I'm a big fan of any shooter game involving professional killing and the Hitman series has definatly taken the cake. Hitman: Blood Money offers a whole new realm of excitement and anticipation. You have to have patience to play a game like this.

The graphics are excellent but they do require a heavy system to reach it's full potential.

Excellent game; lot of fun

How can I say if the game is any good or not? I can't play since the drivers to run directX 9.0c don't come with the CD and I'm not where I can download 'em. This stinks. I am a big Hitman fan, and this sort of cheesy runaround, expecially at a premium price, is way out of line.

Best Hitman to date

I had a lot of fun with this one.....and contrary to what some reviewers are saying, if this game was a port, I couldn't tell. It looked quite well made to me, and had very high production values (along with yet another killer soundtrack by Jesper Kyd).

The real value here is in the gameplay, which is compelling and extremely well executed....a huge interaction interface improvement over Silent Assassin. Multipathing is excellent, and enhances replay value.

The basic plot this time is quite interesting as well, and keeps you wanting to play to the end to the greatest Hitman final level ever conceived....play it to find out what happens.

Performance was more than passable, and graphics more than good. You don't need a particularly beefy PC to play this, in fact I have dual video cards and played it fine with nary a hitch on just one single card.

A very well done stealth-action game

This is one of my favorite game series of all time. I truly love the Hitman games because they have some of the greatest executions of all stealth games. This one is also great gameplay, in every mission there is a ton of ways to complete them. You can even make alot of the executions look like accidents. Drop a chandelier on a group of Mafia bad guys, knock some bad guys over a railing into alligator infested swamps, and even strangle a guy on the bench-press with the bar! There are just so many ways to kill! But my one annoyance is the freaking AI! It is so unpredictable sometimes, I had to restart the mission. But if you do not let this get to you, Hitman is one of the best series you will play.

What a Blast!

Agent 47 comes to life on your PC. For those of you that play Hitman: Blood Money on your Xbox 360 and were hesitating to get it for your pc, don't. The PC version has better graphics, of course it has one flaw, you have to use the keyboard and mouse to play the game, not an Xbox 360 Controller. If you get the pc game, get the latest patch, to prevent from crashes. And when you play this game, it does help to have the strategy guide when you play, or else you can make a fatal mistake in the game. This game has 13 missions, and mission one is a training level, to get you used to the keyboard and mouse controls that you will be using in the game's progression.

As you go from mission to mission, they will get harder. That is why you need the strategy guide to reference, so you don't get agent 47 killed during a critial mission. You can only save a game while you are playing it, which I think is bad. If you quit the game, you start from the beginning of the mission you were on, no save games to load. But as I said, if you played this game on the Xbox 360, you are used to this feature. All, in all. This is a great game to play if you are into FPS games (for the newbie First Person Shooter). No multiplayer features on this game for the pc or the Xbox 360, sorry. And you must have at least a Pentium 4 processor or better, and I find that at least 2 GB of computer RAM, plus a very good video card (Like the 200 dollar or higher Nvidia PCI-Express or ATI PCI-Express video card. And for the higher powered video cards, you need a more powerful power supply for your pc) will help make the game play smoothly on your pc.

Great continuation of hitman series

Hitman 2 is one of my favorite games of all time. When Contracts was released, I was left confused and disappointed by a game that felt overly dark and pretentious. With a bad taste in my mouth, I was hoping Blood Money would not follow in Contracts' footsteps.

Fortunately, it did not. Blood Money offers a wide variety of environments and settings that give the player vast freedom to explore. The scenarios are complex and multidimensional requiring the player to study and analyze a number of factors before deciding on a strategy. Much like the its predecessors, Blood Money is not a game for the impatient. It requires much experimentation and creativity through perseverance, bur the end results are very satisfying.

What I enjoy most about the Hitman series is the character of 47. Silent Assassin did the best job of depicting him as a complex human being, simultaneously cold-hearted and compassionate. Blood Money doesn't do much to build upon 47's character, but does offer other thematic and plot devices which draw the player into the game. Without spoiling it, the game is riveting and has a great ending (if you see it).

Tech specs:
AMD X2 4000+ @ 2.71ghz
2 x Nvidia 7900gt SLI
Played at 1680x1050, all setting maxed - absolutely no hitches, ran perfectly.

Great Game!

Excellent game-play and single player campaign. A few nice surprises along with all the features of previous Hitman games make for a very enjoyable and fun experience. Highly recommended!
