Hitman Absolution (Preview)
Hitman: Absolution reveals its professional side.This week, after a long leave of absence, Hitman: Absolution reappeared before the press. The game's first showing at E3 won a truckload of plaudits and generated excited chatter from everyone apart from veteran fans of the series, many of whom lamented Agent 47's apparent rebirth as a psychotic cop-killer. In what may well have been a calculated move to address these concerns, yesterday's demo presented 47 as the very model of professionalism. Actually, that's only half the story: in keeping with the approach employed for Deus Ex: Human Revolution, IO and Square Enix opted to show the same level twice - first as a near-invisible agent of stealth, and then as a unstoppable force of precision violence.I'll be exploring many of the new mechanical revelations in an upcoming feature, but for now the important thing to note is that it's perfectly viable to play the game in a manner that recalls the Agent 47 of old. I'd hesitate to call it a 'pacifist' approach, but you're certainly under no obligation to go all Robert Rodriguez on the local opposition.
Hitman: Absolution Preview (Preview)
In the six years since the last Hitman game, Blood Money, we've had a return to form for Deus Ex, two Splinter Cell games, two incredible Batman games, and four Assassin's Creeds. Each introduced new mechanics and gadgetry to the game of sneaking around and beating up bad guys until whatever you're looking for (justice, money, candy, etc.) comes out. Hitman: Absolution is being developed by a team that's clearly played all of those. The influence of those games is reflected in some similar abilities that are now built into 47's repertoire -- such as brutal compound fracture-inflicting takedowns and an "instinct" vision that lets him see through walls for a short amount of time. But 47 hasn't been watered down into some kind of hairless Sam Fisher clone -- he's still got his own style of silent murder. For example, in this demo, IO Interactive showed off that he remains the only stealth assassin who leaves a trail of nude bodies in his wake as he steals their clothing and uses it to sneak past their friends. IO's developers demonstrated 47's new assassinatin' moves (using the PlayStation 3 version) by having him first silently, and then not-so-silently work his way through a gang of comically evil thugs in a Chicago orphanage/hospital to reach a young girl before they do.

Is this the Hitman game fans wanted? We assess the E3 demo.Hitman: Absolution was one of the key games of this year's E3. The wall outside Square Enix's presentation room was adorned with "Game of the Show" nominations, but these trophies merely acted as physical confirmation of what was already patently obvious: Agent 47 has become the most popular slaphead since Michael Stipe, and next year's reboot is going to be a very big deal indeed - for IO Interactive, for Square Enix, and for the gamers everywhere. Especially the bald ones.While the Hitman series has been around for a decade now, it's fair to say that past entries have arrived without the fanfare that currently surrounds Absolution. It's not hard to see why the current game has such electric buzz, however: it looks exceptionally slick, with a moody art style and a load of violent new tricks for our folically-challenged felon. In short, it has all the flash and swagger required to be a major event in the action game calendar - and yet long-time fans may be less perturbed by Agent 47's homicidal antics than by his forthcoming mutation.At the start of the E3 demo, our domed assassin finds himself surrounded by the police in an ancient, dusty library.
