  • Hitman 2 PC: "When Your Name's 47...Everyone's Got Your Number."

    Oct 22 '02
    Pros: Wide variety of weapons, nice graphics.
    Cons: Music kinda bland, AI not up to snuff.

    Summary: Way, wayyyyy back in the day, you know like, right around the time Final Fantasy 9 got released, there was a little game Eidos put out called Hitman: Codename 47. It played kinda similar to Deus Ex, but you weren't allowed to just go...

  • A shooter that values brains over brawn.

    Jul 12 '07
    Pros: Great atmosphere. Ratchets up the tension and keeps you glued.
    Cons: Inconsistent AI, a few annoyingly difficult levels.

    Summary: With the "Hitman" series of games, Eidos created an intriguing new twist to the old shooter formula as well as one of the most striking lead characters to come along in quite a while. The first title was released to positive critical notice, but ...

  • Hitman 2: Could’ve Been Great, But Only Turned Out Good

    Aug 04 '04
    Pros: Unique emphasis on stealth and deception.
    Cons: Can get through the game just by killing everybody. Boring plot.

    Summary: If you’re as cheap as I am, when Hitman 3 came out, you checked out the reviews for Hitman 2 to see if you could get a good cheap game. Actually, I had this game before Hitman Contracts came out, but it is a good game and delivers a lot of bang for the ...

  • the cover is even cool :D

    Jun 12 '03
    Pros: great graphics, sound, etc *read review*
    Cons: cant punch *a very weak con but read the review*

    Summary: If you played the first, you know what the second is about. And you probably from there know about t ...

  • Hitman- Silent Assasin is the best hitman since the first one

    Apr 18 '03
    Pros: tricky plot, fun gameplay, good graphics
    Cons: must be patient, very hard

    Summary: When i first recieved Hitman: Silent Assasin from a friend i was disapointed thinking it would be a dud like the First one. However after i got to playing it I found that it was fun and required more stealth and strategery than the first one. For those...

  • Is it a movie or a game?

    Mar 02 '03
    Pros: Good storyline, superb music score, open concept, fun. Excellent physics.
    Cons: Could be more realistic. Controls a little hard to get used to. Most weapons unused.

    Summary: The only reason this game fell into my hands is because I bought a hardware game controller called The Claw and Hitman 2: Silent Assassin came with the package. I would, normally, not have bought this game because I had read reviews of 'Hitman: Codename...

  • Far Better Than The First

    Jan 22 '03
    Pros: Simpified controls, excellent graphics, superb gameplay.
    Cons: Required high-end machine to fully enjoy, lackluster plot.

    Summary: I was somewhat skeptical of a new Hitman, mostly since the first game was ambitious, but flawed. With it's punishing difficulty level and often frustrating controls, Hitman: Codename 47 could have been a much better game than it turned out to be. Hitman...

  • Hitman is still a shootemup.

    Jan 04 '03
    Pros: Good graphics, sound, neat map and briefing displays.
    Cons: Not a realistic hitman type game but more of a shootemup.

    Summary: I haven't played this game all the way through but have played a few missions and thus far, the game seems to be more of a shootemup and not as much as a strategic hitman game as the name suggests. One of the games good features is the map and mission...

  • A shooter for every type of gamer.

    Dec 30 '02
    Pros: nice graphics, lots of variety between weapons and your choice of gameplay
    Cons: controls lag a little,limited number of saves, slow paced.

    Summary: Another first/third person shooter game, what's so special about this one now?
    Well, Hitman 2 is not your average shooter. The goal of this game is not to have the player go out in full force and massacre everybody they see. You're suppose to be a...

  • Hitman living up to it's potential

    Dec 27 '02
    Pros: Much improved over the original. Good gameplay and suspense.
    Cons: Not perfect. A little too video gamey. The stroy is a bit screwy.

    Summary: I played the original Hitman and you could see it had potential that was squandered, mostly because it wasn't really done when it was released. It had the levels and all, but things just didn't work so well in practice. I ended up using the cheat codes...

  • An excellent FPS

    Dec 15 '02
    Pros: Excellent soundtrack!, exciting gameplay, great storyline, interesting missions
    Cons: AI is a little incompetent

    Summary: The story begins in a Sicilian monastery. Agent 47, or "The Hitman" is the character you will be playing. As he attempts to further himself from his filthy past, a Russian crime lord induces the hitman to return to his line of work. Hitman is soon caught...

  • Old habits die hard

    Nov 17 '02
    Pros: freedom of gameplay, big armory
    Cons: some missions can be very repetitive and painstaking

    Summary: Introduction

    The world's most infamous assassin, 47, is back! Here you play as the genetically-engineered killer code-named "47", in a sequel to the original ambitious but somewhat flawed game "Hitman: Codename 47".

    If you've...

  • Stealthy gameplay accomodating multiple styles

    Nov 14 '02
    Pros: Fun, stealthy, great soundtrack, sequel which improves a lot over the first
    Cons: Another violent game

    Summary: Hitman 2 let's you become a professional assassin, in multiple scenarios utilizing various methods to get the job done. It's a well done and fun game for those who enjoy stealthier action games that reward tactical on the spot planning and patience....

  • A practical review for Hitman 2

    Oct 31 '02
    Pros: Excellent Graphics, immersive atmosphere, interesting story
    Cons: Gameplay is flawed in some areas

    Summary: This game is comparable to:
    Hitman 1 (obviously)
    GTA
    Mafia

    This game has:
    1. detailed graphics
    2. realistic sounds
    3. semi-open ended gameplay (1-3 ways to complete a mission)
    4. an immersive quality, you get...

  • A fun, challenging game.

    Oct 27 '02
    Pros: Multiple ways to beat a mission, good graphics, first person mode. A lot of replayability.
    Cons: Some missions don't seem well designed, music is mediocre.

    Summary: Please note that before reading this, I played the Xbox version of the game, which seems to relate more to the PC version then the PS2 version in terms of graphics quality and game engine.

    After I came home from EB and popped it in, I expected...
