Hitman 2: Silent Assassin for Windows

Pros: Fun, stealthy, great soundtrack, sequel which improves a lot over the first

Cons: Another violent game

The Bottom Line: Fun stealthy spy assassin thriller game that accommodates multiple play style with multiple solutions. A much improved sequel over Hitman 1.

Review: 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....

Pros: great graphics, sound, etc *read review*

Cons: cant punch *a very weak con but read the review*

The Bottom Line: No game like it, play it, and you'll see why, but if you just trash it, and not play it through, you obviously don't know what precision is.

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

Pros: Excellent soundtrack!, exciting gameplay, great storyline, interesting missions

Cons: AI is a little incompetent

The Bottom Line: Highest quality, most captivating FPS out there on the market.

Review: 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...

Pros: Wide variety of weapons, nice graphics.

Cons: Music kinda bland, AI not up to snuff.

The Bottom Line: Not perfect, but well worth a purchase.

Review: 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...

Pros: Great atmosphere. Ratchets up the tension and keeps you glued.

Cons: Inconsistent AI, a few annoyingly difficult levels.

The Bottom Line: This is a great twist to the classic third-person action title. It demands patience and planning, but the rewards are great.

Review: 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 ...

Pros: freedom of gameplay, big armory

Cons: some missions can be very repetitive and painstaking

The Bottom Line: One of the best, if not the best, single-player games of 2002.

Review: 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...

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.

The Bottom Line: It's not flawless, but it's a brilliant game that will absorb you. If the game doesn't, the soundtrack will.

Review: 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...

Pros: Unique emphasis on stealth and deception.

Cons: Can get through the game just by killing everybody. Boring plot.

The Bottom Line: Still a fun game...just not a classic.

Review: 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 ...

Pros: nice graphics, lots of variety between weapons and your choice of gameplay

Cons: controls lag a little,limited number of saves, slow paced.

The Bottom Line: Excellent graphics, excellent sound, excellent gameplay = excellent game.

Review: 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...

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.

The Bottom Line: This is one of the best games i've played in a while, and I highly suggest a rental to see if you like it.

Review: 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...
