the only thing I hate about this game, is that it more like an avoid guards game than a stealth game dozingoff.gif

even though Deus Ex HR is not a stealth game but it's more better than this

Absolution does a great job at steering away from almost everything that made previous Hitman games so great.

 

For those of you who have played this abomination of a game, please try Hitman Blood money or Hitman 2.

Bought the HD collection to recollect old memories, can't get passed Anathema using stealth, and it's on the easiest setting.

 

Can't remember it being this difficult.

Bought this recently and haven't had this much fun with a game for a long time.

 

Only up to the 4th or 5th mission, but really loving it.

 

Most of the time I'm stealthy, but every now and then I decide "f*ck it" and just Rambo it up.

 

Good times being had.

Yeah, I replayed Absolution this past weekend. Instead of points and stealth.. I went all batsh*t crazy and killed everything.. civilians too.

I played some Absolution when it was free for PS+ members on PS3. Still have it. I tried to complete it with stealth and disguises, but at some points it's really hard and I had to restart many times.

 

Played it on Normal mode.

I have this from Lovefilm and I'm really enjoying it. I might buy it as it seems to have lots of replayability.

Really is, there is so many different ways to approach each scenario. I need to get back on this game, i just got to the bit where you kills wades men in China town. And i dressed up in a mascot costume to escape.

In that mission there's a great way to kill one of the guys.

 

One of the guys goes down to a guarded basement to talk to a policeman about buying guns. The policeman is supposed to have a file to give to the guy too. You can get into that basement via a ventilation shaft and steal the file. When they meet the guy asks for the file and when the policeman can't find it he takes out his gun but isn't fast enough and gets killed.

That's what makes Hitman so unique.

bit of a bump.

 

so I just got the game recently, and I'm really enjoying it so far, I've only got through 2 of the missions so far and I'm already enjoying the game, I really don't understand the hate for this game.

 

the stealth is quite awesome but most of the disguises are kinda useless since the guards spot you easily, there are so many different ways to approach a mission like in the chinatown mission, you can tap the car alarm and make the king rush up and then throw a bomb and detonate(before he comes) and boom he's dead, the only disadvantage is that you have to kill a hell lot of guards before rushing to the exit. So I just tapped the car alarm and when he came and stopped moaning or whatever I quickly and silently went up and silently killed him, hid up the body and walked to the exit, the guards did not know a thing.

 

just started the hotel mission, but I really liked the first mission the mansion one, it had a good atmosphere and it was just awesome to play through it, chinatown not so much but still cool.

In chinatown i worked out the King would always go to a sushi stand right near the exit, so i killed the worker, stole his uniform and waited for the King to come, then i threw a knife in his face. Silent, deadly, stealthy. Plus i got a nice achievement for getting a throwing knife kill. Then i took the uniform off and strolled to the exit undetected.

nice! I must check that out.

 

btw have you noticed that if wear another uniform the guards get suspcious? once I killed the King took another guards uniform and walked out and they started becoming suspcious, switched back to my old suit and they didn't bother me at all, kinda weird.

Its not weird, the detecting system in the game sucked.

yeah I was about to say that and it is weird. I mean they can spot you in a different suit but they can't in the default, that was the only thing that let me down.

So they ARE sticking to their word of better games.

I really don't care for a game's age, if it's awesome, it's awesome.

In Germany we got Metro 2033 in February, cause Dead Island is banned over here.

So it was one of the few good games so far.

Pretty hilarious how cheap this game goes these days as well as how long it has been out and now it is free. That is a pretty major indication people were pretty pissed off with it. As was I.

 

I felt f*cking lied to.

 

But still, if you take it as a stealth shooter in linear levels. It ain't too bad, but they still shat all over everything that made a Hitman game good. Like, everything.

Thankfully Hitman 6 will be a return to form.

f*ck Microsoft and their dumbass lame brain people who put this game for free. They had that f*cking sale with Hitman Absolution for ten bucks. Then they turn around and f*cking make the game for free. I could have used my ten bucks on something else, but I decided since I love hitman so much since I played the first two 7 years ago, that I would buy it. This is getting really annoying because it's almost like you can't buy any game on Microsh*ts store because they'll turn around and make it into a sale or make it free. Same for sleeping dogs. They had the sale and then they made it free like a month later! They're just exploiting us for our cash and then laugh at our faces while they make 10 or 20 dollars games free from their sales and specials thinking they got away with highway f*cking robbery. Not again Microsoft. I'm done with Xbox Live.

That's a very ...Peculiar reason to have been using Xbox Live.

No need to get aggro, atleast it's free.. can't complain there. Better than the first free games they were releasing, that's for sure.

 

I'd like to see some older Xbox Platinum hits released for free like the original Army of Two, my local GameStop never has a copy for it and I was a fool to sell it years back.
