The most clever game which involves guns. Why? Because you're an assassin who can use any weapon and many disguises.

The game has huge areas, good graphics, fine music, stellar AI, and a very sweet gameplay type. You could just run around slaughtering everyone with a minigun. But Hitman is more clever than that. Some levels aren't the greatest, but Traditions of the Trade has been played so much by me, it shows it's quality that I still love it. I do murder a lot of the level, but the fun's doing just enough not to get rumbled. Whacking the bellboy, taking an elevator and blasting a guard in the head, running around with the master key....
The game is so clever, I am waiting for Blood Money as it is (or was until Shadow of the Colossus walked into my life) the game I am most eagerly anticipating this year.
