Hitman 2 (2018)
Review
It's Hitman 1 but with better levels. The levels pretty much in every case are more gorgeous than the ones in Hitman 1 AND they're more fun in their layout and the ways you can kill people.
Standouts for me are Columbia which I dunno it's just so well designed it made me feel like I was in a Latin country. Very nice during Covid. I still need to go back and do the Hippo murder option.
Mumbia is insane. The sheer number of people. The portrayal of such a dense city is fantastic. Also blowing a guy off a building while filming a movie is amazing. Also I loved hanging around afterwards and listening to the director saying they should keep the footage in because it will be a big hit. Lol.
Vermont is like a perfectly captured slice of Americana.
And the final level while being very difficult to approach and kind of contrived has some very cool vibes. The whole Secret Doomsday Billionaire Cult thing is awesome. The final outfit I ended up with looked like the head honcho from The Chonicles of Riddick and I used it to smash an evil lady up in an Iron Maiden. Absolutely brutal. Great level and great way to end the game.
I'm honestly stoked to play number 3 but don't want to shell out the $60. Some day I'll come back and it will be grand!
