OT: I downloaded the demo and didn't like it all that much.
What level was in the demo?latenightapplepie said:
If it wasn't A New Life or A Murder of Crows, you weren't really playing Blood Money. The first tutorial mission is downright boring and linear. Completely unlike the rest of the game.
I loved the game. It's a great blend of stealth, creativity, good gameplay mechanics, and violence. BUT, I definitely don't think it's " the best game ever". Good- Yes, Best Ever- NoT3h Merc said:
Good great. Great game. Excellent game. Without a doubt.
Best game "evar"? Matter of opinion and taste really.
If you particularly liked the stealth elements of it, I would say games like Splinter Cell and Thief were better in that respect.
If you enjoyed story, well can't blame you, it was interesting. The targets were all fascinating, and it was awesome how vulnerable they were. Rather than taking eight sniper shots to the head, they died just like everyone else. Plus Agent 47 himself was fun to play as.
The combat was really great, although it was buggy as hell. Sometimes you needed to quickly dispatch a person before another person turns the corner, but the killing animation was sometimes randomized leaving you in a very awkward social position when the guy's buddy was staring at you decapitate his buddy with a guitar string.
If you liked it for the dick potential, I personally find Prototype more equipped for that.
The difficult difference between all the levels was well balanced. Over all though the game was easy, despite there being 25 different ways to kill the target, it usually consisted of the same routine, grab a costume wait for them to go off alone and look out into the distance over a balcony then push them. It was the easiest and safest way, and the trial and error nature of it made you resort to this ***** tactic.
The game was varied and was a jack of all trades master of none kind of thing. Above average in everything, but never really excelled in any field.

Yeah, it was the tutorial mission - I had to kill some themepark owner. I'd written the game off after that demo. Maybe I should give it another look.Samurai Goomba said:
Sorry dude, but IMO the title "Best Game Evar" goes to "Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past"
Yes. I'm a Zelda freak.
Yes. I'm a Zelda freak.
I would suggest doing that. All the other levels give you a lot more freedom, if nothing else. I can't ensure you would like the game, but that first level is a poor representation of what's ahead. Especially in how it lacks dark humor and clever disguises. And again, all the other levels give you freedom to play how you want.latenightapplepie said:
I'll give you that Link to the Past was the best Zelda ever, but Chrono Trigger is my favorite game.Macgyvercas said:
And Link's Awakening was highly underrated.
So, you like the game and that makes it the best game ever? I liked ''Riki Kunio'' for NES, does that make it the best game ever?
I liked Hitman: BM, but i got to admit that it was not a good game. It was bugged up the ass, you could have killed everybody without using stealth, the story was NOT compelling. I liked it because it was the first game, that i played where, you were an assassin. Some of the missions were a lot of fun, but some of them were so awful that i almost uninstalled the game.
But, again, i liked it.

Yeah but I could crush people with pianos! HOW AWESOME IS THAT?! Plus it only felt easy because you have stuff that a hitman should actually have, (eg. sedative syringes, poison syringes etc.) instead of stuff like ether and massive eyebrows.Fat Man Spoon said:
Either way this is just a bit too fanboyish a topic.
LOL at the Groundhog Day reference.LordCuthberton said:
OT: Yeah, I think it's a real good game. I don't now about it being the best game ever but I did enjoy it when I played. Although i haven't played it in a while... goddammit now I have to go get it.
