This is the game that brings the best of the original Hitman PC game to the PS2.
This game is incredible, there are so many ways to complete a level with either force or finesse.
The Hotel level specifically has so much replay value because of the many routes, rooms, and methods the player can choose for each of the multiple objectives. The characters' reactions and scripted events vary from entertaining to hilarious. There are secrets to unlock aswell. If you have played through the first Hitman game long ago then you're hitman enough to play this one and unlock the minigun. Tip: The key is in the Triad Lords office on the mission where he is not the objective.
Words can't describe the feeling of replaying the first level of contracts with a weapon than drops SWAT teams like dominos.

This game is terrible. poor first person,guns don't carry much ammuntion at the beginning of a mission,it's almost always run and gun.It's not that bad though,better graphics compared to hitman 2,a nice little needle instead of a stupid bottle that makes 47 look drunk,that awsome briefcase that contains a W2000 sniper rifle.and one more bad thing the game is so hard that if you put it on hard level its impossible to beat.

Best Hitman game(until "Blood Money")

Hitman:Contracts is my faverite "Hitman" game,its not a full sequel to Hitman 2:Silent Assasin.
What i didn`t like about Hitman 2 is that it was slow-paced,you had to press L2 to actually run,and was VERY difficult to sneak up on a target/guard.
The graphics are improved,although when you go into FPS mode-Agent 47`s hand and gun look AWFUL!
You have more freedom now,you are no longer forced into sneaking around,you have the choice to run with the gun,or snoop around hiding in disguises,You have more options which is also good news.
The game has high amounts of blood and gore,Not to mention more deadly weapons,Making H:C the most violent game in the series yet.
The missions arn`t 100% new either-some of them have been took from the original Hitman and bought to PS2 updated.
(aka "Traditions Of The Trade")

All In All-Hitman:Contracts is the overall best game in the series-maybe "Blood Money" will be better!?

Thrilling game!

Hitman:Contracts is wayyy underated-why,its actually the BEST Hitman game yet.
Its a lot more violent than the previous titles-which is how an "Assaination" game is meant to be,Just look at Manhunt for example that game is quite cool-yet its bloodie and violent as its a game about "Killing".
These games are rated M for reasons-GTA is rated M,Metal Gear Solid is rated M and so on.
The games quite cheap too,so if you are looking for a fun thrilling,stealthy killing game than try the Hitman games-Hitman:Contracts being the best!
Hitman comes 2nd in my faverite stealth series after Metal Gear Solid.
bye.

They need to let us give games like this higher ratings than just a measily 5.

Though not a completely new game, takes some missions from hitman 1 and makes them 10 times as good. The weapons all fire and sound like they should in this game. If you like the first mission in this where you have to sneak out of a window, climb down the ladder from the balcony, and steal a car, and oh yeah, you are gonna have to go back and get the car key if you didn't already, if you liked that, then every mission is better than this one. You have to go to meetings as a triad gang member and talk to a cop in a coffe house, you go to a stripper bar, and in the same mission you are on a boat dodging bullets fom good and bad guys, you go to an s and m club(which is also an opium bar, so have fun as an opium waiter), there is a sweet mission in a biker bar.

The greatest thing about this game is that you getta do what you wanna do when you want to do it. You can go into a mission and start running strait ahead trying to shoot everydody as you run by them and just hurry through the missions, or you can be as silent as possible and not have one person even see you with completing a mission. You can go in and kill 100 people or 0. It is your choice. There are literally anywhere from 5-15 different ways to complete each mission.

Also the music is a definite high point. The most original soundtrack I have ever heard on a game.

So for all you people looking for what I think is the 2nd BEST GAME OF ALL-TIME(PS2 WISE), buy this.

And if any of ya go in that hotel and kill like all 100 people, that will be reported to the police and you will be arrested for destructive behavior that could lead to real life crimes. You have been warned.

Pretty Bad-Ass

I really liked Hitman 2 (PS2), so i decided to check out "Contracts". They definitely made a lot of improvements in the gameplay. There's more freedom and more attack options. Also the realism and detail is noticably better. My only complaint is that some of the levels are pretty lame. Infact, 2 of them are nearly identicle. However, there are still a few really awesome levels. "The Meat King's Party" is a good example of a decent one....you pretty much ambush this drug party with all these people strung out on Opium...pretty cool. So if you're into shooters and esspecially if you liked Hitman 2, check out "Contracts".

I found CONTRACTS a let down after playing Hitman 2. Hitman 2 is better in every catagory. The violence depicted in CONTRACTS is over the top even for an assassin game, the scenes and locations are cluttered, and the picture is clouded and blurry like an episode of Moonlighting. Rent it or better yet borrow it before you buy it.

the best thing about this game is the ability to use environmental objects ranging from a pillow(to suffocate) to
a meat hook to a pool cue.while the other weapons are good i like the fiber wire the most. This is a very graphic game and if you have a problem with blood spattered walls dont play this game

When I first wanted to buy this game I was really excited that it was going to come out. Then I rented it and then I realized I was right to be excited. This game is alot more than just a shoot em' up. Some qualities that make this game strong are it's kickass graphics and runningtime. It is a long game and will keep you occupied for
along time. Another thing that is cool is the ability to kill your target in different ways. For example being able to kill Franz by locking him in a steamroom and killing him, in 'Traditions Of The Trade'. Also poisoning the drinks and killing your targets in 'The Seafood Massacre' , ' Traditions Of The Trade'and 'Beldingford Manor'.This game is one of the best and is alot better than Hitman 2. So go out and by it right now!!
