If you’re a fan of the Hitman series or stealth games in general, then prepared to be amazed by just under seventeen minutes of fresh Hitman: Absolution footage starring assassin-for-hire Agent 47. Danish developer IO Interactive has clearly taken inspiration from Batman: Arkham Asylum to create a tense and atmospheric experience with plenty of scripted sequences and multiple ways to approach each level.
Hitman: Absolution has been in development for over two years and is scheduled for a 2012 release on PS3, Xbox 360 and PC. This fifth entry in the Hitman series utilises IO Interactive’s proprietary Glacier 2 engine, which appears to be particularly adept at rendering highly detailed environments with incredible lighting and realistic physics.
Take a look at the gameplay video below and let us know how excited you are for Hitman’s long-awaited return.

SUPER EXCITED!!!
Sweet, can't wait to get home and watch the trailer, as i won't be able to watch it at work uninterrupted. But i can't wait for this game.
16min!!?? ooh i got to watch this! but before i do, first i have to shave my head bold and put a suit & tie on! ;)
What a great game this will be
this game is going to rock, i don't know how else to put this, its going to be pure awesomesauce.
a little off topic who has seen the 12min vid of BF3 gameplay http://www.battlefield.com/battlefield3/blog/bf3-12-minutes-of-gameplay
Ok back to the game play it reminds me of the latest Splinter Cell game, has the same mechanics, now we definitely know this game is going to be good
oooo BF3 gameplay looks really awesome. Hitman looks really good and i'm starting to get really excited about this game. wonder if they will put coop into this one......nah, it will just destroy the game. its one of those games that will be single player forever. unless they figure a way out to do it. Like....maybe 2 hitman going after the same target and you'll need to see who gets to him first.. just an idea.....
nice one POItjie
I like to come up with new game ideas. I'm trying to see if i can start making my own games. (trying to follow in the footsteps of my uncle). Busy studying C# etc to get there. my first game project I'd like to do is a Top down shooter or something.
go for it POItjie! dreams can come true :)
That's right, Dreams can come true. the ultimate dream me and Smuroh has is to open a proper gaming and IT store in Durban, as we feel like its lacking here. and the other dream is to have an rAge like Expo in Durban and then in Cape Town. We want to take over the world......
