"...they get their hands on this game and are able to fulfill their wildest Hitman fantasies.”

Anyone else get aroused from this statement?

I'm somewhat a pessimist so my bet is this will turn out a lot like Gun for the 360. Inflated price, last gen graphics. I hope I am proven wrong.

I agree refinedsugar. I say this will be nothing more than a port like Farcry Instincts Predator. There will be a few graphical enhancements in the water and lighting/draw distances, but the characters, weapons, textures, and maps will all be nothing more than last gen quality at a higher resolution. The game is being developed using the same engine as the previous 2 games I believe, probably the same engine as the new tomb raider, which is also coming to the 360 with SLIGHTLY improved visuals.

Honestly, I can't wait until the current generation dies, or at least until the PS3/Revo come out. Then finally ports/cross platform titles will sport some decent graphics. GRAW was an exception because ubisoft worked it for the 360 from the ground up.

I'm not dissing the 360, I love the system, but I feel like instead of coming up with new content visually for the 360, developers are just taking advantage of the fact that right now, anyone with a 360 will gobble up any game for it just because it's for 360, thus they are just porting a game over, giving it some low-level graphical workovers, and charging another $10 for it. The result is the market gets flooded with ported current gen games that really don't look all that different from the current iterations. The same would have happend had any other console launched this far ahead of the competition. It's because of these events that I have gotten gamefly. Soon enough though, the cheap ports will stop. I'm not getting a PS3, but for the sake of good graphics in cross-platform games on my 360...next november can't come soon enough.

But...I agree, hopefully they'll prove me wrong, probably not though. The way developers are spitting these ported games out for the 360, those XNA tools must really make it simple to port games to like they say.

Here we go again.. Another game developed on last-gen hardware and then they spend a few months giving it that "next-gen graphics look" that really is nothing but a toss off and then sell it for next-gen prices. Sorry EIDOS you aren't gonna sucker me on this one.

Hey would anybody believe that the new ps3 will have better graphics than the 360? I was wondering because I have heard that games like this look so similar to the xbox and have no new next gen look? which console will be the best for viewing pleasure in terms of graphics?

IM GLAD IS COMING OUT SINCE LAST YEAR I BEEN SEARCHING THE WEB ON THIS SUBJECT . I WANTED TO KNOW IF HITMAN WAS COMING OUT FOR THE 360 . NOW THAT WE KNOW IS COMING ICANT WAIT TO BUY THE GAME . I DONT HAVE THE 360 BUT IAM PLANNING ON GETTING IT SOON. EVERYBODY IS HERE TALKING BAD ABOUT THE 360 NOW I KNOW THE 360 DOES NOT HAVE MANY GAMES. SINCE THEY RUSH THE SYSTEM AND PUT OUT ON THE MARKET TO SOON. BUT THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS THE XBOX 360 IS THE HOTTEST THING OUT RIGHT NOW. AND SO WHAT IF LAST GENERATION GAMES ARE BEING REALESED FOR THE 360. IF THE GAME IS HOT IM PLAYING IT IS ALL ABOUT THE GAMES. AND HITMAN BLOODMONEY IS THE GREATEST THING TO COME OUT SINCE GRAND THEFT AUTO SAN ANDREAS . SO YOU KNOW IM GETTING HITMAN BLOODMONEY

WTF? How come all of you 'gamers' perfer console? CONSOLE SUCKS AND WILL NEVER BE AS GOOD AS A COMPUTER. Yeah, 360 looks slick but deck out a killer gaming PC and you'll blow it away w/ performance as well as player controllability / customization.

I only pray that gaming developers don't get suckered into to 'kiddie' market of computer games by going with the money makers instead of a truly great game concept.

Hitman is one of the most creative and immersive games ever brought to the gaming market. Let's hope they stay true to the real power of PC's and not static/fixed platforms that cannot be upgraded / tweaked in the hopes of corporate profits.
