a bit too linear
minor shit like that. other wise its very cool. and the reloading animations are the best i've seen in a while

No offense, but those are some pretty retarded complaints. I don't even know what you mean by the knife not sticking ino things, it would be pretty fucking gay if he were able to hold a shotty and a sniper at the same time (and look fucking stupid), first person always sucks nuts, have no idea what you mean about throwing a coin, and how can Hitman be linear? That's the whole selling point of the series, how open it is and how you can go about each mission however the fuck you want. If you are going by the marketplace demo, I wouldn't because I hear that it tells you everything you have to do because it's a gay tutorial. I love all Hitman games, but I'm too lazy to download the demo off the marketplace. I'll just wait a couple of days for the actual game.

fp sucks on all hitman games tho the models look like crap

I bought it today (for the 360) and it's pretty fucking nuts. The only thing I don't like is that if a mission frustrates you, you can't beat it by going in guns blazing (you CAN, its just that the notoriety system will fuck you up). It's still a kickass game though. My favorite in the series is the second game, let's see if this game can beat it.

you obviously dont have the skills. My friend bought pc version today, and i completed first 3 missions by just killing everyone i saw.

[Smoked86]

ok
ifffff you throw a kitchen knife into drywall it sticks, it doesn't bounce off
you can throw (like a wimp) a coin to distract people. (which is cool an all).
i mean linear not by method of killing or bypassing people, but by not being able to go places that could be easily gotten to.
oh the only reason i want to hold a snipe an shotty at the same time is to carry them both with me after i'm done.
my hitman would have a vast arsenal of many many many guns:)

one cool ass feature i liked was seeing headlines after the mission.

I bought this shit, and haven't played it after finishing the first two missions. Boring as hell.

[rand0m]

yea when realism outbalances fun its shit
