Hitman Blood Money (PS2)

Advantages: A fantastic, stealth game
Disadvantages: A lot of trial and error, and also has slow restarts

The next Hitman game of the PS2 has arrived, and it beats all the previous ones easily. Even though some will see it as a sick game, they will not be able to deny that it is a brilliant one. The bald Hitman is on his final journey on the PS2, and is the best one he has ever been on. Playing this game can teach you the skills of patience, the skill of planning ahead and delaying pressure. Waiting for just the right moment to strike. If it wasn't ...
...Interactive have taken the brilliant Hitman Contracts, and have listened to all the criticism, taken these on board, and fixed them, to create the perfect Hitman experience. Story So, you are still agent 47, the bald Hitman, and you work for 'The Agency', going around the World doing 'jobs' for hefty amounts of money.

Advantages: Great gameplay, good levels and customisable weapons
Disadvantages: Trigger happy AI

...a long line of great hitman games and features some great tweaks that really make gameplay alot more entertaining and fufilling. The game continues the same basic premise as the previous games - kill some evil drug selling and/or mass murdering and/or arms dealing evil person by sneaking past his small army of body guards and garroting him with a fibre wire, and to that extent not much has changed from the previous games - you still have to kill ...
...look like an accident. Hitman blood money completly sets its self appart from the previous games in many ways but one of the most outstanding and funnest is the new customisable weapons. The customisable weapon selection gives you the option to customise a basic selection of weaponary, this is made up of a pair of AMT Hardballers, a Walther WA2000 sniper rifle, a SPAS 12 shotgun and the classic M16 assult rifle. It lets you use money from the hits ... Read review

Disadvantages: Level has to load every time you restart, lots of practise and paitence needed!

...in the best of the hitman titles ever which is a relief after Hitman: contracts which didnt work as well as the previous game Hitman 2: silent assassin. There are over 10 missions which all are very good and you will have fun replaying them to find out different ways to perform the hit. There are four modes of difficultly so even if you are new to the series you can get into the game. 47 has learned a few new moves such as disarming an enemy, head ...
...shove. This may sound silly but this allows you to push people over edges to seem like an accident rather than a hit and you can also push people down stairs. In each mission you have at least one target to kill. The idea is to minimise deaths and kill the target silently and without anyone else knowing. This will take alot of practice to find your way around the levels and to find the ideal way to assassinate the target. For example on the 3rd mission ... Read review

Advantages: Silent hit or mass slaughter, its your choice !
Disadvantages: Leaves you wanting more contracts, hahaha.

...of you new to the hitman series, agent 47 is himself a clone creation struggling to find his place in the world, but you need to indulge in the previous titles to really enjoy 47s journey from his creation to his urban legend status he carries by the time of blood money) and seems to hold a personal grudge against 47. He tells this story to a journalist, however Caynes version of events always seem to differ somewhat to actually what transpires. ...
...The playability factor of the Hitman games has always been so high because of one thing, Choice. And choice is what Blood Money has in abundance. Im not just referring to what weapons 47 can utilise, and there are plenty to unearth, im talking primarily about HOW you approach the level. For example, take 'Curtains Down', set in Paris. I COULD take the stealth approach, sneaking into the gents, wait for a workman to come and take a leak, knock him ... Read review

Advantages: Good graphics
Disadvantages: Hard to complete

...be considered new to the Hitman scene. After getting the demo on a demo disc, I decided to give it a whirl. The first thing I noticed was how 'clean' 47 looks. It may just be that I'm used to seeing him in Codename 47, I'm not sure - but what I am sure of, is, it looks stunning! The first level, like the demo level, is a tutorial. As you progress you get objectives on the top of the screen telling you exactly what to do next. I found this extremely ...
...aware. Just like the previous Hitman games, you 'don numerous amounts of suits to get around undetected into restricted areas and such. One of the newest additions to the Hitman genre, is 'accidental' deaths. 'Accidents', as its name would imply, are death that the police would see as 'accidental'. These include shoving someone off a balcony ('suicide'), blowing up winches, causing chandeliers to fall on the hapless victim ('accident'). The thing ... Read review
