The Hitman series is one of the biggest names in the action / adventure genre, and has a lot to live up to. Albeit a year late, Hitman: Blood Money looks to be just as good as its predecessors.

In this edition of Hitman: Blood Money, members of the ICA, the agency he belongs to, begin to systematically be taken down one by one. As he loses contact with the ICA he feels that he's next on the chopping block. Packing your bags and heading to the good old USA, your adventures will take you through many American landmarks, most notably Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and New Orleans. Being paid in cold hard cash, you have the choice to do whatever you choose with your money. This means you can upgrade to the next set of deadly weapons, or spend your money bribing the Police to clean up any mistakes you may have made.

Your notoriety plays an important role in your progression throughout the game. You can choose to play stealthy, and live the normal life of a hitman (however normal that might be). Conversely, you can also make the decision to kill everything in your path, but don't expect to walk down the street unnoticed. Your notoriety is what distinguishes you from being known as either the best hitman in the world, or just another wanted murderer. As your notoriety goes up with botched hits, guards and other NPC's will begin to notice you and react to you accordingly. However, you are given the opportunity to clean up any jobs that go awry. Removing CCTV tapes, disposing of witnesses, and cleaning up any dead bodies that might be left are just a few options you will have as you progress through the game.

You can currently pre-order the game now at anyone of your favorite boutiques.
