Hitman: Contracts

[All-Night John]

Who's played it? Is it any good? I loved Hitman 2, but had to pass on Contracts when it was released due to lack of funds. I'll probably pick it up now, but was interested in opinions, first.

I heard someone say it was just like the first Hitman game. I haven't played the first one at all(its PC only) so I really have no idea what its about, but I do know in Contracts you start out in a mental institution and have to break out. You can try checking out some reviews to find out. But if your like me and love a good story does it matter if its considered an A+ game at all? I'm going to get it anyway to find out what happens even if it were to be a C game. I just hope the music is as great as it was in Hitman 2. That music was just awsome.

It is crap when compared to Hitman 2, the score is amazing though.

I played it. well the first level, I didnt know where I had to go, so I gave up.

It's good, like already stated, it's pretty much a remake of the first one for the PC...

I played like 6 levels on the PC version. Awesome game IMO. Except I killed everybody on the whole level to win. ;)

Theres another way to win? :razz:

Heh seriously though. I just hope in Contracts they fix the sneaking part of it. In 2 your supposed to sneak up on people to kill them, yet they detect you before you get close enough to use the fiber wire. Which really pisses me off since I try my best to sneak up on them and yet they "somehow" know I'm right behind them anyway. Not to mention they usually detect you before you can get within stabbing range as well.

I bought it a couple days after it came out, due to the fact that I was extremely excited about it.

Yes, it's a great game, although very similar to Hitman 2. The levels are easier in Contracts, which is a good thing IMO. The music is amazing, especially on most people's favorite level: "The Meat King's Party". It's a great game, and a big improvement over Silent Assassin. If you're a fan of stealth games, this is a must own.

And I hear there's a 4th in the making :D.

Yeah man, I had killed everybody on the map, then did the objectives. Takes a long time, but makes it a hella lot easier :P

I had no problems with stealth kills in Silent Assassin.

I was afraid they'd make it easier.
