It's annoying how they keep re-releasing the series, but always skip the first game because it was only released on the PC. Not that it's the best game in the series or anything, but still. Calling it a trilogy feels a bit like releasing a Star Wars Trilogy with Episodes 2-4.

 

It'll be worth getting for anyone who missed out on Blood Money, at least. Contracts is also pretty good. And I guess anyone who enjoyed Absolution might enjoy the awful Silent Assassin with its useless disguises and lack of save points. :p

I want to play those games. After what Absolution did to the series, it would be nice returning to the freedom of Hitman 2 (which has useful disguises - as long as you didn't move out of the area the original person is supposed to be in - and save points based on difficulty).

 

It would be nice if they fixed bugs, but I doubt it.

Why the bloody hell does this not include the first game? And why isn't it slated for Wii U either? (Would love to be able to play these in bed!)

 

Answer to both: The amount of work it takes to port games to a new system.

I think they should just re-release Blood Money. The rest of the games aren't really worth playing again after that game, anyway. They could call it the Hitman Ultimate Collection.

But they have to port all the other games to a new system anyway!

 

They always ignore the first game when it comes to series re-releases. It's just like HOTD1 :(

Goddamn all these trilogies that I gotta get now! Awesome!

 

... Though I did suck at hitman in the past. Perhaps my older, more stealth-inclined self will do better. Splinter Cell trilogy (quadrilogy?) too, please.

That's already been released on the PS3. Another reason to get one, Jay!

 

It only includes the first three games, but Double Agent was by far the worst of the stealthy Splinter Cell games, so who cares.

I think I got Double Agent for $5 (£3.50ish - I know that's not your currency, Magnus, sorry :P) and had to stop playing after 5 mins because it was hurting my eyes.

 

It's approaching next-gen season so I'll wait and see about that sort of thing!

Isn't Hitman:Contracts supposed to be a retelling of the first game, because the first one was so bad?

 

(Genuine question, here. This is the sort of thing I only heard in passing)

It has a couple of missions from the first game, but isn't a retelling.

 

I keep thinking I need this HD collection, when I already have all three on PC (and, thus, in HD).
