Hitman Blood Money (Demo)

I really like Requiem, but there's only so much you can do. I guess my favourite overal is A New Life or Till Death Do Us Part.

In terms of the best storyline to follow, Till Death has got to be it: You can dress up as the vicar, ring the bell, take the ceremony etc. Makes playing the mission properly fun.

 

[El Gigante]

Really? You can dress up as the vicar? I didn't know that, i'll have to try it out

Those of you who have got the game, what are your favourite levels? I would have to say mine is 'curtains down'. I like it because there's lots of cool stuff you can do, and plenty of oppurtunities for 'accidents'

"A House of Cards"... maybe because its the only level you can really use the sniper rifle. "The Murder of Crows" was an awesome level too, even if all those NPC's killed my video card.

 

[El Gigante]

It's a shame you hardly get to use the sniper rifle, because it's really cool. To be honest you don't really need to use any guns, the fibre wire and a bit of shoving is all you need really.

 

[donbenni]

Shoving is fantastic, best new thing to be included i reckon 👍 If you're standing behind someone and push them, if they hit their head on a hard object (toilet, sink, banister etc.) it knocks them out. If you're following someone down some stairs you can push them and they tumble to their death.

Check out this crazy guy from the Hitman Forums. He's worked out the quickest way to complete each level on Pro getting Silent Assassin rating. Here he is completing Curtains Down in 36 seconds (contains possible spoilers):

Yeah it's really cool how when you shove someone they can hit their head on something, or trip and fall over a railing.

36 seconds though, i mean, wow!

Well I finally got the game and I must say its awesome, this is the only Hitman that is better than the first IMO. 👍

So may extra cool things you can do that I keep discovering.

 

[El Gigante]

I think it's the best Hitman game for sure. It's definitley more mainstream (Contracts was a bit weird to be honest) and i like the story, plus the graphcis and physics are a lot better. So i'd say to anyone thinking about buying this game, it's worth it so you should get it.

 

[donbenni]

Yep, definitely the best since the first and yes Contracts is weird, i don't play it anymore.

The physics are "over the top", but they're along the right lines for realism and pretty amusing. Upgrade the Silverballer with the long slide and magnum bullets and aim for the head - you can get people doing cartwheels

 

[El Gigante]

Damn, i haven't touched the magnum bullets yet, i need to try them out. What does the long slide actually do then?

 

[Lino]

Bought the game a couple of days ago for $39.99. Best $40 I have spent in a while! Great game. Never really played all the other ones, but this is just fun!

 

[El Gigante]

I've completed it on expert now, gonna try it on pro. It's gonna be tough with no saves

 

[F1GTR]

Installing the game right now . I have the PS2 version but I couldn't stand the blurry-ness.

 

[El Gigante]

It's worth it, the PC version looks gorgeous

 

[Jay]

I am still yet to do the final mission, I rushed the second to last () cause I got alittle bored of it. Soon I will redo the second to last and then finish the game, then restart.

*Please no spoilers about what happens at the end*

 

[Jay]

Well since that last post over a month ago I did finish the game, the mission I thought that was last wasn't.

Just recently my nephew and myself have been playing it quite a bit, I just started playing through it again and I must say I am finding many new things that I never did the first time around!

Like for example on the mission "New life" (the daytime suburban one) the girl that has the microfilm as a necklace you can kill while she is swimming in the pool by shooting out the glass above her, it drops on her and she dies.

Aswell as that secret room up on the top level in the mission "Curtains down" and the secret button in the mission "Till death do us part".
