A film adaptation of the successful gaming series is heading to Hollywood and is set. But setting that as an expectation doesn’t change the fact that the WoA does render the older titles obsolete and unplayable for me, and that’s more a testament to how brilliant the WoA is rather than a dig against the older games. Hitman: Blood Money PlayStation 2 at GameSpy - Check out the latest. I’ve been a fan of the Hitman series since 2004, but it feels like it only truly arrived once the WoA was created, and all the previous titles (including my previous favourite Blood Money) now feel like interesting-but-unplayable early prototypes compared to the way that the WoA finally delivers against the promise of the franchise.ĮDIT - should just quickly say that, of course, this is to be expected as technology and game design naturally improves over time. The WoA stepped up to the plate though, and gave us both the amazing concepts of the earlier games, and also for the first time the technical and mechanical tools to make those concepts a reality for its players.
IMO, prior to the WoA, Hitman games had the very best ideas and concepts in video gaming, but (ironically) not the best execution. The WoA trilogy has blown that away now though, and it did all the way back from the initial release of Paris in March 2016. Yep, I’ve been on board since Contracts and prior to 2016, Blood Money was by far my favourite game in the series.
