Hitman: Blood Money really impressed me on the PS2. The graphics are good, but the faces are great. I also enjoyed the set of customizable weapons. I played many of the levels over and over trying to find new ways to get the hit. Some of the things I thought were bad about the game were the random witnesses. I try to get the best rank and a mystery witness pops up. Another thing is the legnth of the game. I am a serious gamer and played almost constantly, but I beat the game in only a few days. This game is one of the most challenging games in my collection. I played one level FIVE times trying to get it perfect. It was a Fun fast and slow paced game which kept me on the brink of insanity until the end of the last level, "Requiem." I would recommend this game.
Bloody Good Fun!! 2007-08-09
Hitman Blood Money is thoroughly entertaining and challenging. You can't simply go running around blasting like a maniac. You need patience, skill and stealth to complete the missions and continue on in the game. The new "notoriety" feature is a great addition as well. At the end of each mission, you get to see a newspaper front page that show the deaths of your victims and if you are sneaky enough, the story indicated that the victim died of "unknown causes" or at least that there are no suspects. Go crazy and you get plastered all over the front page.

I love this game.Alot of weapons... it takes brains if you want to kill the marks quietly or you can just kill everyone who witnesses.But i don't think you get a bonus for making that much noise.You can change clothes to disguise yourself.This game is just all kinds of kool.
like every other hitman...

hitman: blood money is basically the same game as hitman 2, so proceed accordingly (i think hitman 2 was the best hitman game and hitman: contracts was truly terrible). the graphics here are really nice, and it has a nice tutorial game that teaches you how to play, which i appreciate (reading instructions sucks!) however, there are problems. first of all, i came across a few bugs, which doesn't make sense. if you're going to make this full-fleshed game with great graphics etc., at least fix the bugs too! for example you might come up behind someone to choke them with the fiber wire.. and it doesn't work. also, throwing a coin is relatively complicated. you have to enable the coin from your inventory, then hit L3 (push down the left analog stick like a button), then at the same time hold down the triangle button and release. sometimes i had to try this 5+ times just to throw a coin! also, not everything seems to make sense. you don't always know if a guard is going to notice you if you, say, run farther away from him. one time i killed a guy, and a civilian walked across his body. my caution meter went up, but not all the way.
wait a minute... so you're telling me this civilian saw a guard i killed, told another guard, and they didn't go on FULL alert? hmm, kinda strange. you think they'd freak out about their guard buddy being dead.
but ultimately, anything you don't like about this game will be a result of how you feel about the hitman FORMULA. personally, i think the map kind of sucks. how on earth did agent 47 acquire this magical map that shows him every movement of each guard???? he can tell which way they're moving!! what on earth??? and then you have your legend, including "points of interest" and "optional targets." i think this makes things kind of boring. also it's too hard and complicated to consult the map all the time. i wonder what it would feel like if you had no map and it was a more immersive, first-person game.
basically, if you like hitman, play it. if not, don't play it.
Eeeeexcellent.... 2006-09-03
Hitman: Blood Money brings back the world's greatest assassin, Agent 47. A series of hits have eliminated a number of assassins from the ICA, Agent 47's contract killing firm. Sensing that he may be the next target, he travels to America where he attempts to carry on with business as usual. That means killing -- a lot of it. Online Stat System allows players to post stats in a variety of different skills and feats; compare and compete with other players around the world New to the world of assassinations? The all-new Rookie Training mode will give you all the training needed Drop a priceless chandelier or use a remote bomb -- the new accident system allows for more freedom in choosing the method for taking out the target
One of the hardest games I have played. 2006-09-01
Im new to the hitman series so I dont know a lot about "Mr.47", but I do know that this game is both addicting and hard. The tuitorial level tells you what to do step-by-step after that your on your own. MY MIND WAS RACING WITH EXCITEMINT!! I didnt know what to do first, kill that guy ,use his suit, sneak in, kill another, etc. I like how the do the news paper after each mission. If you read it (yes you can read it!!) it will basicly rate you on how you did. That was very well done.
Overall:
This game is one the best beacuse it is not easy to beat you always have to think 3 steps ahead of you. Like a sniper.
6/5 stars (******/*****)
Hit man Revived 2006-08-09
Man, I have to say that this game is very addicting to play. I bought this game last week and I just passed it last night. The game's ending is by far the best EVER!!! In any game. I could not see someone coming close to making it better then what they make you do in the last mission "REQUIEM"... The game gives you the chance to make your own strategy to take someone out and make a hit. A Bloodbath is Revived in the End...
A very guilty pleasure... 2006-08-09
Ever wanted to blow off some steam by popping off a few rounds? Somebody ever rub you the wrong way and you wanted to use force to make things right? Have you ever been so sickened by the world's evil that you wanted to take it upon yourself to take out the trash? Here's your virtual opportunity.
I'll try to keep this short (if you want a lot of excellent details and commentary, feel free to read the longer reviews listed beside this one). Blood Money is an outstanding game. It provides extensive entertainment for shooter gamers of both styles: Unleash your fury of firepower and destroy everyone (including the household pet) in your path, or cautiously and systematically conquer each objective with little or no unnecessary roughness. From big guns to borrowed identities, Blood Money offers an unbelievable sense of realism in the world of professional killing.
There are a lot of missions (I apologize for not having the exact number), and although the primary objectives in each are pretty similar and self-explanatory (kill the target), the means of doing so can vary significantly. Each mission provides a new and exciting environment, with various places to stash the bodies, multiple disguises to jump into, an appreciative variety of weapons to use, and different opportunities to assassinate the targets. Your personal weapons are upgradeable: Silverballer .45 pistol (or PISTOLS once you have the money and progress to purchase that feature), SPAS-12 shotgun, MP5 sub-machinegun, M4 carbine assault rifle, and WM2000 sniper rifle. You can also acquire a lot of different weapons of each basic style, and can also use a few miscellaneous items for the dirty work (poison drinks and sausages, bloody up a hammer or a shovel, or fire off a few nails with the occasional nail gun).
The game can prove difficult, regardless of your method of completion. If you play it on an easy difficulty, simply for the sake of killing everything that moves, you want to watch your health. If you play a harder difficulty, be very cautious and covert. Avoid losing disguises, avoid leaving witnesses, avoid any collateral damage, and make the deaths look like an accident (an exciting new feature). Be careful, because if you're playing on anything but the easiest difficulty, your success in the previous missions can dictate the success of future missions. Try to keep a low profile so as to avoid getting shot the moment you step into the building.
This game is highly addictive and very fun. I am extremely proud to have included it in my collection, and I have yet to grow bored. So much for keeping this short, eh?
It's no Silent Assassin 
2006-08-02
"Hitman 2" was one of the best PS2 games ever, so when I bought Contracts and found it to be a poorly made quicky sequel out only to snatch my $50 bucks, I hoped the developers would go back to the drawing board and come up with something on par with Silent Assassin.
No such luck: Above all, Blood Money is silly and incredibly boring. No spoiler, but one mission takes place in the White House. Right, no trouble sneaking in there.
The rest of missions don't follow any real story like HM2 but use the choppy action sequence approach that, unlike Contracts, aren't even entertaining. When I found myself chasing people dressed like birds I knew the game was in trouble.
And finally, the end is the worst ever, on par with, "It was all just a dream!" Save your money.
