I was kind of bored with the style of the trailer at first, wishing we'd just see some more gameplay or something, but as it went along it got me more and more interested in what was being said.
Really hoping this game will live up to previous entries. The replacement of the original 47 voice actor is the biggest strike against it so far for me, but I'm hoping it doesn't ruin the experience...

Well a lot of people have complained about 47's voice so who knows maybe they will listen.

Getting bored of the ending bit with 47 shooting in the dark, first time was ok but now its getting old like when the BF3 vids always ended with that noise/music.

I wasn't expecting anything like that screenshot. Makes me excited that there'll be more than just dark city environments (which is what I was expecting initially).

Oh shit. At first I thought some of that footage was live-action.
I know it was just a cg trailer, but that was extremely well-made. The choreography for the action was excellent. If that were a movie scene, it'd easily rank pretty high for me as action scenes go.
And it is good to also see that the Hitman series' penchant for over-the-top enemies is still present (rather than just converting to a bunch of "realistic" stuff).
A gang full of nuns; that totally feels like a Contracts or Blood Money idea, which is very good.

Seems like I'm the only one replying to any of this. :lol:
Still, I was impressed by the video. Same old Hitman gameplay, and that's nothing but a good thing. Good to see yet more variety in environments, as opposed to just dark city stuff, as I mentioned before. I was kind of impressed by the graphics too. The demo was probably just running on a high-end PC or something, so I don't know if it'll look that good for the console releases, but the crowds and the detail in the environments looked really good. Individual models aren't all that impressive, but hey, with so much else on screen it's excusable.
Also the voice acting was pretty sub-par it seemed like... and that isn't even a complaint about 47 himself, like usual (he doesn't talk in the demo).
Still, really liking how this looks with each new bit that gets revealed.
And that HD collection is so bought if and when it ever comes to PS3. I'd been thinking about how I need to get a hold of the old games again soon. And Blood Money was never released on PS3 anyway, so that would be really cool to see.

Yes seems its just us 2 watching this game. My doubts are going slowly and the fact they left out 47 talking makes me hope they are going to suprise us and say Bateson is back.

I have never played a game in the series to garner any interest.
I'm not good at stealth games and not into shooting often. However I been surprised before. So never know one day may be a fan of the series.
