Hitman: Absolution Trailer Shows In-Engine (if not In-Game) Action

Unread postby News Portal » 13 Dec 11, 11:42 am

IO Interactive have dropped the new trailer for [app=8269]Hitman: Absolution[/app], fresh outta the VGA's. Purportedly rendered entirely in the new "Glacier 2" engine (what's with these ice-themed engine names?), the trailer shows the eponymous Agent 47 brutally killing a whole lot of people, as well as shots of a sometimes-dead, sometimes-alive woman who one assumes is his ICA handler Diana Burnwood. Enjoy! Somewhat confusedly, as I also did.

I guess I shouldn't just post an image. I dunno, I get the feeling that the puzzle game hidden in the skin of an assassination game has gone.

Hitman trailer without ave maria isn't a Hitman trailer :P

The last Hitman I played was the one where you can wake him up at the end (Blood Money??) Silent Assassin was my favorite of them all though.

Will give this game a go simply because its a good series hell even the movie was ok considering most if not all game movies suck.

TBH no need to write the game off entirely before you even play it because of a few videos you have seen people come on.....

Oh my sweet jesus this looks absolutly awsome!!

the part where hes trying to get away from the heli the lighting and physics is way better than bf3

and when he comes out to the street, you bet your sweet arse thats in game because i remember the carnival level i was so impressed with the amount of people on the street really adds to the realism
