Not much of a stealth game
Where is the briefing? There is a 'briefing' but it's like 'hey, can you kill this bastard in blue jacket for me? he's in this building. Ok, thanks, see ya!'. Excuse me, but assassins know what they will be doing exactly. With every information they get. But hey, our Agent 47 knows everything! Good! But I don't. I managed to get past a few missions with much effort and I was irritated.
Next thing. This game is stealthy, but only at certain points. When you have to kill someone important, there are always tons of guards that can't be stealth assassinated. Bad thing in stealth game, don't You think?
Next major problem is that when you die, you must do mission from the beginning, no checkpoints etc. In longer missions, it's annoying.
Well, I have played this game for couple of days, not to long ago. And I say 'This game isn't enjoyable, this game is super-frustrating'.
For me, gameplay is most important. And in Hitman: Codename 47 it's below average.
