[h1]Aller Anfang ist schwer[/h1]

„Hitman: Codename 47“ ist das allererste Spiel der großen Reihe. Ob es noch was taugt? Finden wir es heraus.

Gameplay
Schon im ersten Teil zeichnet sich ein wenig ab, wie spannend dieses Spielprinzip werden kann. Allerdings gibt es im Vergleich zu den Nachfolgern deutliche Abstriche: Das Leveldesign ist teilweise furchtbar. Zum Einen sehen manche Passagen einfach zu Ähnlich, was mir immer wieder mal die Orientierung genommen hat. Zum Anderen lässt „Hitman“ dem Spieler bei weitem nicht eine so große Auswahl an Vorgehensweisen. Es geht weniger darum, aus der großen Auswahl der Möglichkeiten eine herauszuarbeiten und umzusetzen, sondern die eine Herangehensweise, welche die Entwickler jetzt im Kopf hatten, durchzuführen. Man kann sich gelegentlich auch noch so halbwegs durchballern, aber Perfektionisten müssen hier viel Ruhe bewahren. Zudem gibt es auch kein Schnellspeichern, wodurch die Frustrationsgrenze noch höher liegen muss. Dafür sind die Missionen aber meistens recht kurz. Die Problematik ist eher, dass man viel erkunden muss und dabei oft versagt. Der Reiz, den richtigen Weg zu finden, ist aber auch nach 20 Jahren noch da. Nervig ist die alte Technik, wodurch wir z.B. keine Seitwärtsschritte machen können und die Steuerung generell sehr fummelig ist.

Story
Der Beginn von Agent „47“. Wir erwachen in einer Testkammer und müssen unserem Meister quasi gehorchen und seine Aufträge erfüllen. Wahrscheinlich seht ihr das „Hitman“-Franchise nicht zum ersten Mal, daher hier mal der Spoiler: [spoiler]Er ist ein Klon. Und was für einer![/spoiler]
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2353906035

Grafik/Sound
Wow, als ich mit Videospielen angefangen habe, sah das SO aus? Ja, also schön ist mittlerweile wohl anders. Stellt euch mal vor, damals sagten die Leute „Boah, schau dir mal die Grafik an!“. Irre, oder? Aber der erste Teil ist wirklich nicht gut gealtert und das merkt man der Grafik und dem Sound auch an. Die Steamversion ist übrigens zudem auf Englisch, man kann es aber bei Bedarf patchen.

Fazit
„Hitman: Codename 47“ ist einfach nicht mehr zeitgemäß. Die Steuerung ist furchtbar klobig, die Grafik alles andere als hübsch und auch das Gameplay fordert sehr viel Geduld vom Spieler. Allerdings weil von der sehr starken Vielfältigkeit der Möglichkeiten im ersten Spiel noch nicht viel zu sehen ist. Im Grunde haben zur zwei Leute Interesse an dem Spiel: Nostalgiker, die es damals schon gespielt haben oder jüngere Leute, die sich durch die neueren Ableger in die Spielereihe verdient haben. Neueinsteigern würde ich direkt zu der Neuauflage (bzw. den Nachfolgern) oder zu Hitman: Blood Money raten.

Gerade „Blood Money“ hat es mir angetan. Reviewt habe ich es übrigens auch schon. Für das und mehr kannst du in meiner Steamgruppe vorbeischauen. Würde mich freuen!

Ich empfehle dieses Spiel folgenden Leuten:
- Die, die Supporter älterer Spiele sind
- Die, die Hitman von allen Seiten kennen lernen möchten (auch von schlechten)
- Die, die ein sehr geduldiges Gemüt besitzen
- Die, die sich wegen irgendetwas selbst bestrafen wollen

Die fehlende Speicherfunktion ermöglicht es dem Spieler, eine einzige Mission vor dem Abschließen dieser, etwa 10-20 Mal zu spielen, da es ???????????????????? genauen Weg gibt den Auftrag abzuschließen, für den es keine Hinweise während der Mission zu finden gibt. Diese völlige Überforderung endet schließlich bei der Zerstörung der Tastatur, wo auch die grauenhafte Steuerung eine Rolle spielt, oder dem Ansehen eines Walkthrouhgs. Die KI mit übersinnlichen Wahrnehmungen, die für den häufigen Tod des Spielers sorgt, gibt dem Spiel den letzten Schliff für einen unendlichen Spielspaß.

Ich wiederhole: An alle, die wissen wollen, was es heißt, an schweren Depressionen zu leiden, empfehle ich 1-2 Stunden dieses Spiels pro Tag. Nach ungefähr 3 Tagen sollten folgenschwere Depressionen eingetroffen sein. An den Rest: Lasst es sein!

its a bit dated but still worth checking out if you want something to do on your free time. there are many different ways you can solve each level and eliminate each targets and a decent selection of weapons and gadgets that are quite a bit of fun to mess around with and to plan your next assassination.

[h1]Cult classic that is in need of a remaster[/h1]

First of all, it is worth noting that this game is in 3D and it is very outdated. With modern systems and monitors - the game has a hard time. You need to do magic stuff in txt files - otherwise it will not work properly. But after some tech prayers with config files, limiting FPS through the video card and custom control settings, the game still plays good and looks okayish, although rather low-poly.

[h1]Plot[/h1]
At first glance, if you don’t know what Hitman is (lol), it may seem that the main character, is a maniac who escaped from a psychiatric hospital, and then as soon as he came out into the open world, find a job for himself - being a killer. Missions await us in China, Columbia, Budapest, Holland, and finally back to the mental hospital. Later, of course, a plot twist is revealed, but everyone already knows what the hell is going on already and how it all ended

[h1]Graphics[/h1]
One of the first attempts at 3D, turned out well, funny ragdolls, clever tricks with effects to create an immersive atmosphere without sacrificing the performance at the time ... except that the shadows and water - looks bad, and some textures are painfully liquid, but there's nothing to do about it.

Anyways - nice music, excellent soundtrack, loud shooting noises, interesting targets of our protagonist and somewhat original approach to some of the missions.

[h1]Gameplay[/h1]
Stealth Killer simulator - thats basically it
Try to be silent - dont kill civilians - explore a lot - read a map ffs
Re-cloth a lot to progress
Remember that this game is way more forgiving in stealth ways than the next games - you'll see why.

[h1]Difficulty curves or fun/boring tips[/h1]
Since many players complain about problems with configs, controls, and finally - a lack of understanding of what to do, I decided to post quick tips about each mission in case you start writing negative reviews out of hopelessness, or maybe you'll learn some secrets and tricks/abuses that will make the game a lot more easier for you. If you know what to do, the game can be completed extremely fast btw.

1)Introduction
Boring: kill the 1-st guard, trick the other one
Fun: you can kill the 2-nd one AFTER he opened a gate, re-cloth is the key
(Yeap, there are people who dont get it playing Hitman lol)

2)Chinese park
Boring: you only need one sniper shot to win
Fun: shoot everyone except civilians from the roof

3)Car bombing
Boring: the Driver can go away TWO times, use the detonator when car is almost left the location
Fun: detonate the car near the restaurant for extra chaos

4)Cafe and lots of cops
Boring: the window is the answer - hide a weapon before starting to act
Fun: well, you can also kill the blue guy too, thats basically it

5)Lee Hong
Boring: find a lonely guard -> when you find the statue -> kill a waiter and with the poison you can kill Tzun which will make the mission extra easy
Fun: poison is for wussies (plus we need that extra 5000 bucks) just kill Lee Hong and Tzun in the restaurant, firefight incoming but IT IS a fun way

6)Jungle
Boring: dont buy 2-handed weapons, the guards wont shoot you then -> do everything fast -> use pistols to free the needed guy

7)Jaguar
Boring: Pigs are the answer (yes, they are pickable)
Extra boring: bug-climb the wall in certain places and then just run along the wall to the hole for an exit

8)Pablo
Boring: if you bring with you a sniper rifle - you can kill Pablo very fast at the start of the mission, but anyways - these missions are the main reason why everyone hates C47 - there are no stealth ways to complete this particular mission - safest way to start a firefight - is the Pablo's house
Fun way for all 3 Colombian missions: find M60 and M60 your way to the victory (I dont think you can buy it tho)

9)Hotel
Boring: this is a tough one since this mission requires a lot of exploration for yourself but I'll give a few hints anyway: Fibrewire is the only weapon you need -> blue key from a hotel cleaner -> balcony -> dont forget the big black case -> dentist -> his cabinet -> dont forget that the bomb needs to be in the case AND detectors will alarm if you have the bomb -> there are TWO exits
Fun: find a lonely cop - Minus 5000 bucks but detecors will ignore your weapons completely

10)Bikers and Ivan
Boring: changing train tracks is the answer - beware of dogs
Fun: There are OTHER bandits on the location...

11)Boris
Boring: walking along other guards is the answer - you can also go looking for car bomb for easy Boris kill
Fun: if you are lazy - you can find Boris's car and just lure him out of the ship through starting an alarm and killing him when he run towards you
The only problem in both ways - is finding the bomb before starting to act

12)Returnal
Boring: you can only kill Covax and dress as him (dont forget the key) - SWAT will ignore you completely
Fun: find a good amount of weapons and ammo and shoot EVERYONE
An old friend is the answer

13)Final
Boring: dont kill the final target to see what happens
Fun: just murder anything that moves
A dead body is the answer

[h1]TL;DR:[/h1]
Very old game that aged not so well - but still can be enjoyed if you know what to do or explore a lot or just try/error your way to the win screen.
A MUST play if you starting a marathon of the series

In this classic you play as Tobias Rieper, a highly skilled businessman. Mr. Rieper travels the world and sees exotic locations as he closes out contracts for his company known as the ICA.

It's a good game and interesting to see some of the gameplay mechanics in a 2000's PC game. Considering what the IO was attempting. The first few levels are very small and are the training wheels levels (as I call them) and as you progress the levels get bigger and more complicated in scope.

If you want to see the original hitman game and what was the bases for future games, give it a play. Just be aware you will need to tweak the game and its controls to make it playable. The AI can be a bit wonky as depending on the difficulty they turn on their aimbots.

Anyway, it is a game from the 2000's. A PC made in 200 with a Pentium 4 costed nearly 3k (4.5-5k if you account for inflation). So basically, don't expect it to be 100% technically sound. They did some wizardry to make it work on W10.

I wouldn't say the game has aged poorly, though the Steam version requires some tweaks and fixes in order to be loadable and playable. The gameplay is still as thrilling as it used to be when I first played Hitman. There are multiple fun ways of infiltrating enemy groups and getting rid of them, so the game can be completed more than once.

I only recommend this if you want to know the backstory of 47; otherwise, it's not really worth it.

The AI for the bots is stupid and the maps are unnecessarily large without offering much content. The levels are overly tedious and there isn't much to go off of. They are also very boring.
There is 0 power balance in the guns, as in the SMGs or rifles being infinitely more powerful than any other gun in the game. Snipers are the only ones that make sense.
The controls are awful and it took me so much trial and error to reach a set I was comfortable with, even so, it still took me time to adapt to it. I cannot comment on graphics or physics engine or yada yada because it's a very old game. Also, it crashes often.

Still, for a 2000 PS2 game, this very much exceeded my expectations. I wanted to know the backstory of this franchise and was really burdened with the thought that playing this will be hell... it was hell, but not like, HELL, y'know? And I am definitely glad that this gave birth to this legendary franchise.

Best Wishes
Diana Burnwood. Controller. The Agency.

Only play if you REALLY wanna know the origin story of 47. In 2021 this game will frustrate you, plain and simple. The level of creative assassination which we all come to expect from Hitman games now a days are barely here (Not blaming anybody, I understand it's their first attempt in creating the legendary franchise. But still). The controls are awful, the graphics are... well you can guess what to expect from a year 2000 release. But the most painful things are 1. The dialogues - the cheesiest cringefest you'll ever find. and 2. THE GAMEPLAY. - the basic target for the developer, it seems, was to confuse and frustrate you in unnecessary long boring repetitive and confusing maps. Most of the objective are just fetch this bring that go there etc. Creative scope is largely missing. AI behaviour is wooden to say the least. The enemy guards will never react properly to simplest things like when their comrades fall beside them but will attack you if you violet game rules; like the guard sitting on an outpost will somehow know to shoot you even if you kill someone hiding in a basement 10 miles away, you can change your clothes to the president of USA but they will still recognize you somehow. You wont even see them through sniper rifle but they will kill you from object fade distance using a desert eagle. only 3 or 4 missions are really interesting and clues are very hard to find. Walkthroughs might be your best bet if you really want to complete the game. Anyhow try only if you've no better things to do and need to kill the time.

In my opinion you should just skip this one and go right into 2:SA.
There are way too many problems with this game in terms of controls, slow dated gameplay, display issues, etc.
Its also known for having some of the worst levels in the series.
I would love to see a remaster or remake of this game.
I suggest playing Contracts instead as it has remastered versions of the good levels from this game.

I honestly don't really understand a lot of the criticism this game has gotten by other reviews. Yes, the game's controls are clunky and the default setup is archaic in design, but some of the ways the gameplay has perceived to have 'aged' actually is what has made it so enjoyable to play to me personally. Let me start off by saying that if we are talking about how this game handles immersion, and how that ties to the game's difficulty, it's aged very well. This really should be more relevant to this game's discussion than a control setup you can change to some degree or a camera angle that's closer to you than most games do nowadays.

The concessions that have been made in the game, to it difficult enough to make you feel like an actual hitman, without being obnoxious in my opinion are very good. Walking slowly in a crowd to avoid attention gets tiresome, very fast, and this game doesn't do that. But, if you took the clothes of a body that has been discovered by a guard, he and everyone around him now recognises you and you have to change clothes a second time.
If you're carrying a gun that's not used by guards in the mission, they will discover and shoot you. It all makes sense, from an immersive, but also, ultimately a game's perspective.

Also, there is *no* recoil in any weapon but sniper rifles, there's bullet disperion instead. I really like how guns are balanced in this game, You can't be a killing machine with a silenced pistol, they're too inaccurate. You can't shoot your sniper rifle unless you're scoped, meaning you have to left-click twice to fire a bullet. A mechanic that you have to get used to, but you will actually enjoy if you keep in mind that you're a hitman, not rambo. When scoped, the gun swerves in a predictable pattern. You can train yourself to deal with it effectively but you will always need a non-insignificant amount of time to set up your shot.
The game is balanced to keep the primary focus away from mass genocide. Which, off course, you can still do, as long as you don't kill non-criminals and plan out your attack ahead of time. Remember, you're a hitman, not rambo.

If you like a game that puts enough pressure on you to play like a seasoned hitman, but ultimately gives you the freedom to play however you like, this is the game for you. The clunkiness all comes secondary. Not insignificant, but still only a small hurdle to overcome.

Certainly janky in terms of controls, even back when it was released, but it can still hold up quite well if you look past that. I'd even go as far as saying that with such controls it becomes more of a puzzle game than a true stealth-based experience. Sure, you do sneak around sometimes, but most of the time you just don some clothes that will allow you to walk around care-free, and then proceed with some trial and error to figure out what you have to do to complete the mission. In that regard, Hitman: Codename 47 could be easily translated into an adventure game and not much of its substance would be lost. Still, despite being somewhat frustrating at times (failing near the end of the mission by doing something stupid and then having to repeat the whole mission from the start), it was quite fun, but it won't appeal to you if you're not accustomed to playing games released before 2007.

You're not off to a good start when the game's default control scheme has the character's walk keys assigned to the numpad. Also, the tutorial crashed twice causing me to do it a total of 3 times. The tutorial easily takes 25 minutes each time...

In 2021, the original Hitman does not shake out well and expects a bit too much patience from the player. Due to poorly designed UI and navigation, lack of checkpoints, and wonky controls - the aging of this game is glaring and unavoidable, while also not surprising given its age (21 years old - it could legally drink!). I think if you had tried this game out 10 years ago, you still would have found these same problems with near equal frustration. That is to say, if you enjoyed it 10 years ago, you probably would still enjoy it today. Whereas if you are playing it for the first time, today in 2021, I'm afraid you are in for a disappointment.

It is difficult for me to say if this game was always so awkward, or if it just plays poorly on modern systems. I lean towards the former over the latter. In addition to technically playing poorly, the plot is missing in action, and what's with this overly calm and soothing music that persists throughout the game?

I know, I know. This is a classic and an old one at that. I'm an 80s baby and gamed during this era, but boy does this not make for a fun time. I respect this game for what it was, and what it started - but I'd recommend watching videos on YouTube or laugh at someone else struggle through it on Twitch. Even buying a big box version of this game to keep on your shelf makes more sense than paying for this game to play. It's just not worth it. Sadly.

Fails the test of time. I come back to it every now and then since it's the only Hitman game I've never finished.

Total waste of time. Trying to get it to work properly on modern hardware is a pain in the ass. Figuring out the god-awful controls is a pain in the ass. Has a shit ton of bugs. Plus, it's a very forgettable Hitman game overall. Just skip this one.

When i was a kid i played the 2nd game in the series, Silent Assassin, but probably didn't even make it to half of the game. Now all grown-up i bought the first 4 hitman games and i decided to play through them all because i loved silent assassin as a kid even though i was too young to understand how to complete objectives and all that.

The game's 21 years old and its clunky to put it simply. The camera is weird, the controls are weird (make sure to change them to your liking before you hit play), you can't control the recoil of the guns so when you're shooting you better be praying to RNG gods for bullets to hit the enemy (god bless the mp5 which might be the most accurate gun in the game), sometimes the enemies can turn in the blink of an eye and instantly shoot you and in rare occasions they just straight up shoot you through walls and to top it off: you are thrown into the missions with instructions of what you must accomplish but you're completely on your own and you must figure out pretty much everything through trial and error meaning dying is learning. Its a love hate relationship that you will have with this game.

But past its impractical gameplay i have to admit i found it pretty AWESOME: the atmosphere is great, the music is great, this game encourages you to think freely of how you want to complete your objectives because there is no linear way of completing them and the order doesn't matter as well. You'll start to piece out the story of the game in the later half of it, what you've been doing and the contracts you took will take an interesting turn.
Now i remember the 2nd game being difficult but man: this game is for sure a hard cookie to go through, might as well be one of the toughest games i've played. The The Lee Hong Assassination is probably the most beloved mission of them all and one of the hardest but by far the hardest is Say Hello To My Little Friend (to me at least).

As it stands i'd say its at least a 7/10, i heard the later games vastly improve on the gameplay side and i'm thrilled to find that out!

Only get this game if you really want to explore the origins of the Hitman franchise. This game feels just as old as it is. Controlling 47 feels like controlling a tank. Some assassinations are nice, most of them are tedious though. I highly recommend using a walkthrough alongside your playthrough. Also there is a godmode making some missions a lot more tolerable (GOD 1 in the console). Keep in mind that there is no feature letting you save your progress during a mission. If you screw up you have to start over from the very beginning.

The game's story is enjoyable. The voice acting is hilarious for the most part. 47s voice actor is amazing.

In conclusion, codename 47 is an old game and it feels like it. Only get it if you're either huge fan of the franchise or have nostalgic memories of it.

Classic Hitman, you are given a lot of freedom in how you approach your targets, there is a lot of trial and error involved and making mistakes is guaranteed, one tiny mistake and back to the start of the mission you go, really makes you appreciate the invention of the quick save button in more modern games.

I still love this game, it can be irritating if you don't know how the mechanics work, for example being spotted while wearing a disguise and holding a sniper rifle will instantly blow your cover.

Overall it has some great and relatively complex levels that leave you to figure out what to do as you go. There's no objective markers or maps that tell you where people are, you get a classic briefing with pictures and video along with general info on targets and a simple map with very basic info. This is the most pure classic Hitman game because of the lack of hand holding and it gets balanced out nicely by disguise system isn't nerffed by a suspicion meter like it was on Hitman 2 and Contracts.

Modifying the controls is a must as the standard set is incredibly dated, it's easy enough to set it up similar to Hitman 2/Contracts controls.

For compatibility on modern systems I highly recommend running with the OpenGL render or using dgVoodoo2 to emulate 3DFX Glide, also setting up DSOAL to enable the sweet EAX effects and 3D audio will improve your experience.

I say that I do not recommend because if you are looking to the reviews to decide whether or not you should buy, you should not buy. The game is very dated, and it shows. Setup is a mess, and I have to change my monitor's resolution every time I launch. The game itself is very unforgiving (no saves/checkpoints), and there really isn't anything that would make this game worth more than most other games on Steam. I bought the game and I do not regret it. Only get it if you are a die-hard Hitman fan and want to see where the franchise started.

The first chapter in the well known franchise.
It's been two decades since this was released.
I enjoyed it back then and It's neat even now.
Some things are quite dated, but that is okay.
I would so love to see a remake in the future.
The first three games just really deserve one.
Codename 47 is great for the nostalgia folks.
Brand new players will probably just dislike it.
It's a videogame classic at this point, though.
One of the OG grandpas of the Stealth genre.
This game just deserves a big positive review.

Although I love Hitman games I can't really recommend the first one. It was great for it's time because of never seen before stealth mechanics, it was really something new and exciting, but further games in the series improved gameplay so much that Codename 47 just looks obsolete and clunky comparing to them. It was an experiment which gave life to an awesome series, but now it's nothing more than a history lesson for the fans.

by far the worst Hitman Game i've played the fiber wire is a horrible mess in this game while in every other Hitman it frickin works in this one it doesn't fucking work at all everyone catchs you and then the stealth is just a hot mess i tried to play this twice and i still couldn't pass the second level by far the most disappointing Hitman game and the most frustrating one I thought the Absolution level of the Hotel sucked but i'd take that level anyday over this whole game never would suggest this to a person i would just pretend this one doesn't exist

Agent 47's first outing is an awkward grabbag of ideas tossed at a wall with little regard to how well they fit together. Despite a few good levels that laid the foundation for the rest of the series, it's bogged down by clumsy controls, obtuse solutions and forced gunfights. Very little about it has aged well, and I would only suggest checking this out if you're deeply curious about the origins of the Hitman series. IO was very smart in keeping what worked here and tossing the rest in future installments.

Hitman: Codename 47 is the first installment of the series. On the pro side, the setting is unique, you can prepare for missions and use different equipment strategies. However, the cons are too big for me to continue playing this game. Firstly, the controls are extremly clunky and using the fiber wire is a hot mess that only works sometimes without the victim being aware of getting whacked. Secondary, many characters seem to have eyes on the backside of their heads and will catch you doing naughty things. This would all be fine if the player could save at all, but we can't. And thirdly, failing a mission is extremly easy in this game. Considering that some missions are also quite long and you have the recipe for disaster.

Hitman 1 could be saved by having a quicksave/quickload function, but alas we are here without it. Therefore, I can't recommend Hitman to anyone but Hitman hardcore and purist fans.

I recently picked this game up again after nearly 20 years. And sure, Codename 47 has aged enormously, with clunky controls by today's standards, and obviously very dated graphics. After installing a mod to increase draw distance, tweaking the controls, and most importantly, lowering my screen resolution to ensure the interface is actually legible, I got used to the old ways again very quickly, and enormously enjoyed my nostalgic playthrough.

With no saves, brutally lethal and super sensitive enemies even on the easiest difficulty, little means to hide bodies, limited weapons, and extremely little guidance, sure, this game proves a proper challenge to even the most seasoned hitman players. But perhaps therein also lies its beauty. The open map format of this original hitman game encourages so much experimentation and little things to try. The attention to detail, for a game of that time, is nothing short of amazing. The physics simulation in the game was revolutionary at the time. From the realistic moving of foliage in the jungle, to the swinging of Mr 47's tie, these details still fill me with fuzzy warm feelings.

To me, Hitman 2: Silent Assassin remains the game that made the hitman franchise to what it is today. Still, the origins of the hitman franchise, with Codename 47, are more than worthy of exploration, and it is staggering as to how much of Codename 47 still lives on to today's modern hitman games. This includes epic location choices (restaurant, jungle, strip club, ship, hotel, you name it!), an emotionally engaging story, the now classic game mechanics, and above all, the impeccable sense of Mr 47's humour.

So, if you enjoy any hitman game but you have not yet played this one, and you are not afraid of a challenge, go and pick it up! I bet you won't regret it.

Unfortunately this game is aged badly.

Graphics are not so great.
It is not so easy to play and you can fail easily.
There is no save game option. If you want to save the game, you have to pass the chapter. That is it.
Also you have to tweak some .ini files in order to play it properly.

This game is only good for hardcore HITMAN fans who played this game when it was first released and want to play it again for nostalgia purpose.

I think you should read the storyline of this game and start from HITMAN: Silent Assassin.

This is just so hard to enjoy after HITMAN and HITMAN 2 being the first touch I had with the series. I see how this was revolutionary for the time, but this game just isn't for me. The camera angles are so weird, there's next to little or no direction at all, it is stupid hard, and it just plays weird in general. I do have to appreciate this though as the other Hitman games wouldn't be possible without this. I got to the third mission in Columbia and called it quits. The game is just too difficult for me personally. I wish I could've started my Hitman experience with this game as maybe I would appreciate it more. I hate to give this a bad review but it just isn't for me. 3/10

Will not be for everyone as there are no checkpoints/saves as you have to complete the mission in one go.
The missions are not to long and just take your time to explore parts.
If you fail you know what to do or not to do. It is a learning process.
There are some fixes needed to get to play well(Check pcgamingwiki).
Enjoyed the game and the challenge it.

Gameplay is just so bad it makes it hard to push through to the end, about 2 really good classic Hitman levels and the other levels are sort of meh!
I mastered all levels and got used to the combat but even then I kept failing.
Only worth if you're a fan of Hitman and want to experience the first game, but just be aware it's really hard at first.
I recommend finishing the game it's well worth it but don't feel too bad if you stop before finishing.

This game has some of the hardest levels in the history of the Hitman franchise. Say Hello To My Little Friend is possibly one of the buggier missions along with the mission where you disable the nuke. But, that doesn't remove the memorable moments that this game will provide. If you are a Hitman fan and you've never played this game at least try it.

No matter how much you love the Hitman franchise, stay away from this original installment.

Get used to making a minor mistake and having to replay entire levels over and over and over again.

First game in the hitman franchise, which has unfortunately aged horribly. First of all, i bought this game, because i played the other games from the franchise, and as i like to play everything from the beginning, i decided to buy it, i regretted it right away in the tutorial. First of all, i bought this game, because i had been playing other games from the latest franchise, and as i like to play everything from the beginning, i decided to buy it, i regretted it right away in the tutorial. The plot of the game is very simple, a set of missions in which agent 47 must shoot down the most diverse targets. First of all the game is stealth, but of course, if the player can always do something different. Now why this game is not worth buying, controls are terrible, nothing compared to other games of the genre, the gameplay of the game contains too many bugs, thus harm the missions. Before the mission, we always choose which weapons we carry and utensils, many of them are completely useless. Enemies, they are very abnormal, sometimes they dont see a piece of shit rigth in front of him, other times they see a fly a mile away. The best thing to do, is to play the other games in the franchise, this one has unfortunately aged very badly, but if you have patience and don't care about anything I said before, just play at your own risk. This game deserves a 3.3/10.

I bought the game to have it in the library and will buy the entire bundle when it will be on sale. It brought back a lot of memories when I first played it and I remember how this game set some standards for stealth games. A lot of new comments now are negative because of the clunky commands, weird AI behavior (sometime they shoot you for no good reason, they hear a silent kill from miles away, etc.) and these are true, the game is not perfect. But when I first played it, this was the situation and at that time it was something new. Even with these issues I still consider it a good & fun game, very hard but at the same time very rewarding. It's a classic that it's worth your time and money and I'll enjoy playing the levels over and over again trying new approaches to get the mission done.

Before I start Hitman 2: Silent Assassin, I want leave a few words of my experience with Codename 47 since it made quite an impression. I was first introduced to the series with Blood Money and I've finished it so many times that I knew every single bits in the back of my head with my eyes closed. I have also finished Absolution on a console. Having played the newer Hitman games with better graphics, they did not affect nor challenge my perception of Codename 47 or whatsoever. The controls may be wonky by default but the need to manually map it doesn't pose a real issue since they're easily accessible in the options. Unlike Hitman 2: Silent Assassin, I never needed to open the game's main folder to edit text files to fix a bug and I'm on Windows 10. This is respectable for an older game.

The narratives are well-made, the mission designs are memorable, and although this game has been proven difficult without saves, the story is efficacious enough as a contribution to my persistence. There can't just be another game like Hitman, and Codename 47 proves that when the story is well structured and effectively allows the player to connect with the protagonist in combination to adequate game plays, a good game is birthed. The story is uniquely Hitman's and Hitman's alone. Although one might speak of the physics in an accusatory tone, the cloth animation and ragdoll physics at the time was something of a revolution. I say, give it a try if you love Hitman.

Fuck me, this took longer than I expected. 12 missions, each one being very different from the other, except maybe for the first few tutorial missions. I'm not sure if I got the full experience of the storyline since most of it is being delivered through letters that you have to find and read while in separate missions; a pleasant experience nontheless...that is if you're into murdering for hire. I suppose every mission has a silent way of going about it, but having started on Blood Money, I would say the graphics didn't help at times. You can probably get it quite cheap nowadays, and I would wholeheartedly reccomend it. The last missions are a fucking bitch though.

The game is very good even though it mostly uses outdated techniques due to being from the year 2000. A bit glitchy and confusing at times, but a fun and a difficult game. The soundtrack is a hidden gem, it's one of the best video game soundtracks ever. The cons are glitches and horrible voice acting.

Works on Windows 10 if you modify to hitman.ini file a bit, the Steam Guides can help you with that.

Listen here Jack. This game is old. If you didn't grow up playing games like this, then you are going to have a hard time. What do I mean by this? Well the quality of life improvements in newer games are missing. In layman's terms, it is janky and unforgiving.

No regenerating health for starters. No medkits either, just kevlar vests that function as a second health bar. If you get shot in the head, that kevlar vest isn't doing jack shit and your health is going to go down real quick.
Your guns have random spread. This is typical of games by the developer IO Interactive. If you played Kane & Lynch 2, you'll know what I mean.
No quick saves, and the checkpoints are useless in a game like this. Press Shift+ESC and restart the level.
The controls are weird. Run and walk are mapped to separate keys. You'll get used to them.
This game was programmed for Windows 95/98, so unless you haven't upgraded your operating system in the past 20 years, then you will have to patch the game to work on your modern PC. The patch is posted in the community hub, and applying it is simple.

For the most part, none of these gameplay gripes matter because you are supposed to play as an assassin, not Rambo. Quiet kills with the piano wire, knife and silenced firearms, and clever disguises will get you far and keep you off the radar of the guards. If you find yourself getting shot up by guards, or running around with an AK-47, then you are playing the game all wrong.
However this becomes an issue in the series of missions set in [spoiler] Colombia and the final mission of the game. [/spoiler] These missions play more like a third person shooter. You will get smoked by guards who don't miss a shot, and you will be frantically running around with a Kalashnikov.

This might sound like a lot of complaining, but I still recommend this game. The missions that let you silently infiltrate a large compound and assassinate your mark are some of the most satisfying moments in the stealth game genre. If you don't like the hand holding in modern games, the waypoints, the X-ray vision, the intentionally dumb guards, then this game is for you. If you can tolerate goofy early 2000s graphics with weird controls then this game is for you. If you like your games slow paced, and with minimal direction given to the player, this game for you. If you want to support a top notch developer that still makes these kinds of games for the people who play them, this game is for you.

If you like the number 47, then this game is for you.

I am recommending this game only because it was good and unique for its time, however it certainly hasn't aged well so only pick this up if you are a die hard Hitman fan and you want to start the franchise from 47's very beginning. You do get a window into how everything got started for him in this game. The controls and save system are very outdated though, so fair warning! Try to avoid combat as much as possible as you'll have an easier time.

The game itself isn't really bad, it just did not age well, which is why i have to give it a thumbs down. The gameplay is really clunky, especially the controls, you can't save in a mission and quite often you're left pretty clueless about what you actually have to do. All that makes it challenging and quite often actually frustrating to play, because if you fail you have to restart the mission, which can easily mean that you lose 30 minutes of progress.
You might enjoy this game if you are a fan of the franchise and/or wanna play every single part. Otherwise stay away from this one.

From the videogames and the Hollywood movies, it all started right here because of this game.
This game is a classic.
Back in my time, we may have not had good graphics like today, but we certainly had games that challenged you and made you think hard which made it so much more rewarding when you completed the level.

The game has not aged well (in 2019), but even for its time I question the quality of the game. The main issue is this: you'd have to know exactly what to do ahead of time in order to pull off a hit that feels cool. For everything else, it's tedious trial and error. And by tedious I mean restart-you-at-the-beginning-of-the-level-after-30-min-of-play kind of tedious.

This is important, because it's the selling point of the game. You have all these potential possibilities and -- especially in 2000 -- creative ways to interact with the environment, right? But you don't. You actually have to do everything in a very specific way on very specific timing you can have no hope of knowing. The sense of openness and possibility is an ILLUSION. I suspect the manual or something had hints to help you along the way a bit but even that would kind of defeat the purpose.

Also the controls are pretty terrible, which is frustrating when timing is everything.

I actually enjoy the semblance of a story, if you can get to it. This might've wow'd me as a kid, but even then it wouldn't have taken me long to scratch through the skin-deep facade of depth. I don't recommend it. Only attempt this if you are an insane completionist like me and you have a good guide.
