Do you know if you were to play the game on a higher difficulty level, would there be more objectives? Or would the gaurds be more accurate and more numerous?

That first level,i tried to be as stalthy as possbile, but it seems that when you walk stealthy (tap L quickly) you cant actually catch up with a guy walking normal pace. And if you try and walk up behind them, they seem to turn round just at the worst time. lol, the guy turns round and your crouched behind him with a fiber wire. hes like "what the hell you doing here?" ... im like "#dum de dum#, Im Gus, the loverbale chimney sweep, clean as a whistle, sharpe as a thistle ;)" "security" "doh".

Then i end up doing the level just walking about firing, not really bothing with stealth, though hiding next to doors when people walk through them is a nice move. If you dont know what i mean, then you should. Like when someone opens the door from the other side of the wall, makesure it opens and you are on oneside of the door and he is on the other.... well its one of the best ways for killing guards easily and stealthaly.

I reakon that www.ign.com would have a guide for it by now. But as its IGN you will probably have to be one of their little member things where you pay 20 dollers a month for bullsheeet.

As the postman: once you give the flowers to the maid, the guard follows her and you have a chance to seek off through the door on the left - that keeps the undetected stealth going for a bit.

In the manual it says you can go through each mission undetected, and I've achieved this on a few missions.
On the party at the hotel mission, I managed to complete it by just killing the ambassador, the General, a maid, and the secret agent. Keeping it to a minimum is definately more satisfying.

I took the delivery boy uniform and went downstairs into the basement instead of through the door inside to the kitchen.
Waited for the lady to walk away and grabbed the bloke outside the kitchen door (outside of the villa), nicked his clothes and then was free to wander about the villa.
Capped a few people, got the Mafia Don and then went mental with a shotgun.

Does anyone know of an online guide to the game ? I'm finding the levels easy to do if I blast through them....but I could do with a few pointers to play it stealthily. On the first level I've found the delivery man disguise can only get as far as the kitchen, the postman can only reach the main lobby where the maid takes the flowers, and taking out a bodyguard for the disguise means you can only get onto the second floor.

The only thing I've found is the sniper rifle is in the garage but hte ammo is in a room near the kitchen, maybe theres a way of doing the level very differently with this ?

LOL yeah that bit screwed me a bit, i kept exploding myself with the mini-bomb. Ok what i found you can do is go to the thin wall.. then choose the bomb in your inventory so you have it in your hands. Then press R. It will then say 'bomb is armed'. After this, just Press B to drop it. It too kmy a few minutes and alot of explosions to work it out.

Then after dropping the bomb with the B button, just walk out of the room and press R when you have the remote selected. After this you can run out into the sewers with that green blokey. But you better just peg it cos loads of guards will run out after you.

The level after that is a beaut. Going into this embassey ball thing. I just get into the game soo much walkinging around with a silenced 9mm pistol, just casually executing people in the head. Then childishly legging it to the exit... hehehe

I've got the XBOX version, and I've completed it. Bought it on Friday - finished it on Monday - I've been playing it non-stop. Excellent game.
