Hitman is and always will be the perfect game
(hexbear.net)
I've played 2, contracts, blood money on loop. Absolutely nothing beats these games for pure sandbox level fun. Its all iconic and i know the perfect silent assassin route through every level organically through my own discovery with no guides.
I played these games hundreds of times over. Fuck absolution. Also i love splinter cell it peaked at chaos theory the absolute best shader model 3.0 game ever to exist
I really enjoyed the reboot series that started in 2016, but Io getting bought out like 3 times led to the games being really annoying to actually purchase. If I wanted to play Hitman 1 and 2* in Hitman 3's updated engine I'd need to buy them all over again IIRC.
*Obviously you can pirate them, and apparently there's even a mod to add back progression while playing offline now!
The reboot games look really well made but the buying just looks confusing every time so i just don't. I could pirate but even that feels like it would be complicated stitching together content to make one complete experience. Maybe I'll do it one day but the episodic idea really killed the momentum of that reboot. Thanks square penis
Here is a full pack of the whole thing on windows
Here is the same thing for linux
They also take up infinite storage space :(
