Hitman: Absolution

Re: Hitman: Absolution

I picked this up yesterday and I've played an hour or so both last night and tonight after my nightly few hours of Battlefield with the OS crew.

It's really difficult and I'm playing on hard, but I'm enjoying it so far. 11/46 achievements just through the first three "chapters" ? That's crazy, but I'm sure the rest are tough to get.

I'm not saying the games are the same, but the control, feel, and difficulty remind me a lot of Max Payne 3, which was also a phenomenal game.

It's going to take me a while, but I see this staying in my rotation until it's completed.

Re: Hitman: Absolution

I'm a few missions into Part II and just got to the point where

Spoiler

You eliminate Lenny's crew plotting to turn on him. I got past that and I'm now in the next section where you're having to kill more of his crew.

The story seems to be pretty long for a modern day SP game. Are there really 20 missions ? The menu says I'm 9/20. I didn't know how accurate that was.

I've started to learn the game better and I have the controls down. I also seem to be getting more creative with how I approach things and having better natural instincts as to which direction I should go. When I first got into the game, I was constantly having to get out of confrontations.. lol.

The game is a little quirky, but overall I'm enjoying it. I was never a big Hitman fan in the past.

It's $12 at Best Buy right now:

I loved the last few Hitman games.
I stayed away from this one because everyone was saying it was so linear and you could only kill your mark in 1 or 2 ways.

But for $12, I might have to jump on this.
