is out today

I think I am going to go pick up a copy for my 360

 

Looks amazing on all systems, but the 360 looks

Waiting for price drops on Ebay next week.

 

Shit, I guess I'm going to have to pick this up too. Looks awesome.

 

I loved Contracts, guess I'll see if I can rent it somehow.

 

If you liked Contracts, then you'll love this game.

Looks so good on the 360. I love the newspaper articles after the missions with all the stats buried in it.

 

ive played the previous ones on the computer. Contracts was a pretty fun game but its a little short. I might have to check into this as a weekend player.

 

Are there any 360 FPS games where I can go online with someone else and play splitscreen live? Like in Halo 2, I can sign in to my account with a guest, and we can play on teams against other people. Battlefield 2 won't let me do this, neither will COD.

 

I wish the computer would have games like that....FPS i mean.

 

I hate Hitman so far. I played it for about a half hour and just turned it off.

The control for aiming your gun is the right joystick, like any other game. But in this, the slightest movement of that stick and your aimer swings wildly all over the screen. It takes a good 10 seconds per guy to center the damn thing. I don't know if this is supposed to discourage running in guns blazing or what, but it is not fun.

 

Not available in Ghost Recon either.

Why did they get rid of this from every game? None of the games even have a co-op campaign mode anymore.

 

ghost recon will allows this!

 

sure they do. i play people that are doing that all the time. Just go to xbox live like you normally would for yourself. It has spaces for up to 4 players.

 

Yeah, my fault, I am talking about two different things. In Ghost Recon you can't do a co-op campaign (you can do three individual 10 minute missions, but no actual campaign)...but yeah you can do splitscreen live.

 

I want to get this game so badly! Let me know how it is...looks very promising.

 

Well i could never play FPS on Xbox or PS2. I just never got used to using the analog stick for moving and aiming. I just play on the computer and then again I cant use a regular mouse. I have to use a trackball since thats I learned on.

 

Trackball...ew! I don't think you'd ever be able to be as fast as someone using a mouse...

More recent FPS controls on consoles are pretty good I think. The dual analog sticks helps a lot...before that the controls really sucked. I still prefer keyboard/mouse for an FPS, but not many other games.

 

Mouse is definitely better, but I'm fairly decent with the joystick in all the other FPS games I've got on consoles. Just not in Hitman.

 

Ive never had any problem keeping up with anyone else. And with a trackball you have the same range of motion on the screen as with a mouse. You dont have to worry about running out of mouse pad and you only have to use your thumb.

 

Good deal on the PS2 version:

I am getting this game for PC. For awesome games like this, PC is the only way to go. Pump up the resolution, and turn up the surround sound, yippie kay ye!!!

I remember Hitman 1 has lots of bugs, Hitman Contracts wasn't that great, but Hitman 2 was awesome. I remember one mission in H2, I had to sneak around in Moscow and snipe some general in a meeting in a tall building across from my building. I first had to identify the guy, it was very well done. Then the best part was that after I shot the general and saw him falling down, I was instructed to go over to that building... I really thought I had shot the general, but when I got there, wholly crap, it was a huge twist for me...

Anyway, don't wanna spoil the plot, so I type in white color below:

As I snuck into the meeting room in the building across, I realized that I had shot a human size cardboard figure rather than a real person... from a distance, it looked just like real person. I was double crossed, and the real general was switched to cardboard right under my eye, well, my scope, that is

 

Picked it up for PS2 a few days ago. I am hooked. I have only played Hitman 2, never played 1 or contracts. This game is awesome, but you really have to have patience.

 

I couldn't get into Contracts, but I played Blood Money a lot over the weekend until I beat it. Great graphics. Great game.

The funny thing is, this game really makes me feel like a psycho. lol I don't have the patience to be all sneaky and inconspicuous so I usually end up playing a guns blazing style. My girlfriend told me, "I can't watch...the dogs and women didn't do anything so you shouldn't murder them like that." As a result, for the first time, she was very happy when I beat the game! lol

 

Blood Money is sick



That is all

 

i just beat it last week after playing it for about a week. very easy game, i found myself wanting more. the ending was unexpected...

 

I just beat the mission where you're sent to a playboy type party to kill these 2 individuals. Did anyone else die in an "unexpected way?"

 

Man, Blood Money rocks. I played a version of it on PC, it was very good, and I thought to myself, boy, this is worth the money, so I went out plunging down $40 bought the game, PC DVD version.

Now I am on mission 6 or 7, the Mardi Gras one. So far so good, the pistal with laser and scope is soooooo cool!!!!

One annoying fact is that you can't really save games and come back to it after you shut it down.

 

No, but I chucked the mine into the hot tub..............no one suspects Santa

 

I found 2 cool things on that level...

1. There's an assasin on that level

2. At the very start of the mission, if you look up, you can see the glass bottom jacuzzi which you can shoot and your target will fall to his untimely death :evilgrin:

 

I just got to level 5? The suburb area? Seems tricky. I haven't sat down and really played it yet. I do love this game though. So much better than mindless shooters (which I like also).

 

The best part about Blood Money is that there are so many different ways to accomplish the mission. The hard part? Trying to figure out those ways! Sometimes buying the intel helps.
