Besides the dumb trailer everything else seems just like a hitman game should be. With the highest difficulty you don`t even have to use the new "sense"features. The first preview impressions are sounding neat and interesting. There are enough experimental ways to reach your goal and simple shooting makes the game just harder. While cops are easy taken out the breaching SWAT troops will kill agent 47 fast. I`m keeping my eyes on the game and wait for the first console pictures and vids (the graphics are very nice but i`m starting to doubt the current generation a bit, most of the shown stuff looks like pc footage to me).

I'm not an established Hitman fan, so it never featured highly on my list on anticipated games.

The tacky as fuck trailer changed my attitude from "meh" to "definitely not" (and no, not because it "showed a guy fighting women").

The franchise ended for me with the last game. This... this doesn't feel like the old Hitman. Maybe next summer Steam sale, when it's $10 or less.

I'll probably get if for Christmas after I seen the reviews on it.
However it does look good, it just I don't have much money to preorder.

Very much so. I love the Hitman series, and still frequently play Blood Money (Even if it is confusing to get a perfect silent assassin rating, kill everyne through accidents or suicide looking moves, and then the news paper says they were murdered, policve suspect blood money was involved. Even when it wasn't.), and have been trying to find a copy of 1 and 2. I'm kind of annoyed at the removal of the live map...but unless they royally break the game, it'll just make sneaking around a bit harder.

I care that it's been 6 years and yet it seems Blood Money will still be the far better game.

So, in a sense.

The more I've been shown, the more I've spun from worry to distress to resentful acceptance. I hope it'll surprise me and not be a complete waste and misunderstanding of the concept, but I can see it easily going the other way.

I mean for fuck sake, it should be going for more openness, and yet most of the previews have said levels have checkpoints and follow linear areas to get through.

If you're the developer on a Hitman game, and you start using the word 'cinematic' to describe your new entry for the series, that's a sign you've gone wrong pal.

I don't know...I've never played any of the other games (I was a gamecube fanboy last gen), I heard we're getting a Hitman HD collection though...I might get that first and then maybe absolution.

Ive never played a hitman game before but because the concept sounds good im getting it, but only when it goes on sale! i should probably play the original ones if the concept sounds good but from what i hear they havnt aged well?

Never played any of the previous ones, cept for Blood Money. I loved Blood Money. I'm not excited, but I'm not uninterested.
