Hitman - Codename 47 (PC)

We have all seen the likes of Tomb Raid in which Lara Croft runs around shooting pretty much anything that moves in order to complete her mission. It is also a fun game that kids would like to play. Hitman: Codename 47 however is a thoroughly more sinister affair. The name sums up basically what the game is about. You are a hitman who was created in a lab as a prototype clone. You then control him as he plans and carries out ‘hits’ on several high power figures. He is actually being manipulated in order to wipe out all the traces of the cloning experiment being carried out. As the game progresses you being to realise that he is the next target. ...  Read the complete review

Hitman Codename 47 is arguably one of the greatest games I have ever played thanks to its great graphics and even better physics engine, which really makes this game what it is. I mean if this game was to exist of repetative death sequences and a dull uninteractive environment this game would be nothing more than another FPS (First Person Shooter). Take this for example, In the first level you find your self in control of a slap headed bloke strapped to his bed with a demanding voice telling you what to do, if it weren't for the game title (Hitman Codename 47) you would probably have thought that you were some kind of Mental Patient taking his daily stroll. ...  Read the complete review

In all honesty: if you're a serous FPS gamer, fuggetabowdit!! (Purchasing this game I mean)... Granted, that IO-Interactive have grappled with a great idea that defies comprehension as to why it hasn't been applied previously in the FPS genre- borrow this from a friend who has already bought it... "Hitman: Codename 47" is one of the most criminal gyps I have ever experienced, and from Eidos especially, I was mightily disappointed. I'll just say here and now that the class idea of 'rubbing-out' deserving underworld-criminal types and unsuspecting presidents didn't rub off onto the game. Those expecting 'Leon- The ...  Read the complete review

I recently brought my-self a copy of the game thinking that it will be only okay but boy was I wrong! This game simply kicks the brown stuff out of every other game I can off for the pc. The game is so detailed and the thing that amazes me the most is that it runs sooooo smooth! Basically in the game you are a hitman (duhh!) and you don’t really know your past. At the start of the game you are wearing only a white robe and you are in a white room with one door and a bed. You hear a voice and you go out of the door and the first thing you do is get changed into your “working” clothes. The first level on the game all you do is get a ...  Read the complete review

"...............And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee" Ooops, sorry getting a little carried away there. If you have ever felt the need to re-enact the film Pulp Fiction this would be the game to do it on. Hitman codename 47 casts you in the role of an assassin carrying out missions dictated in orders given via a laptop Mission Impossible style, only the laptop doesn't self destruct. Hitman is a first person shooter in the same vein as Unreal or Quake, only a lot more scripted. The ...  Read the complete review
