    If this Hitman has a design limitation, it's that maps don't evolve as much in response to assassinations as they could - it strains credibility that you can bump off three of four targets in Colorado without plunging the fourth into a panic. That aside, this is among the most expertly-made, engrossing stealth simulations of recent years, and a tale of A-listers meeting their comeuppance to give any Fortune 500 member the shivers. Agent 47 is back with a vengeance, and vengeance has seldom tasted sweeter. [Recommended]

While I can get some of the anger because of the episodic style of release I fell as if this payed off as this has made for one of the best stealth games in recent memory as there is show much packed into it despite it only being the first season of this game with the big open levels and the fact that you can do it in which ever way you like makes it on of the most replayable games I have touched this generation and the presentation is very well done with episode 2 being one of the best missions I have played in a game. If you love stealth and action games you need to at least give this a chance. Full Review »

    I will admit I was turned off at first when I heard this was going to be episodic as I had no clue how they would pull it off but now that theI will admit I was turned off at first when I heard this was going to be episodic as I had no clue how they would pull it off but now that the first season is out I can safely say that this was one of my favourite games of 2016 with just how well it was done and I now understand that it was made this way so that each location can have so much polish and stuff to do in it that I have been playing this game non stop since all episode came out and I am still finding stuff to this day. The locations are both some of the most beautiful I have seen and some of them have such great design to pull off each assassination in the way you desire. The choices you are given to preform the assassinations you want make this one of the most replayable games I have ever touched and it also made for some of the funniest moments I have experienced when you see all the bizzarethings you can get away with in the missions. I can keep phrasing this game but we be hear for hours so to close I think you need to buy this game if you are a fan of both stealth games and games that let you choose how to reach the objective and with all episode of season one out now there is not a better time to go pick this gem up especially with the announcement that a season 2 is being worked on.

    9.5 - Probably one of the best stealth games of all the time.

    Good/Amazing
    - Story/Targets
    - Gameplay
    - A.I is nuts (The best I've seen in a game, especially professional mode)
    - Tons of possibilities
    - Graphics/level design
    - Extreme replay value

    Bad/Worst
    - Load times (It's a little worse now , but at the launch it was terrible - still long though)
    - Some items like the last sniper are unlocked too late in the game, which compromises the fun of using them (since you are practically completing the entire game when you unlocked it)
    - Episodes? Please not this crap again
