[[[Pros]]]
[Great gameplay premise]
Unlike other stealth games, the goal here isn't to lurk in the shadows, but to move around in plain sight. This is done by swapping clothes with your victims to increase the amount of areas you can access without drawing attention to yourself. With the gameplay revolving around setting traps and seizing opportunitys, this allows the player to survey and plan without having to worry about staying hidden.
[Multiple ways to kill]
Yes you can do the boring old shot to the back of the head from 2 feet away, but what fun would that be? how about sabotaging a opera scene by replacing the actors fake gun with a real one to take out your first target, then as your second target runs to the stage to see whats going on, blow up a huge chandelier to fall from the celling to take him out....its really rewarding seeing this all go as you planned it.
[Varying locations]
The levels take you from a las vegas casino, to an opera house, to a suburb house, to a hillbilly wedding, and more...you'll never be in the same place twice.
[Notoriety system]
Throughout the level youll encounter different things (alarms, cameras, witnesses, found bodies, etc) that will compromise your silent assassin-ness so the game implemented a system where if you leave too much evidence people will more easily pick you out as an assassin, so make sure your clean up your mess :-P
[Customizeable weapons]
Take your silverballers, add automatic trigger, laser sight, red dot scope, extended clips, lower recoil, armor piercing bullets, and of course silencer to name a couple of the upgrades for only one of the 5 or so guns you can completely pimp out with the money youve earned from supporting your local graveyard.
[[[Cons]]]
Cant think of any atm.
[[[Conclusion]]] - BUY
If you like stealth games this is a must have. 10/10
