Excellent game. Aren't quite feeling what NGC seemed to like about it quite yet, but it is pretty good fun, and also techinicly sublime.
Done the first level (gaem involves A LOT of patience) and got a proffessional rating, after my first try of 'Gun for hire' as I massacred all and sundry.
I reccommend. Now on St. Petersburg, and it looks lurvly.

It's right at the back of the building on the first floor, in the same room as your equipment.
That's the easiest level to get silent assasin me thinks, did it first time.

On that Japanese Level where you are trying to get into the castle, is there anyway of going up into the sniper towers? It would be great to just sniper every1 from up there, I checked the whole way around the tower but there is no door, strange how the snipers got up there.
I'm currently on 'The death of hannelore' (where you kill the doctor) but it says you need the key for the hiding place, where the hell is the key!
And
I've been trying to get silent assaian on the motorcade levl, got very close but I think the gaurds were alerted when I took the shot!
And I still haven't got any of the rewards when i'm certain I've got at least one silent assaian if not 2 or 3!
How the hell do you access 1st person mode?
Just been on IGN and found out that Eidos announced Hitman 3 a while back, it's coming out in 2004.
Every time I turned around on that mission there seemed to be a new set of guards. Before I blew up the bunker I had a quick look around and there were bodies and blood stains every where. I must have eliminated well over 150 people by the end of the mission. Thank god that they didn't include a ratings system. I would be horrified to to know what mine was after that mission :)
That mission was mint.
One minute he is snorting about 2lb of crack and the next he takes about 1 gazzillion bullets before continuing to fight :)
That was a purely no stealth mission in the end for me and when I got to the drug dealers house I just cracked out the weapons and executed everyone. Picking up the chain gun and gust walking around offloading thousands of bullets was amazing fun.
Did you ever get to the hotal mission with the naked fat man in the shower? It was just like playing a movie. Killing the bell boy for the room door signs and key. Placing the sign on his door. Going to the flourist to pick up the gun hidden in the flower case. Jumping over the balcony and executing his guards... etc!
Loved every minute of that game :)
