What I then looked forward, when I 2 is an announcement about Hitman in the shell of Silent Hill: Contracts found. Finally back to rise in the role of cult killer, and do new orders. Months went by, and with every week grew, the demands on the game, after all, is expected to result from the continuation of a popular cult game series which particularly. I think because I everyone will beifplichten. One expects large and small technical innovations, new weapons, good ideas, and a lot of "wow" effects that keep a happy. As Hitman: Contracts but then eagerly awaited eintrudelte with me, and I started playing it, I felt to say the least kidding, because this is not a new game, new ideas or innovations, but merely a kind of "Best of Hitman 1 & 2 ". I want to bring this out in more detail: Under a lax "Courtesy Story" (number 47 is seriously injured, and "durchträumt" delirious his past jobs), it is incoherent reprocess various missions from Hitman 1 and Hitman 2. These were only spruced up, differ from the originals from Hitman 1 and Hitman 2 but barely, because in addition to the fact that Hitman: Contracts is merely a rehash of the first two parts, not even the engine has been reworked, and almost completely unchanged from the second part adopted. Only smoke / blood effects have been revised, and there is a "blur effect" (Cover your effect "), the frantically trying to" to conceal angularity "of elderly engine, but this is not working particularly the fact that Hitman.: Contracts is technically a complete laggard, constantly remains obvious. I'm not a "graphics freak", but I think that if you do have a "remake" of previous parts, you could use an improved engine, at least to keep the player at least through attractive appearance in good spirits. But no, it did not deem it necessary, the developer. As I ask myself only: What have the developers in the idea of Hitman: Contracts thought? The fact that the community is so unassuming that improved blood effects alone are sufficient to make even a systemlos ragtag "repeat the previous" successful? Anyway: A "must-have" is Hitman: Contracts for people who are already part 1 and part 2 on the shelf, absolutely not, because really new missions, among the 12 available pieces, you can easily fit to a Hand count. Rather, I put it to my heart people who have not had prior contact with the Games of the Hitman series, because Hitman: Contracts, (up to vanishingly few new orders) a kind of large "demo" of Part 1 and Part 2. Who has never played a game of the Hitman series, will not be disappointed, and with Hitman: Contracts may even get an appetite for the predecessor.
