There are some games that come along that make you want to play them. Those reasons could be either the story, the concepts, or even the voice-overs. However, most of the times it is because some of those are intertwined along with the character that you play. Who would turn down being an elite and all around bada** hitman with a cool name like Agent 47. I am not really a fan of the series so I think that this would make me a good candidate to review this game.

Firstly, I played the first Hitman on the computer and then on PS2 in Hitman 2: Deadly Assassin. I tried but I just could not get past certain flaws that the game had. Not because I am picky, but because they really stick out. So here I am again trying in Contracts and I find there to be the same thing. I will compliment the game by saying that you do get to visit some of the most craziest places that actually exist especailly the sex-den. I will say that the game also gives you a bit more tactical feeling to it in allowing you options on your kills. But I just could not break the feeling that something was missing.

The graphics are not bad for what it is worth but the gameplay excels the first PS2 title. Although a bit clunky, there really isn't much more that I could say to put the game down except I felt detached from my character. The ending was a bit surprising but I just could not get into it. I think the game needs to be a bit more immersive as far as letting players really be a hitman and plan their hits and utilize evertying to their advantage.

It felt more like a ordinary action game to me that gives you some killing options but it was just flat. I felt like I have been here before but from some other game. Hopefully Blood Money will help change my opinion and finally let me be Agent 47.
