  • I’ve mixed feelings on it. On one hand I feel the game is really overpriced given how old it is and how barebones the port is, and I feel 30 bucks is still a bit much.

    On the other hand, if this is your first time playing the game, there IS a lot of content there. It’s a fairly big game to stick your teeth into. Ignoring its age and status as a port, I can see an argument for $30 being valid based on content. But I feel this should be its full price.

    If I hadn’t already completed it on PS3, I’d buy it now at this price. I don’t think rockstar is likely to discount it further.













  • Oh I hear you, the new hitman games are far from bad, and I agree with you they are kinda a culmination of lessons learned in the previous games.

    The main thing which bothers me is the handholding, where it comes up “mission story revealing” and then guides you. I’d love to at least pretend I’m working it out for myself. I understand you can turn that off, but I’ve also read online that doing so skips some story dialogue, would love it to turn out that’s wrong.

    It’s also down to personal preference for me; I just happen to prefer some of the levels from the classic games. I also dislike the UI and general vibe of the new ones, how it feels like a live service. I appreciate my word choice of “superior” was overly strong in hindsight, I really meant it subjectively and was not trying to make a reaching claim. Both classic and new are very good, marketing and DRM aside.


  • Absolutely understandable. I didn’t get it that way purely because I personally get very anxious about viruses etc when it comes to sourcing games/software. But I did deliberately get a key off a grey market site to give them as little profit as possible.

    I also hate how handholdy all the fun stuff is, it totally removes that element of working it out yourself which felt so good in the previous games. I haven’t tried freelancer mode yet, I’ll give it a go.
