Blood Money has received its rating of '18' for 'Strong bloody violence, drugs, sexual content and violence'. In Brief You may well be asking yourself "What is this 'Hitman', and what is it about?". Firstly, it's rather self-explanatory. It Hitman: Blood Money, you play a 'Hitman' or an assassin if you will, who is paid to kill certain targets.

When I first played this game, I liked it more than I do now. Retrospectively, I think the game has a lot of fun elements to it in terms of being stealthy, but the dark and violent element gets in the way of it being as fun as it could be. As there are other stealth focused games out there, I would find those titles before I try something like this again. I guess the violence of it is supposed to be a big part.

Hitman blood money had a lot to live up to given excellent versions in the silent assassin and contract versions. The classic stealth game in my view does not disappoint.

This is honestly one of my lesser liked games, it's probably just me and not being the type of person to like sneaking around and re-doing it over and over again. I really prefer the checkpoint system that is in the Absolution game, over the limited saves in blood money. Furthermore in comparison to Absolution, they have made many improvements from blood money such as better AI's that let you know where you're getting seen from, and definitely better controls! Overall within the first couple of levels that I played before I got really stuck and very irritated of the game, uninstalling it and putting it in my 'bin' category. The graphics are OK, for when the game was ...  Read the complete review
