Contracts was a little dissappointing.
This new Game has an effect called Post Filtering, I suggest turning it off. It will remove the blurring lighting effect and make the game look alot sharper and framerate will be much faster, basically it will look just like the previous game. The Music is kick ass but the sound effects from the some of the guns are missing some quality. In the first game The Ballers sounded more powerfull it used some bass sound and it sounded very cool. But this game it just doesn't sound as cool.
It may be just me but I felt the game was a bit too dark. I was looking forward to a variety settings but all the missions took place at night. They say the missions where more elaborate and bigger. Well they are bigger but I would'd say more elaborate. Maybe less complex or the same. But what i do find cool is that you get to carry that breifcase around containing a sniper rifle very cool they didn't have that in the second game only the first game had it, this was cool. The game does feal shorter but i maybe wrong because i had not finished the game yet i actually skipped through the levels to check em out a bit. The second game had alot of levels but smaller in scale and some were short as hell. Another thing that would have bin cool is if it had the briefing Screen like in the second game where they show you short videos of your Target.
In this game you get a briefing screen but you only get it when you start the mission and press "B" to access your Contract information.
The game does offer alot of weapons but where in the hell are the 9mm berettas dammit. I still like this game alot if I think of it as more of an huge expansion for Hitman 2.
