The Bottom Line:

"Best in series"

Blood Money is the best game in the Hitman series hands down. Mostly because the controls are not the crap they were in the previous iterations, the missions don't seem like a chore and are actually fun, and it's got more ways than ever to take out your target.

The campaign has you playing through twelve missions, some hard, some easy, some with such obvious ways to beat that you go DUH after you beat them.

It took me six hours to beat, but depending on how you play (I was a mass murderer most of the game, but you can choose not to kill everyone in the world).

The story is decent, if not just a bit convoluted. You'll find yourself cringing toward the end when the story seems to kind of throw up on itself.

If you are a fan of stealthy, thinking games then you should enjoy this foray into the world of Agent 47. But it's more of a rent than a buy solely because of the length, and there is really no reason to go back through after one playthrough.
