How can a mere assassin stand up against a Geisha.![]()
Due to the conversations of froggie and Bob, I will have to get this game today instead of closer to christmas when my bonus gets in.
Oh, who am I kidding? I was going to get the game pretty soon anyway.

I should instead be protesting my employers for not giving our bonus last week and instead delayed it until the 13th of December.

Yes. While I am encouraged by the console reviews here so far, I wonder if there will be a demo on this game when they port it. I havent been able to find the time to do much backround work on the title myself.Originally Posted by tibilicus

No spoilers please!
Reveiws are a bit mixed so far.
Some gave it fairly medicor others gave it a very good score. For those who have played it did you feel some thigns were sacraficed in the atempt to link and lead it further into a series of sequal games after?
My feeling is that a lot of a mixed reviews are down to the way reviewers played.Originally Posted by tibilicus
Spoiler discussion is fine as long as spoiler tags are used.
I did my second assassination stylishly.

Froggy that was cool, but I just noticed there is an achievement for doing the stealth kill (x in low profile mode) on a main target...
Anyone worked out how to do the jumping kill (x in high profile mode) from above the target? Is it just a case of getting close enough?
To be honest most of my assassinations have devolved into a chase and/or big sword fight with numerous guards during which I kill the target and then make off... Much like my first run though of Hitman, only with more swords...
Hint rather than spoiler...

I did. I can't see them releasing a PC demo when they won't release one for the 360.Originally Posted by Odin
Perhaps they'll go the way of a late demo though, in that case the PC might get one too. But I wouldn't bet on it.

I don't see them releasing a demo when a major part of the game is freedom of action. Maybe if they limited the area, but even then, it wouldn't be a good representative, in my opinion. It's like GTA games. No demos for those.
And, anyway, if they did make a demo, it would take them time. And I'd prefer to have the game itself ASAP.
