Too much focus on casual gamers and action rather than stealth

@BlmThug

Hey hey hey! I resent that comment of yours.

Jokes aside, they haven't showed the game properly yet. Wait til E3 or autumn before criticizing it.

ShabbaRanks5052d ago

@aCasualGamer you’re 100% right. And Io interactive has always released trailers with a lot of action. But in the end, when you actually played the game there was always the stealth or more action orientated approach.

Occasionally some missions forced you to forget about stealth like the requiem mission in Blood money. But in the end Hitman games are 90% stealth, unless you didn’t care about that lovely silent assassin rating :P

SPAM-FRITTER-1235052d ago

agreed. it seems as if they have done to hitman what conviction was to splinter cell.

personman...telling someone to shut up because of there opinion makes me think your one them casual gamers thug mentioned.

humbleopinion5052d ago

At least they give you the option to carry get rid of the bodies. As much as I liked Conviction I really missed that feature in the game.

bauer0075052d ago

Look at EVERY blood money trailer! Action as well you doughnut, they show off action in trailers.....

deep_fried_bum_cake5052d ago

A game like this is played as stealthily or non stealthily as the person playing makes it. This is a trailer, I've said it before and I'll say it again, trailers are made to show of the action in these types of games as well as the stealth.

Looks good

Shame this game didn't get a well deserved Collectors Edition

...

Before you mention the Professional Edition, that is NOT a CE, it's a Limited Edition with DLC and a small artbook.

gtxgamer25052d ago

Wow, that looks amazing! this will be the first Hitman game ive ever played!

Adexus5052d ago

How IO turned Hitman around, from Absolution to World of Assassination

When Hitman 3 recently changed its name to Hitman World of Assassination, fans had no idea how meaningful the moment was. On the outside it looked like a simple thing: Hitman 3 would now be known by this name and include levels from Hitman 2 and 3 - the trilogy would all be in one place. But on the inside, at IO Interactive, much more was going on.

You mean destroyed it with this tethered single-player campaign BS... And only the first few levels of the third modern game were on the disc! I'll never support this crap at any price-point! They've lost me as a customer.

Hitman is, and has been, a remarkable series developed by some of the best. Some are better than others, but every Hitman is challenging and fun.

Sure, there have been some stumbles and fumbles, but always in pursuit of the perfect Hitman game. The most recent trilogy is a masterclass in level design.
