Urgh... -.- Dude, I'm literally just sayin': beat the game. The one plot-element that you complained about is something that is only fully explained in the end. I don't care that your opinion on the game differs from mine, I just think that you might like the game more after seeing the whole picture.

Being a "completionist" I cannot remember the last time I felt total relief after beating a game. I skipped the last installment of Hitman so most of the changes were new to me. The game was "ok" but the constant redundency from playing the same level over and over again trying to decipher the "perfect route" for the optimum score left a bitter sweet feeling. You are an assassin, therefore you either succeed or fail...having a point system telling me ...while you got the job done, there was a better way - try again and see if you can find it.... I can do without it. Doubt I'll play the next one as long as this is the format.

Honestly, I had more fun playing the sniper challenge than I did the game itself. In the future I'll just sit back and wait for another Splinter Cell or Metal Gear game to satisfy my urge to play a stealth-based game. Speaking of which:

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is about to be released. I can hardly wait :)
