The editors didn't like
Only one level
And it only lasts 15 minutes a go
But then it is free
Limited replayability
Still very much Hitman
Feels like an expansion
Rather than a full release
Story feels lacklustre
Lacks some of the flexibility of previous games on first play through

Abstract: It's also generally very difficult to do, which is perhaps why “pure” stealth games are few and far between. In most modern games, stealth is an optional mechanic in a broader experience such as Skyrim (which *just* missed out of our top 10). This list co...

Hitman 2 is an utterly sublime improvement over the previous outing. It's everything we know and love about Hitman, but with less episodic misery.The time it takes to complete is entirely up to you, based on the way you play and how much time you spend on...

Abstract: It's odd that so much of the thrill in Hitman 2 comes from the ways in which you don't kill people. As you walk around the game's gorgeously crafted locales, often populated by hundreds of NPCs, you'll pass countless opportunities for murder. A pair of sc...
Abstract: Despite boldly proclaiming its murderous intentions, Hitman 2 is as much about the avoidance of killing as the pursuit of it. Assassination is merely the full stop in a much longer, player-driven story that rewards careful planning and punishes thoughtles...

The quirks of what seem to be a last-minute rush out the door development strategy don't detract from the fact that each Hitman 2 level is wonderfully crafted and full of potential for inventiveness… and silliness...
Abstract: In a characteristically indirect show of political engagement, I spent much of this week's US mid-term elections wandering around Whittleton Creek, Hitman 2's idyllic slice of suburbia. If nothing else, there's a (more coherent) parody of Donald Trump can...
Hitman 2 introduces a wealth of meaningful new toys and systems, generously reshapes the first season with them, and then throws in a couple of sturdy multiplayer modes to boot...

While my time with Hitman 2 was brief, I'm confident that it's going to be another fantastic entry in the long-running stealth series. Mastering each sandbox requires a mixture of meticulous observation and trial and error gameplay, which is always going...
Hitman's episodic turn may not have been hugely successful for the company, but it showed the fanbase that the optimal way to play in this collection of assassination sandboxes is to digest it slowly, mulling over each individual hunt until you've mastere...
