Hitman: Blood Money - New Screens
There are no explanations for why Agent 47 is a year late, but fans will be pleased simply to hear that things are still chugging along. New screens.
Agent 47 may be a year late, but expectations for his new game, Hitman: Blood Money for PlayStation 2 and Xbox, are just as high as they were last spring when the game was originally supposed to come out. With the release date now finally approaching, Eidos is gathering its forces to boost the glabrous assassin back into the limelight, which means it's time for a new Web site.
The revamped Hitman: Blood Money site collects all the official information from the game, including a new trailer, giving you a better idea of what to expect.
In his latest outing, Agent 47 is again out for blood to further his financial growth, though things have been jostled. For instance, the visibility of your kills affects how you progress. So while you can mow down your mark with abandon, if you don't clean up after yourself your face will be in the papers, making your life generally harder.
There's still (!) no specific release date for Hitman: Blood Money, but Eidos' promise of this spring suggests that it won't be long now before the company gives fans a date to circle. For more on the game, visit the official site.
