Mini-Game Review: ‘Hitman: Sniper Challenge’
  |  @   |  

Recently we told you about the bonus gamers could get if they pre-ordered Hitman: Absolution through GameStop. The bonus—instead of being a simple weapon or outfit—would be a standalone game titled Hitman: Sniper Challenge, where players around the world could test their sniping talents to see who would be the very best, with prizes being handed out for top scorers. (Read more about the offer HERE)

For those of you unsure whether or not to pre-order the game now just to get the bonus, we here at Geeks of Doom wanted to take the Sniper Challenge for a spin around the block a couple of times and let you know how it is.

Check out our thoughts and, if you’re playing too, share your own thoughts below!

Square Enix Announces ‘Hitman: Absolution’ Pre-Order Bonus In ‘Hitman: Sniper Challenge’
  |  @   |  

When it comes to video games, usually companies will offer little pre-order bonuses in hopes that potential consumers will secure their copy early. These bonuses typically consist of a special weapon to use in combat, or perhaps a special suit of armor or outfit for your character to strut around in. Other times you’ll see DLC offered or a collectible usually reserved for special editions of a game, but Square Enix is doing something pretty darn cool for the upcoming fifth installment in the Hitman franchise, titled Hitman: Absolution.

For those who head over to GameStop and pre-order the game starting on May 15th, you’ll be given a standalone game titled Hitman: Sniper Challenge. And even though Hitman: Absolution doesn’t hit store shelves until November 20, 2012, you’ll be able to start playing Sniper Challenge the very day you pre-order.

  |  @   |  

A new series of gameplay trailers is on the way for the fifth game in the Hitman franchise, titled Hitman: Absolution.

The first of these trailers, which will all be completely composed of actual gameplay footage, re-introduces us to an old friend: Agent 47. It basically shows off the many options you’ll have as the iconic serial-coded assassin on your way to completing whatever mission you happen to be doing, and just how brutal things can get if you’re not in the mood do things cleanly.

Watch Now: ‘Hitman: Absolution’ Gameplay Preview Is Here!
  |  @   |  

We’ve been waiting for it for a painful amount of time, and now, finally, we have our very first peek at the gameplay of Hitman: Absolution, the fifth title in the mega–hit franchise.

Yes, there was the announcement trailer and that first cinematic trailer, but cinematics only take us so far. What we crave is gameplay footage, and perhaps more than any other, we craved gameplay footage from a new Hitman game. The last installment came out over five years ago, and fans have been desperate for a new title to get their hands on ever since.

E3 2011: Steamy New ‘Hitman: Absolution’ Cinematic Trailer, Plus New Game Details
  |  @   |  

Fitting to its premise, Hitman: Absolution had a very stealthy E3 2011 presence. Some “behind closed doors” demo work and Square Enix had a small group of lucky individuals raving about how great the game looks.

Despite staying in the shadows for the most part, the team that’s FINALLY making a new Hitman game (instead of another horrible Kane & Lynch) didn’t want to leave the rest of us empty handed. They brought with them a few details about the game, as well as a brand new cinematic trailer.

You can see the new cinematic trailer below, followed by an interview with some details about the game, which will be released sometime in 2012.
