In a nutshell:
Agent 47 is back in the game that finally does full justice to the Hitman concept, with huge improvements to the graphics, controls and, most importantly, the number of ways for you to plan your hits - from wading in guns blazing to making it all look like a simple accident.The lowdown:
Although the Hitman games were always a great idea they never quite worked the way you expected, with an awkward control system and camera and far less freedom than it at first seemed. This latest sequel solves almost all these problems, starting with a standard third person camera over which you have full control. Although you can ask for hints on how to carry out a hit you've so many options the game's almost like a macabre graphic adventure - do you use the remote detonated bomb on the chandelier winch in the ballroom or plug the secretary's Coke with poison and hide in the cupboard? The new notoriety system seems a bit pointless but otherwise this gets almost everything right. Most exciting moment:
The game features tons of new additions like grabbing human shields, a quick draw for your gun and the ability to hide bodies. The most fun though is the simple sounding push option, which allows you to sneak up behind someone and send them flying off a balcony by "accident". Since you ask:
Blood Money includes various references to previous Hitman games, the most prominent being the Paris mission in an Opera house, which acts as a prequel to Hitman: Contracts. The bottom line:
The best Hitman game yet, that makes a real effort to fix the flaws of the previous games.

i have just got this game and it is the best game i have played on there is nothing that you can't do you can get human shields, take uniforms, push people off cliffs to make it look like suicide and people do not just collapse on the floor when you kill them.the only thing that needs improving is that there is not enough of it there are fourteen levels and considering the length is more than substantial but all outstanding games cand be improved by making it longer.
 A great sequel from a great series September 8, 2007

Sadly, it shows that it is a last gen port. The graphics range from PS2 standard to excellent. Fortunately the gameplay is still excellent regardless of the games graphical standards. It doesn't deviate much from the previous installments, so fans will knowwhat to expect.
Great! August 13, 2007

This is a very fun game, if you have the patience and are prepared to think a bit.
I loved it, and the story is done very interestingly. I have just noticed the secret achievements (there are achievements that are just called "secret" and it says u need to achieve it for more info) and im trying to resist going onto a forum to find out what they are..
this is the first hitman game I have played. I have completed it in rookie in 3-4 days ish and am looking forward to going back and trying on normal. There is good replay value as there are loads of ways of doing all the missions (i keep noticing different ways when i go to escape). when u finish all that, you can give yourself you own mission, such as making all your "hits" accidents etc.
Great fun, if you liked splinter cell or any of the other hitman games, give it a go!
Someone was saying about in-game saves- with a hard disc u can save during the mission but its lost if you quit the mission. I personally dont mind this as it forces you to play the whole mission.
Overall, A great story, and great gameplay! i got it from baldy007 and it had no problems, dunno if that seller is still available ( 8.50 :D)
oh, its also quite funny as well (i was just playing one of the last missions and one of the guards on a computer says to the others "look at this!" [i thought he was looking at camera footage or something so was slightly worried] they walked over and he said "swedish volleyball team website!" well i thought it was funny.)
fantastic game May 21, 2007

have owned hitman:silent assassin (ps2), hitman:blood money (ps2) and loved blood money so much that i bought it for my 360 as well, a must have, that is if you dont mind taking time in planning you "hit", and gettin away without any witnesses, or you could always go in all guns blazing and if you survive, you can always payy of any witnesses that you may have left behind!
