Oh!!!!   :P

I thought this was a gamepass game. I thought microsoft bought them at some point. Oops I need to pay more attention. So yeah, not going to buy it.

They bought themselves from Square Enix a few years ago. Which was actually like a decade ago, but it feels like 3.

Wow!

I mean this year hasn't had much so far, but that's great to hear.

Gonna wait till the price drops but it's definitely on my list. Love the hitman games so I don't care if the gameplay is more hitman or uncharted like.

Loved the opening Bond song sequence. Really good transitions, plus Lana Del Ray did great

Not bad at all. But I have no clue how much they need to break even, this game hopefully wasn't expecting 10 million or bust.

Wonder how much the bond license cost.

Finished in around 21 hours. Phenomenal game. Going to be hard to top for GOTY. Really hoping they can do a sequel as they have something special here.

Is it more action like uncharted or more hitman and steal style ?

As someone who bought Hitman 3 after playing First Light it definitely is way more action orientated like Uncharted. The combat flow reminded me of Uncharted and Quantum Break. There are open areas which are more hitman orientated but you're not changing disguises or anything like that. More how open it is approaching certain scenarios and deciding which way to tackle them. Some of the set pieces are very Uncharted like.

If you have the money you won't regret it. There aren't many games where I was gutted it ended. Also the tactisim adds replay value.

I have the money tbh but I just don't ever really justify buying new these days. I wait till price drops and honestly I have a huge backlog. With some pretty good games in it like spiderman 2, horizons FW DLC, the elden ring DLC, astro bot, and more.
