Fun:   
Firstly, let's get the marketing side of my review out of the way. Essentially you're paying £15 for four top class, extremely enjoyable games. Truthfully, I could leave the review here as that should be enough for anybody, but let's delve deeper......

You play the role of Agent 47, in the employ of a shadow company of Assassins. The capital letter is important, as you're not merely a sniper on the Grassy Knoll, no indeed. You are a hand-picked, trained since childhood, genetically modified Assassin. Oh yes. The games focus on giving you a variety of hard-to-get-to targets with a variety of interesting ways to bump them off. Will you resort to sniping them from a distance, for example, or will you incapacitate key personnel and assume their identity in order to infiltrate and get up close and personal? Perhaps you'll abandon or stash all your weapons for a stealth entry, or load up on firepower to batter your way through? In the case of Blood Money especially, maybe you'll arrange for a fictional gun shot to in fact be a real one, or for a chandelier to drop on the head of an unsuspecting target?

See people, it really is this dynamic. You actually find yourself thinking like a Hitman - "well if I stash my weapons in there, then I'll be clear from the search at the entrance and then I can pick them up once inside, then I take this guy out while he's away from the guards, assume his identity and get close enough to be able to......." and so on. The ambience and music of the game is engaging and at best enthralling, and the whole deal basically radiates atmosphere.

Things aren't all rosy; for example the AI can be noticeably thick, and seem to like forming an orderly queue for your bullets in firefights. There are the occasional stability issues also, but nothing that will seriously compromise things. Savegame-wise.....well I'm afraid Quicksavers will be disappointed. On the decent difficulty levels your saves are limited, and you'll need to be pretty good to come through some levels without using them all.

But faults aside, you'd be daft not to invest in this. Graphics, though dated now, are still impressive and level design is intelligent and realistic. Gameplay is enjoyable, repeatable with variations, and challanging when it needs to be. You get to be a Professional Assassin, or as near as; How can you lose?

Fun:   
The Hitman games follow a simple but brilliant premise: you are an assassin with one or more targets on a map full of security personnel, civilians and all sorts of places to go and things to use to accomplish your objectives. You can assume the identity of others by rendering them unconscious (or dead) and stealing their clothes. Highly interactive and open ended (especially the fourth title, Blood Money) this approach creates a massive amount of re-playability, and considering we're talking about four games, that makes this a serious bargain.

Although there are certainly some missions where there is an obvious way to complete your objectives, for the most part there are plenty of different opportunities to get close to your target. You could dress as one of his / her bodyguards, you could sneak in as a delivery boy or a tourist or one of many other different guises including pool cleaners, rednecks, waiters and loads more. Once next to your victim, you can utilize the environment to fake an accident (such as food poisoning, a pyrotechnics accident or a weak chandelier fixing to name a few). Of course, a few bullets from a silenced pistol do the job just as well. In fact, you are welcome to blast your way through the levels with a machine gun if your attention span should wane! The games are full of dark humor, with plenty of opportunities for creating your own (ever gone on a killing spree dressed in a clown suit before?) and the gameplay is unique and entertaining.

Obviously, the older games aren't exactly polished in modern terms but are still highly enjoyable nonetheless. Probably my personal favorite game series of all time.

ignore the tech stuff 15 Mar 2011
Fun:   
All games are superb. Ignore the specs and techs stuff, ALL games work on both vista, XP and win7.

Codename 47: the beginning. I loved this when it came out and its still good. Slight problem with the resolution but all the game script works better than ever.

Silent Assassin: the sequel. In my opinion the best game. Excellent, no problems.

Contracts: the third game/flashbacks: REALLY good to see the original missions remade and restyled. May slow down if you have a windows sidebar or similar device active on your desktop.

Blood Money: the final game. Much better than the PS2 version. Slow if you have a "too-sophisticated" graphics card. Don't ask why but its better with a not-so-up-to-date graphics card.

overall: easy to install, easy to use, maybe not best to have all games installed at the same time, but thats just me and my shippy laptop
