This was released before the PS2 era so that is why there is no console port as there was no way in hell the PlayStation 1 or Nintendo 64 could have run this. Now that I think about it, it would have been cool to see them try and get this running on the Dreamcast. A huge part of the appeal of Hitman: Codename 47 at the time of its release was actually getting to play as a hitman.
The game is all about stealth and it will send you all over the world as you take out targets in your own style. For example, one level is set in a hotel and you have to take out a target and his two bodyguards. You have a few ways to go about this, but you can disguise yourself as a hotel employee to get into the room, take out the bodyguards, and then your target, all before hiding the bodies.
There is a nice variety to the missions and you have some fun weapons to use. I prefer the good old-fashioned silenced pistol, but you can assassinate people from a distance and even get up close and personal with a bit of strangling!
The most difficult aspect of Hitman: Codename 47 has to be the controls. This game was released in and around this time, developers were still getting to grips with fluid controls in 3D games. You will be fighting the controls a great deal in this game and until you get the hang of them, you probably will not be having a very good time. These controls will fight you every step of the way and that is my biggest problem with the game.
I remembered it being a bit rough around the edges, but in playing it again the controls are even worse than I remembered.
It is hard to be harsh on Hitman: Codename This is the game that started it all and there are some great ideas here which were better realized in the games that would follow. Playing as a hitman is fun, but you really do have to spend a great deal of time getting used to the controls. Usually, when you fail, you fail because of some kind of issue with the controls. If you have played the newer Hitman games, I would recommend going back and checking this out so you can see where the series began.
It was a bit of a graphical mess when it came out and the engine glitches are all the more apparent two years on - but there's still something deeply alluring about this amoral, hard-as-nails assassin simulation.
It's not exactly realistic - no one bats an eyelid at the piss-poor disguises that somehow turn a bald white killer into a Chinaman - and the controls are often clunky and uncomfortable. But it's amazing that this is still the best, some might say the only, representation of a fascinating profession one would think was tailor-made for games. The sequel ballsed it up completely by turning it into another save-the-world-from-terrorists cliche, but in this first outing you really are a cold-blooded killer garroting and sniping your way through levels to eliminate your target for money.
The story side of the game where you discover your origin and the meaning of the number 47 is best ignored as it detracts from the real-world feel of it all, and turns it away from the likes of Leon and Grosse Pointe Blank to more hackneyed game-fare.
The jungle levels suck too, but if you can find a cheat that lets you ignore those, there is a disturbing and original game to discover, even if it did fail to inspire other brave attempts at the genre. Cited as a mixture of Rainbow Six and Spec Ops, it is a third-person action game of espionage and assassination. Or Thief, with guns. Such throwaway comparisons are unfair, of course.
Hitman at least looks immediately better than both, and with real-world settings and 3D-accelerated graphics, it should do well on the back of the current trend for realistic military action games. Based across 20 locations, the game puts you in control of the eponymous assassin.
At the beck and call of a mysterious underground agency, missions will involve sneaking around and killing a fair few of the 80 individual characters. More than a simple waste 'em up, however, the game features a back story where the player finds himself covering up the illicit tracks of a mad genetic scientist.
Already the AI seems more than capable, with guards acting on both sight and sound. Unfortunately, we have no idea how long we'll have to wait for the final product. What a life, eh? Lounging around on roofs, popping off heads of state with high-powered sniper rifles; waltzing into media tycoons' mansions and pumping them full of bullets while hysterical blood-splattered children run screaming for the door The sheer joy and thrill of being a world-class hitman is unparalleled.
And guess what? Oh yes, The Daily Mail and other truth-and-justice-seeking tabloids will have a field day. Obviously, as far as we're concerned, the purely fictional world of the video game can be as twisted as it likes, and indeed, the gore content of Hitman appears to be adequate for the most devout Lee Harvey Oswald acolyte.
Of course, sensationalism and blood are often all you need to sell a game, and The Mail and The Mirror can kick up as much 'sick and evil' dirt as they like - any publicity is good publicity. But what gamers really want to know is: will it actually be any good? Well, on the premise that what we've seen is a cross between Thief: The Dark Project and Rainbow Six, the signs seem to indicate that it's going to be everything we could have hoped for.
There are more than 20 real-life locations to explore, with realistic architecture and accurately digitised environmental sounds, such as the distant rumble of cars on a nearby motorway, or the delicate sounds of children playing downstairs.
All this acoustic flamboyance is not just for show, either. Like Thief, you have to carefully ascertain whether the room you're about to enter is actually empty, or packed full of trigger-happy security guards who've already sussed your own clumsy approach. However, unlike Thief, you don't have to rely on arrows to do the dirty deed. A whole lethal range of shooters is available to you, and once the storyline begins to reveal the true reason behind your antisocial behaviour, you'll find even bigger and messier weapons at your disposal.
Developer 10 has promised 'a major twist in the plot'. Dead or unconscious bodies of Hitman's victims can be dragged away and hidden to avoid raising an alert.
Money earned from previous missions can be used to buy additional killing equipment. Hitman may also lose a part of his reward if he kills civilians on a mission.
