Hitman: Codename 47

The original Hitman was one of my earlier PC games and I sunk many an hour into it. I have it here on GOG as a collectible more than a game that I'll play much but if you plan on playing the Hitman series...which you should, then start at the beginning! The wonky controls are worth it to enjoy a playthrough at least once.

It's alright if you don't mind the god-awful level design that is sometimes present and the outdated controls. Stay clear of this game otherwise.

Without a single doubt, I can say that this is the hardest game I've ever played. In my opinion, IO Interactive had no definitive idea about this game, because really, if it wasn't for 47, it wouldn't be a Hitman game. For those like me who had only played Blood Money (regarding Classic Hitman I mean), don't expect something like that. This is a REALLY DIRTY game, I don't know how else to describe it. The controls are terrible, especially for a NON PC gamer like me. However, it's really nice and satisfying to complete a mission in the best way possible, something that took me more than 30 hours of gameplay to do it. What else... For me it's a Good Old Game, but unfortunately it has aged like milk. Well, who cares! It will always have a great charm.

Hitman: Codename 47 is a great sandbox assassination game that is only held back by a few flaws. The game is very difficult at times and the awkward controls don't help. The game's levels can get repetitive and are sometimes quite empty, sometimes only containing (apart from buildings ect.) a few bins. The game is very fun to play though and the story is at least interesting. Hitman: Codename 47 is a unique game and I would highly recommend this to any one who thinks impersonating enemies and sandbox assassination is cool.

I can only say I love this game, and for play it on my mac without bootcamp or virtual machine I use playonmac and it works very well.
