If you read my previous written blog you will see that I said I was going to get a new memory card so I could start Hitman: Blood Money again and get a Silent Assasin rating in every mission like I have done in previous Hitman games. This blog will be used for telling you my progress of getting these titles of the previous day.
I started the game again yesterday (still watching every cutscene even though I've see them) and I went through the tutorial mission, Death of a Showman. I didn't try getting a Silent Assassin rating here as it doesn't give you a rating so I just followed what the tutorial said.
I started the first official mission, A Vintage Year. I have got the Silent Assassin rating in this mission so many times and I can't remember why I played it so much. If you check the archive of The Stealthy Gamers Union you will see that I have already wrote a walk-through on how to get the Silent Assasin rating in this level. I like this mission. The environment is cool and realistic. The way I did it was get a guard's uniform and climb up a drainpipe into Don Fernando Delgado's room. I follow him onto the balcony where I push him over it. I then go the wine cellar where Manuel Delgado is. I plant a bomb by a winch which is attached to an area of wood holding crates. Manuel goes under this area to tie his shoe which is where I blow the bomb,crushing him. I run to get my suit so I don't lose 5000 retrieving it and go down the slope to the hangar pushing people into the water down here(which includes as a accident) and running into the seaplane.
I did the next mission, Curtains Down, too and have already wrote a walk-through to get the Silent Assasin rating in The Stealthy Gamers Union. This is one of my favourite missions to get the rating as I find it funny. I dress up as a worker and get to the area above the stage. I plant a bomb beside the light. I run back down to the guy who acts as the excutioner of Alvado D'alvade. I hide here and wait for the actor to come in. I sedate him and take his clothes. 47 looks funny in a goatee and moustache. I had already gotten the real version of the gun used in the opera. I go on stage and wait for the end of the opera and shoot D'alvade but people think it's acting. They eventually find out he is dead and think what I did was an accident. I actually stay n stage and wait for his friend, the second target to come up. I blow the bomb and people don't seem to notice, making the light drop on him barely missing me. I run out getting my suit and a job well done.
The third mission that I did, Flatline, I haven't wrote a walk-through for as this was the first time I got a Silent Assasin rating on this mission. It is actually a pretty cool mission to do. I steal patients' clothes and admission papers. I walk in and go to the window where the guard is watching TV inside. I break the utility box nearby and hide behind the door. I sneak into the room where the guard was watching TV and steal his keycard and video tapes (just incase). I get into the place where the agent who has information and that I have to get out is being kept. I change into the clothes of the people who are allowed down here and find the agent. I sedate him making him appear dead. I went then and sneaked into a secondary target sabotaging his grille blowing him up. I also crushed another secondary target with a light-I blew up the line holding it up. Finally I choked the main target with a weight when he was weightlifting. I ran to the morgue (after getting the famous Hitman suit back)where the agent was as he looked dead. I revived him with a pill and escaped. Mission accomplished. I may be writing a walk-through for this soon.
The last mission I did with the Silent Assassin rating yesterday was the fourth mission, A New Life. It was a pretty straight forward mission but I did it with the rating a bit flukely. I sedated a clown that was going to be at the party and hid him in a box in his van. I was able to go into the house now. Once I got into the house I followed the target's wife and sedated her, allowing me to get the necklace with the microfilm in it. I then went to the sauna making sure nobody saw me and changed into a guard's uniform. I went to the front of the house and broke the utlity box making sure again that nobody saw me. This blew out the TV that Vinnie "Slugger" Sinistra, the target, was watching. When his guard was coming out to fix it, I went into the room and fibre wired him. I hid him in a small room off this TV room. The guard ran in and went right beside the door and the guards got alerted even though they didn't see his body. I ran out because I thought I was going to get caught which made me forget to retrieve my suit. I escaped and I surprisingly got a Silent Assasin rating. That's why i thought I did it a bit flukely. I mightn't write a walk-through for this level until I'm sure this is the best way to do it.
Well, I'm pretty happy with my progress so far. Four levels in one day isn't bad. It is pretty late in this day and I haven't got one yet. I'm tried Murder of The Crows a couple of times but I didn't get it. I'll try later on tonight. I finally managed to get Morrowind working so I'll be playing that for a while (it seems to be glitching a lot). I would have posted pictures but the quality was terrible in the pictures I took. There mightn't be a blog like this tomorrow if I get no rating.
