Hitman Absolution

But but....that was what I was trying to say. Choice!

Good, than we are in agreement and there is no need for me to leave a garrison of Stormtroopers in your fancy cloud city.

Nearly made a new thread when I remembered I'd started one about this game already.
Review on IGN says that while it does have some scenarios where the game forces one to take the violent shoot 'em up path, in general the game is akin to a Hitman Blood Money, but a lot smoother.
However since Mass Effect 3 and Colin Moriarty's comment's on IGN I've been a little skeptical about their reviews, so going to wait for other opinions before I get this one.

Eurogamer likes it, not as much as Blood Money but enjoyable

PC Gamer dumped all over it. Guess the check got lost in the mail. Activating it tomorrow, didn't get the early version, will be making my own opinion then.

Rock Paper Shotgun have not given it a good review either - they seem to think its too narrative driven and not free form enough (ie it forces you down restrictive paths rather than letting you plan and play as you want)

I am still going to play it but this has dampened my mood towards it a little

I am just going to wait for the price to drop, there have been such a wealth of excellence lately that that probably won't take very long. From what I read it sounds like a good game.

Hmm, those reviews are not very encouraging.

Waiting for your take on it @Voigtkampf-sama
