Eidos Interactive, one of the world's leading publishers and developers of entertainment software, announces that the No.1 selling Hitman 2: Silent Assassin is to be released on GameCube. Since its release on PlayStation 2, PC and Xbox in October this year, the game has enjoyed worldwide success having shipped in excess of one million units. Hitman 2: Silent Assassin on GameCube is currently being developed by IO Interactive and will be released in Spring 2003.

Mike McGarvey, ceo of Eidos says: "GameCube owners worldwide are crying out for more mature content and Hitman 2: Silent Assassin fits the bill perfectly. The game has taken the world by storm and we are confident that this success will be repeated on the GameCube platform."

Janos Flösser, managing director of IO Interactive says: "With an installed base of millions, there is a massive potential audience for a game like Hitman 2: Silent Assassin. We are very impressed with the GameCube and feel that Hitman 2 and the Cube is a perfect match."

In Hitman 2: Silent Assassin you must enter the mind of a genetically engineered assassin Codename 47, whose deadly efficiency is now needed more than ever. Lured back into a global ring of deception, you must kill not only to make a living, but to continue living. This time it's not just business. It's personal.

The game's storyline begins in a Sicilian monastery. Codename 47 has been attempting to distance himself from his violent past, however the local criminal underworld discover his true identity and blackmail him into returning to his trade. Caught in the middle of a ring of deception, Codename 47 soon discovers that he has been manipulated and the hunter must now watch his back, as he has become the hunted.

Oooooooh another o called 'mature' title to add to the ever increasing list, should be good, saw an advert for this the other day and must say it looks most impressive.

Oh and if you didn't already know, an entirely new Serious Sam game's coming to Cube.

hitmans a wicked game, i cant wait. its one of the best first peson shoot emups this year. timesplitters diddnt really shape up to expectations, turok was quite a let down, 007 under fire was way too short, vendetta might have graphic problems and if nightfire turns out anything like its predeccesor he will have no decent shoot em ups on the GC! but now e can fell safe knoing that hitman 2 is in the bag for next year.

Timesplitters is superb, but that's my opinion.

>vendetta might have graphic problems

I thought Vendetta was gonna be crpa but I'm starting to like the look of it.

and if nightfire turns out

Nightfire's made by a different development to AUF and is looking like being a lot better than expected.

We've also got Medal of Honour and Jedi Knight to look forward to by the end of the year. Next year there's XIII which is shaping up to being somethig special, Metroid Prime need I say more about that little beauty, Serious Sam good PC series, Hitman 2 looking good, Return to Castle Wolfenstein which is another class shooter and probably more to be announced.

The Cube really has a packed schedule when it comes to 1st person shooters.

I think the whole kiddy mature thing is being mixed together now.
Maybe becuase gc is easier to develop on and cheaper and to more people that developer now make their "mature" games on it. And rare going to microsoft has put kiddy onto the xbox.

Cant wait for hitman2, it was predicted to do better than mario, but was beaten just.
