I was never able to play the HITMAN series on the PC though. Not a single one in this franchise. STEALTH is needed for this game, and it requires a lot of patience and careful planning, which I lack. I only like Action/Shooter games.

You can play the newer one more action like if you want however its very hard to do it that way unless you are very good aiming.

But its a fun game if you can give it some time. Especially the interesting ways you can come up with killing people.

Anyone play Control yet?

OK, thanks for your input. So are you talking about this game, HITMAN 2, or the previous one from 2016 ?

Both actually but its better to buy Hitman 2 and then get the first season added into it as it has more weapons, better graphics and more stories. The items from Hitman 2 can be used in Hitman 1 levels as well.

Just an example though:

No. Not yet. I'm just waiting for the Game to get cracked, haha....Just kidding. Anyways, have you played this game ? Is it similar to Quantum Break ? I don't like the female lead protagonist though.

There has been too much hype surrounding this Game. I'm more interested in Gears 5.

Thank you so much for the Video, and your reply. Going through it now.

Gavin really enjoys Hitman. Its actually fun to watch him play it as he will be really good and then mess up and goof off.

Haven't tried it yet but was interested in both the story and how it ran on mid range hardware... then TH came out with this article which helped a bit.

Great ! I will go through that game article.

Need to start saving a bit more...

Originally was looking at the Oculus S but really had my sights on this, glad there's a price/release date now as I was getting close to getting the Oculus and really wanted this Vive instead. The modding it allows looks interesting.

Yea when it comes to Steam I may consider buying it on sale. Will not buy it through Epic and I may not buy it even then due to the games CEOs reaction to people being unhappy about the Epic timed exclusive.

Yeah, even I'm against this Epic Games store/EGS. I don't understand why all Game developers are going for EPIC exclusive deals. Just because of Money, since the developers are going to get a greater share/profit from EPIC, unlike STEAM. This sucks.

But why drop support for STEAM ? This is ridiculous. We have to wait for 6 months or even a YEAR to play the EGS-exclusive on STEAM, when it releases on this platform. I"m skeptical to try EGS. I won't support this recent move from developers.

STEAM has always been the main PC gaming platform. Not releasing the Game on STEAM is a very bad and selfish move from the publisher/developer, IMO.
