Hitman Absolution

Hitman Absolution is one of those games which you cant stop playing. Hitman the series is always about Agent 47 going around assassinating and killing people wearing that stylish suit. The game offers many game play difficulties in which you can easily win in easy, but whats the fun in that? Maybe if you are not used to or never played FPS games before go for the easy but for people who played games like Max Payne 3, Far Cry 3 go for a higher difficulty. This game allows you to change costumes whether to become a cop to be able to hold firearms or just a regular chef in Chinatown. The majestic game play which is highly customisable works well with the high graphics capability to give you the most best silent killing game. You can go around killing people with AKs or shotguns but that would probably leave you dead in high difficulties and even take all the fun out of silent kills out of it. The story starts of as you Agent 47 trying to assassinate a lady called Diane Burnwood. You shoot her and as her last request she asks you to protect a girl called Victoria which you do. The story from then is about Agent 47 trying to find out why the agency had asked him to do such a action to Diane. This leads to Agent 47 going through alot of places which may vary from a wrestling arena to Chinatown. This game though tends to lack in excitement when you execute an assassination. If you played dishonored you would know how pumped up you would feel when you warp behind someone and take them out by surprise. The plot is quite bad at some points and neutral at the others. What i like is, like Dishonored, it has many ways to play the game. You don't need to go through one way to finish the game. You can climb through windows, run through sewers or even enter any room you like. This accessibility gives Hitman a break from the quite bad plot. Overall, i think that Hitman Absolution is   quite a good game. I have played it and well, i haven't stopped playing it yet.
