    Glitchy game that makes you work too hard for very little reward.

    Another PS2-XBOX-XBOX 360 port. Bland graphics, bad animations and wonky controls and animations. The A.I. is absolutely retarded and atrocious. People say it's soooo open ended, but in the end if you don't do the levels the exact right way, you will fail or die repeatedly. Skip it and buy an actual 360 game or an Arcade game like Geometry Wars since even it looks better.

    A solid 7. The gameplay is brilliant, and the densely packed areas provide you with a wonderfully immersive playground for you to exploit. While the game is tooth pulling standards hard, so much so that you will start to get angry, it provides hardcore gamers with a great challenge. The game is a bit buggy, but nothing that is game-breaking. Aside from that, the game gives you a feeling ofA solid 7.

The game is a bit buggy, but nothing that is game-breaking. Aside from that, the game gives you a feeling of being an assassin, as you sneak through. I can sincerely recommend this game to any fan of the stealth genre.… Expand

    Displaying the usual blend of stealth, strategy and third person shoot 'em up, Blood Money contains all of the ingredients of the previous Hitman games, but the semi-sandbox format relies too much on trial and error and the graphics are showing their age. A decent but not essential addition to the series.

    If you're a Hitman fan, Blood Money will make you fall in love all over again, and if you never dipped your toes in 47's particular brand of wetwork yet, the time has never been more ripe. [June 2006, p.74]

    With Eidos' latest foray into professional assassination, players will have to dig deep, wading through mission after mission of trial-and-error gameplay to hunt down a series of targets. [June 2006, p.49]

    If the impressive visual enhancements, tighter controls, more coherent narrative and bigger production values don't draw you in, the thoughtful level design and degree of freedom will keep you coming back for more. Best yet? Bloody right.
