Hitman also gives you plenty of latitude in when and how you use these implements of destruction. And you certainly can find all types of pistols, rifles and submachine guns in this game (along with sedatives, poisons, explosives, knives and a fiber-wire garrote). Locations range from a broken-down amusement park to a swank Las Vegas hotel to the Mardi Gras-filled streets of New Orleans.Īs you would imagine, guns are a staple in the assassin’s craft. In an open-ended stealth-friendly world, you devise a method to reach these heavily insulated figures using disguises, items at hand and the shadowy hideaways of the environment around you. While playing 12 different missions, you become this doomed “contractor” and must find a way to eliminate your targets-usually some underworld thug or villainous fat cat. Hitman is essentially a series of slayer-for-sale assignments and flashback scenes (from two years prior to present) that show us how the inscrutable Agent 47 meets his end. This euphony seems out of place in a game about a cloned super-assassin until the camera pulls back and shows us that the killer himself has been killed and is lying in a sun-dappled sanctuary surrounded by flowers and mourners. The sweet strains of a young boy singing “Ave Maria” usher us into Hitman: Blood Money.
