Hitman 2: Silent Assassin (PS2)

The thing that I really love about the game play in Hitman 2 is the way that you can complete nearly every mission at least two different ways. You can either storm in with guns blazing, shooting anything that moves or you can slice a patrolling guard's throat, grab his clothes and silently sneak into a building to take out your target with a silenced pistol and just walk out of the building (right under everyone else's noses) and off into the night. Either way you choose to complete these missions is perfectly fine.

Also at the end of each successful mission, the game rates you in two different categories: Stealth and aggression. You then get a rating, depending on what you got in these categories. They range from Silent Assassin to Mass Murderer.

A couple of other nice features thrown into the game include an in-game compass (which can be very helpful when outdoors) an awareness metre (to alert you when they have discovered your disguise) and some saves have also been throw in (the amount of saves depends on the level of difficulty you're playing on)

If you are a big fan of the first Hitman then DEFINATELY buy this game! Even if you're not then you might want to download the demo to see if you like it (I'm sure you will) On the other hand, if you prefer just going in blasting everything to hell Matrix style, then this game might not be for you. If so, try Soldier Of Fortune II. Another one of my personal favourites.
