With Hitman: Blood Money just days away from coming out in the US, I think it's time to remind you again why Agent 47 is such a badass (just in case you didn't get enough from my Codename 47, Silent Assassin, and Contracts reviews).
Normally, in other games, they'll be strict with what you should and shouldn't be doing. If you stray from following the mission the way that game wants you to do it, they'll let you know, or worse, you'll fail the mission over something small and start all over (hey, Splinter Cell, how's it going?). That's not the case with Agent 47. Of course, you'll have to complete the objectives to finish the mission, but you can approach a mission almost anyway you want, and you won't be punished for it. Hell, in the majority of the missions, the only way you CAN fail is to die. So, that just goes to show how much freedom you're getting.

Yeah.


Agent 47 doesn't just quit and run when something little like an alarm going off scares him. He keeps going, like the badass that he is. If he sees a dozen bodyguards come rushing to his location, that don't mean squat. He'll take them all out in a matter of seconds with his powerful, silver ballers.

I keep bringing this up, I know. But I still consider it one of 47's greatest achievements.

I mean, COME ON! 132 ninjas!
