Enter the mind of a genetically-engineered assassin-for-hire Agent 47, whose deadly efficiency is now needed more than ever. Lured back into a global ring of deception by a twisted Russian crime boss, he must kill not only to make a living, but to keep himself alive. This time it's not just business, it's personal.
Hitman 2: Silent Assassin takes what's best from its predecessor and improves upon it, creating a top-notch stealth-action game with a gripping story and slick gameplay. Each mission is created with impressive attention to detail, and this level of complexity allows the player to find his or her own path to complete each assignment however seems best. A huge arsenal of guns and gadgets give you all the tools you will ever need, but your best weapons are still stealth and deception and this is something you can’t get for money. What you do and how you do it is entirely up to you, and as long the target is dead, the client is happy.
Improves on its predecessor in almost every way brings the gameplay to its full potential.
Extraordinary mission design that gives total freedom of movement and an impressive level of interactivity with the environment.
Monumental and memorable soundtrack made by acclaimed composer Jesper Kyd.
Hitman 2: Silent Assassin is a big improvement over Hitman: Codename 47, so I wouldn't go back any earlier in the series than this if you want to see how things started. Expect frustration with some of the missions as they can be very unforgiving!
Love this game, took me 20 minutes reading through forums and tinkering to get it running on my gaming laptop. I was getting a blank screen on booting the vanilla GoG version, so I added the enb converter and nemesis widescreen mod and now it runs perfectly.
I just replayed this game after about a decade since my last play-through. During this period I had been unable to run the game properly on my Windows 10 machine. Fortunately, I found a mod (uploaded by the user MikhailRock on the website NexusMods) with which I was able to run this game flawlessly. The aforementioned weblink also contains instructions on how to install the mod, which is very easy and takes less than 2 minutes.
The game itself is just as I remembered it from 20 years ago. I'm not sure if I should recommend it to fans of later installments, since this was the series' first attempt at the Silent Assassin mechanics... and it shows. This version is the most tedious and requires quite a bit of patience to finish with a perfect score. Still, Hitman 2 (2002) has a decent variety of environments (you get to visit countries all over the world) and a strong soundtrack to mach each of them. I'm also giving it a plus for going through the trouble of having voice lines in the actual languages of the places that you visit (something which adds a lot to the feeling of immersion, but games from that era often disregarded).
TLDR: Works well, good for going on a nostalgia trip, if you can put up with the dated mechanics.
