It's hard to deny the appeal of Hitman: Codename 47 . What action fan hasn't wanted to slip into the suit of a diamond-hard assassin-for-hire equally adept at both stealthy hits and all-out assaults? Hitman certainly provides you with the tools of the trade, offering everything from piano wire and silenced pistols to bull-pup submachine guns and predator-style miniguns. It also lets you perform many of the tricks of the trade, like stealing your enemy's clothes and dragging bodies away so roving patrols won't stumble onto them and get curious. Unfortunately, heavily scripted level design and some fairly dumb enemies get in the way of the fun, forcing players to rely more on memorization than quick reactions. Be prepared to play each level several times just to figure out exactly how to accomplish your objectives, and several times after that to successfully carry them out. At least there was a lot to look at as we repeated each level. Hitman has some of the most beautiful graphics ever placed Less

Hitman: Brains AND Brawn.

byAlkaiser Dec 3, 2000
67 Helpfuls 68 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Great action, thinking required instead of just shooting.
Cons Graphics not up to snuff, pop-up in the game engine.
Recommended it? Yes

I'm in the midst of what I like to call "too much game" syndrome. Thanksgiving weekend, I was kicking back the day after prepping a huge turkey, and all the other stuff, watching Junkyard Wars and playing FF9.

Then my pal Nobby swings by and drops of the game that would divide up my... Read full review »

Instructions for how to be a Hitman.

27 Helpfuls 28 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Graphics, Physics, Concept, Realism, and More!
Cons Bad keyboard layout. Frame hits when you need it the smoothest.
Recommended it? Yes

This game can be considered training software to be a hired killer. This isn't a parental warning, this is a compliment. Playing this game can actually teach you about how various assault weapons work, about lining up a sniping rifle, and various techniques to infiltrate the enemy like switching... Read full review »

Pros Good graphics, Straight to the action.
Cons This game requires an intensive computer to run, even on minimum.
Recommended it? Yes

Company of Heroes is one of those games that can alter a genre, like what Half-Life did to FPS games. The game throws in many aspects from the nomenclature RTS by having capture points (to gain resources), reinforcing units when they are depleted, giving you general powers to use, etc.

Pros Graphics, sound, and replay value is high.
Cons Connections get lost alot during Multiplayer.
Recommended it? Yes

Obviously you are reading this review because you MUST like RTS games and therefore are wondering if this RTS with only 2 sides is worth buying.

In one word, yes.

Mainly because it has elements that no other RTS has ever had. What it lacks in other areas it makes up for in... Read full review »
