That's true. But try to slice someone up, people will notice right away and come looking what that noise was.

Haha right. You can pull off a bad ass combo that sends the enemy flipping head over heels and no one hears, but stab him in the back and the whole place is alerted. Didn't quite get that.

Gameplay doesn't look bad but I don't really see the point of the instinct mode, yeah I know, just don't use it then. I guess I see it as a something that can help the casual gamers, not that I have any problem with it. Also hearing 47 talking makes me miss Bateson, I'm hoping the guy can do a good job but no matter how good it'll be it just wouldn't be the same with Bateson.

 

[Balthus Dire]

So true. Such a big mistake to replace him; he's been Hitman since forever.

 

[ProjectPat2280]

Yea it really is inexcusable. I have to blame SE. I am sure IOI didn't want him replaced. He WAS 47 is more ways than one.

 

[gregtestagent]

aw, I wanted to post the playthrough! *grabs a lamp wire*

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

So true. Such a big mistake to replace him; he's been Hitman since forever.

I second this.

 

[The Riddler]

the game itself looks pretty amazing.

don't like the x-ray vision / detective mode vision ala batman arkham asylum but it looks fantastic besides that.

 

[Nathan]

I'm going to try not to use that instinct mode, or whatever it's called, when I first play the game.

 

[jacobed]

Looks pretty awesome, the lighting is great and I love the guards dialogue. I've never really played a Hitman game all the way through before so I guess the voice doesn't bother me at all. I like the Instinct mode, I won't use it often but its nice for people who want to play and enjoy the game without doing all the trial and error.

 

[Nathan]

The only game I ever finished was Blood Money. I think the controls bothered me too much in the earlier games. So I'm kinda in the same boat. Only really played one game, so I'm not as attached to the voice. For me, both voices sound good.

But I can understand when people are bothered by the different voice. It bothers me in inFamous a lot. In the first game, Cole has more of a rough, strong voice. Then they switched VAs for the sequel and he sounds softer, weaker.

 

[jacobed]

Yeah I definitely understand why people are mad especially if the first voice for 4 games was really good.

 

[ProjectPat2280]

47's voice and tone was extremely important to who the character was, it's why this voice fails on so many levels. I don't know, maybe the actor will be able to pull it off, based on that line though, I doubt it.

 

[Oscorp]

Wow just watched the gameplay video and man it looks great! I love when he walks among those cops. I've never thought of this game before, might be a buy after this.

 

[gregtestagent]

whoever was playing obviously played through this several times.

 

[ProjectPat2280]

Im assuming it was one of the developers

VGA 2011: Exclusive Trailer

 

[Wolfwood]

When did the trailer pop up? I'm pretty sure I saw all of the VGAs, but I missed this bit.

 

[Soapy]

It was on during the preshow.

I can't wait to play my first Hitman!

 

[Wolfwood]

There was a preshow? Dang, was it any good?

 

[Soapy]

Nope. I tuned out pretty quickly after they showed Hitman.

 

[ProjectPat2280]

Damn! Was really hoping for a release date.


SICK trailer though.

The most interesting thing deff had to be Diana's death. damn i can't wait to find out whats going on.

 

[Crockett]

I like the stab they're doing at the Assassin's Creed series with the tagline "original assassin".

 

[Balthus Dire]

I like the stab they're doing at the Assassin's Creed series with the tagline "original assassin".

Hahaha I chuckled at this, too. It's like EA with their "Above and beyond the call" line.

Great trailer. This game should be killer.

Did you guys notice the band aid at the back of 47's head? Did he maybe scratch off his Barcode? Or maybe he just got hit there.
