Agent 47 is back. Hitman Absolution transports us into the much-adored franchise, letting us glimpse the world through the eyes of a cold-blooded contract killer. Returning after a six-year hiatus, does the game triumph over Blood Money, its much-acclaime...
Abstract: Hitman: Absolution came out earlier this year, and we've been using it since in our graphics card tests. Today we are presenting the scores of about 50 different GPUs and SLI/Crossfire combinations for this action game. If you don't know this game and ...
Strong stealth-action gameplay, Lots of opportunity to make your own mayhem, Good dialogue and distinctive style
Frustrating checkpoint system, Levels split into discrete chunks, Tiresome focus on escape in some missions
Hitman: Absolution has its issues with checkpoints, truncated maps and story-led design, but these mar rather than spoil what's otherwise an impressive return. This can be a frustrating game, but when things go right it's a very rewarding one, giving you ...

AI can be difficult to predict, wasted time on trial and error in higher difficulty modes, overlapping action buttons (e.g. triangle)
Abstract: Hitman: Absolution, the latest in the series from IO Interactive, is going to be a mixed bag for Hitman fans. It starts off strong, kicking off with a Chinatown mission after the prologue that certainly echoes previous Hitman titles, allowing you to do...
Abstract: Here’s a simple truth: Modern gamers love longevity. Players expect to get a bigger bang for their collective buck now more than ever, a sentiment that has led many game companies to pack as much replay value as they can into their titles. Some—like Ca...
What hurts Hitman: Absolution the most, in my mind, is its lack of identity. Creating a Hitman title that's accessible to a wider audience is certainly an admirable goal, but that comes at the sacrifice of the franchise's identity. Gameplay that allows th...
