all games

I have over 60 games and soon over 70. I have every shooting game I can buy and every other action, adventure, survival horror game their is but their is one that stands out, Hitman 2 Silent Assassin. I saw this game and knew their was something that was going to be diffrent about it. I bought it when it came out and was I ever right. This game has just something special about it that no other game can compete with. The graphics are just perfect in their own way and the level setup can't get better. The Nintendo Gamecube version I was reading the other day came out after the Xbox and PS2 versions and that Eidos put more time into the Gamecube version then any other, which is great. The sound is cool and a high point is not every gun sounds the same. Actually you here about 12 diffrent things in one level from cars,guns,talking,mice,walking,breathing, and alot more. The game is loaded with weapons and their all completely loaded and ready to go. Their is one level which has a wierd glitch which you must outsmart within the game itself which is hard but that is the second to last level. I could go on and on about this game but no words could even compare with you playing the game. Try it, buy it, rent it, burrow it I don't care just make sure you try it.

This game has everything: endless replayability, countless ways to finish missions, beautiful graphics, fluid gameplay. The music avoids the terrible Heavy Metal flourishes that dominate most 1st person shooter games. The AI is the best of any game I've played up to this point. You'll get addicted.

However, the main reason this game is so great is that it rewards NOT using lethal violence in favor of stealth, secrecy, timing, and calculated risk-taking. Sure you COULD blast your way through every mission, but extras are unlocked, and players are rewarded, through minimizing collateral damages, and avoiding detection. This makes the game not only endlessly challenging, but also a nice statement to the gaming world that it is possible to construct a 1st person game around more than just gore, and weaponary.

AND at this price the game is a absolute bargain.

Bottom line...BUY THIS GAME!! It is worth every penny. You will have hours of enjoyment, wait... Days of enjoyment. Why? Because you will discover there are multiple ways in completing missions. The enemy AI is excellent and will keep you on your toes. You'll have the ability to subdue enemies and disguise yourself in their clothing, but be carefull not to look too suspicious by running, carrying the wrong weapon, or even letting the enemy see your face. The AI is that good. If you run you can alert enemies in the next room or even floor above. The weapons are first class with a wide variety: Axe,Swords,knives, pistols, anesthetic, Rifles, remote bombs, smoke bombs, even a golf club. Missions can be completed with guns blazing or with total "silence"(a bonus is given when you achieve a rating of "silent assassin") As I said, there are number of different ways of completing missions: Pick em off from long range or sneak up on them and strangle them with your fiber wire. Graphics are excellent and the locations are top notch. The realism in this game is top notch as well: knock a guy out with the choloroform and wait too long, he will wake up 5-10 min. later and alert the guards, when using the scope on your sniper rifle you'll have to wait while your breathing regulates for a steady shot. Another plus is the ability to save your game at any point making it playable at anytime.
This game will give you days of fun with the ability to go back and play it again using a different approach with your level of aggression or stealth.
