Hitman: Absolution

Hitman: Absolution is the 5th instalment of the Hitman series. Once again, 47 is hired by the agency to do work for them, though the tables turn when he is instructed to kill his former mentor Diana. Diana tells 47 to protect a young girl who is an experiment, such as 47.

Gameplay-the game is stealth-based, so that means; sneaking around, silently taking down guards and killing the primary target. There is also a cover system which has saved my arse more than once, and finally being introduced: the ability to dual wield any single handed firearm. most of the game is spent garrotting guards, dragging them to a dumpster, taking their clothes, and dumping the body.

Graphics-the graphics are decent, however I've seen greater, but not bad for a game by IO Interactive. the textures are well done in everything; NPC's, environment and objects. though most of the game, 47 has a band-aid on the back of his head and he looks weird without his signature barcode, he looks just like a regular bald guy.

Story-one word: entertaining. yes, I have found a game with a story that I like. I have noticed, around Victoria, 47 seems to be a father-figure and that is probably because he suffered the same. the nice-long missions are a real gem to the story, however the levels are more linear than the previous Hitman games

Overall, the game is beyond impressive and I would gladly recommend it to anyone if they enjoy stealth/action games. I hope you enjoyed the review, goodonyaz
