    I never saw the appeal of the hitman games, I never could get into them. I was assured the story is great, but the gameplay never got me going.

    Well I had a go on it, it was okay but as Bindi said, the gameplay isn't the best. also has anyone else had trouble setting the res? It only seems to work correctly in 1024*768 any higher and it just makes a black border(like a telly) around 1024*768 :S

    I loved hitman 2. Contracts was a real let down. Maybe I'll have to try this one out.

    I can tell you these things about full retail:

    There are NO res issues. I ran at 1280x960 the whole way
    Gameplay is a step up from contracts. NO ripped missions
    The "accident" system is a joke, and if you're sloppy enough to be seen, you deserve the noteriety.

    Yer i thought that but i played all three and the fact that Contracts didnt have the (sick yet) cool ability to massacre a few hundredd people every level, and in Contracts it wasnt that big, the replaying of the mission from the other games was good but was just a "we dont know what to do" story line. The levels did have the feel of the first and second games and there was just something not there.

    i get around 40 fps on 1024*768 with like 4xAA + Adaptive AA + 16xAF but since this game is quite slow paced it doesn't really bother me.

    Yep, and beaten it. You have to go to the far end of the medical ward. There will be two orderlys in an office, all you need to do is get rid of one, or both. Then, head through the door at the back, there's a room with all sorts of metal platforms and whatnot, with one more Orderly on the floor. Whack him. One of the doors will have your agent. Use it on him.

    It does the same when I run it at 1440x900 on my MacBook Pro. In game is absolutely fine though, although the MacBook gets horrifically hot.
