Advantages: The game tries it's best to make you feel like a gritty, down to earth hitman.

Disadvantages: It fails miserably at trying to do just that.

In Hitman:contracts, I didn't really know what to think. This game is deep, and the number of ways to get past each level is staggering, but a single mistake in the game means a hefty retrace through the level back to what ever you missed.
This game is for sharp people and it can get quite difficult, and it might of been fun, if not for the mediocre graphics. These really detract from the "feeling" of the game, and although you can hide in shadows, steal uniforms, and sneak about, there really isn't much point if the graphics make you think. "Meh, this isn't real, I
don't feel *involved*"
The sound is again not that good, footsteps usually sound as if your walking on leaves, or snow, no matter whether its carpet or hard floor.
The levels are almost too lengthy to be fun, and overall there isn't much in this game that makes you want to play all the way to the end.
It drags on, and often requires split second timing, and to be JUST in or out of the shadow to be able to kill someone, or sneak by.
Even aiming a weapon feels unresponsive and clunky, and in conclusion I wouldn't buy this game, unless you can get it for under a pound.
2 thumbs down.

Summary: Don't buy this game, it really isn't worth it.
