Hitman Blood Money Review


Hitman Blood Money is the last game from the Hitman Trilogy. Again the biggest difference with the previous Hitman games is the graphics. They look pretty good for a PlayStation 2 game. The possibilities in this Hitman are great. You can do every mission on many ways, because there are many routes to get to a place and to kill an enemy. Hitman can freerun on a simple way, there are several points in every map where you can climb a fence or walk over a ledge. If you are freerunning and you are spotted, you have a big problem. But if you aren't spotted you can avoid many guards and dangerous points on the map. The maps are designed on a great way, I love the freedom you got to do a contract. While doing a mission it sometimes felt like a free-roam game.

The AI is too agressive I think. When you are discovered, you will be immediately shot by multiple enemies. The upgrading of weapons is a great addition to the tactics of the game. You start with a single Silverballer, but at the end I had a semiautomatic, magnum bullet shooting, silenced, scoped, laser equipped and extended magazine dual Silverballer. At the end one shot was enough to kill, but thanks to the semiautomatic upgrade I could handle groups of enemies with much more ease.

Hitman Blood Money is the best Hitman I played until now, thanks to it's great level designs, many possibilities and weapon upgrades. A big disadvantage is the aggressive AI.

Hitman Trilogy HD

Tuesday I bought the Hitman Trilogy HD in the PlayStation Store. I bought this game because of the price, it was only ten euros. The Trilogy features Hitman 2: Silent Assassin, Hitman: Contracts and Hitman: Blood Money. After I 'finished' Mass Effect 3, I started the Trilogy with Hitman 2: Silent Assassin. Hitman 2: Silent Assassin came out in 2002. The game starts in Italy. Hitman is at the beginning of Silent Assassin a gardener in a monastery. The priest of the monastery is kidnapped, so Hitman goes after him.
I like this game very much. The gameplay is very challenging and fun. At every contract there are many ways to finish it. It's quite difficult to finish a level without killing any other person than the target and not being discovered. Until now I succeeded only one time to get the Silent Assassin rating. At the end of every mission you get a rating based on the amount of bullets you shot, the amount of people you kill and the amount of conflicts you have. So if they are all zero, except for the kill, that is allowed to be one, you get the Silent Assassin rating.

Thanks to this game I know good graphics are not necessary for a game. If the gameplay is good, you don't need good graphics. Good graphics are even a bit distracting. In Hitman I never look at a computer screen, the only thing that on it is several white lines. In Mass Effect 3 for example, you see animations on the screen of a computer, and that's not necessary for a game. The next weeks you will read a lot about Hitman, because of the other games in the trilogy and because Hitman Absolution is free for PlayStation Plus next month!
