Heck yeah. Thanks for showing this. This holiday is packed with awesome western games. Dishonored, Borderlands 2, Hitman, Assassins Creed 3, and I feel like I'm missing something else awesome....oh yeah, FREAKING XCOM.

No more like strategy.

For example, your target is somewhere inside of a heavily-guarded mental institution. You don't know where your target is exactly. You only know what he looks like. You have to somehow get inside of the instituion, get passed all of the guards, kill the target, and get out alive.

The great thing about Hitman is there are many ways to achieve your mission: You could get a high-powered gun and burst through the building killing everyone who gets in your way; You can kill an officer, take his uniform and walk right into the building without being questioned; or you could go rogue and sneak inside the building without ever being seen - this would net you the most points/money.

And then there are these neat ways to kill your target. For example, if your target sniffs coccain, you could find the coccaine and insert poison inside of it. So, when your target sniffs the coccaine, he would die. But the authorities would never know he was murdered; they would think he got a bad dose of coccain. In this scenario, your kill would look like an accident. This would net you even more points/money. 

There are situations like this in every mission which makes the entire game hella fun.

If it comes to the Wii U then I'll get it.

I can't wait until hitman comes out, I always loved all the different ways you can go and complete the missions. But because of this game, whenever I see a bald white guy that looks like agent 47, I get a bit scared. It has happened before.

I'll have to give this series a look. Tell you what, I'll check to see if my local store has any copies of the PS2 games. Any suggestions on how to start playing this series, if I am lucky enough to be spoiled for choice?

They aren't really story connected. For quality, I'll say Blood Money (H4) > Silent Assassin (H2) > Contracts (H3).

If you think you may be turned off by outdated graphics/physics etc. Then just get Blood Money and skip out on the others. Because playing Silent Assassin can really feel uncomfortable if you have a hard time playing older games.

But if you think you can handle it, I say play all three in chronological order. If you only have room for one, then play Blood Money.

And if you have a 360, then you can probably get a 360 copy of Blood Money.

Similar for me, I struggle to play AC. So I won't be able to play this despite how much better it looks from Hitman 1 and 2 which I've seen a friend play before.

You like Uncharted, right?

Besides, you don't have to do much killing in this game. If you want, you can only kill the required targets for each killing. In fact, you don't even have to see the person die. You could just poison the target's food and walk away. When you're well out of proximity from the target, you'll receiev a prompt saying "target cleared." No blood!

Looks cool, but I hope I'm not forced to kill an innocents. I'm fine being an anti-hero but I don't like being a bad guy even if I'm not THE villain.
