You know what they say: What happens in Vegas stays in body dumps!Back when Hitman: Absolution came out, people (rightfully) got angry over some of the strange marketing decisions made. Most notable, was the reveal of The Saints, assassins in bondage suits who disguised themselves as nuns.But as...
Another episode in Mississippi, this time we go to murder a groom and his would-be father-in-law at a his wedding.Like the birthday party in Episode 4, this is another small, but dense level filled with murderous possibilities.On top of that the implications that the bribe is also the client adds a...
Today, we get down and dirty in the swamps of Mississippi:Back in the Mardi Gras mission (Episode 5: Part 1) I discussed the problem Blood Money has where guards exist in a binary. They either shoot you on sight or are completely unaware of any danger.The other problem I briefly touched on with...
Let's try this again....To clarify my point, when I say that the game manipulates you into thinking like a psychopath like Agent 47, I don't mean that as a negative criticism of the game.Hitman: Blood Money is trying to convey a certain experience to the player. That is, it is trying to make...
Welcome to the party. I hope you remembered your chicken suit.One thing I noticed about this mission after watching the tape is that the chicken suits serve an second purpose, other than just being a joke.When you consider the massive crowd roaming this space, you realize that the designers needed...
And thus we begin one of the most well known and loved missions in Hitman: Blood Money.This video talks a lot about one of the problems in Blood Money, and that's how quickly guards are willing to open fire on you.The guard's in this game are almost binary. With very few exceptions, they are either...
You've been invited to a very special day. It's the day where Suzie's dad dies during her own birthday party... This is without a doubt my personal favorite mission in the game. Though the actual house is small, there's so much going on within that house that you'd be surprised. There are...
In this episode, we redeem our failures from the previous run: You can kinda see the genesis of the Contracts Mode that I/O Interactive introduced in Hitman: Absolution (and Hitman 2016 later) here. Even though we have a clear, primary target to take out, we also have two other targets that provide...
In this episode of Hitman: Blood Money, we save one dude in order to murder three. ...or we would if I didn't screw it up.I'm really glad that I messed up the way I did though, because this is a lot of what Hitman ends up being. You try one method, make some mistakes, and learn from them. Then,...
In this episode, we enter the opera house to enjoy the show... and murder some people! In order to elaborate a point I made in the episode, this game operates on a "realistic surrealism". What I meant by that is that the things that Agent 47 can do are completely absurd in the context of real life....
