    Well I can wait a year to buy this.. Then it will also be patched up and working perfectly.

    But then again, since I have started using GOG Galaxy 2.0 launcher for all my games, it might not matter where I buy the game.

    Question is: could i get my Hitman I+II locations, missions and unlocks from my steam account into Hitman III on EGS?

    If not i am forced to wait 1 year anyway whether i like EGS or not.

    honestly i think these games are fine for the new breed of gamers, but its just doing the same crap you did 20 years ago on the old ones for older gamers.

    i wonder how many of us actually give a rats about the achievements at the end of everything.

    Oh, not the VR version of the game...I have no interest in that whatsoever.

    Hitman 2016, and Hitman two are very good games - excellent level design and play mechanics that allow unlimited freedom on how to complete a contract, with, the addition of user-based contracts available every-time you want to play a fresh game.

    Solid stuff....but VR makes me want to puke, so no, no thanks.

    In the interim, my favourite 'tuber on Hitman is of course, Bigmooney:



    Just look at the well their own graphics engine is working out for them, top stuff.

    Same here, if this doesn’t carry over the integration between games like 1&2 if those titles are on Steam, then it’s an instant no for me.

    I wonder if EGS is ever going to try to add a real review system or any of the other Steam functionality so that it can compete without these sort of tactics? It will be a long, painful fade into obscurity once the fortnite money eventually stops unless they can make their platform an actual competitor to Steam...

    Looks like that fortnite scuffle isn’t hurting their shady bribing bottom line.

    I find the series confusing. I played one of them but not sure which one it was but had good graphics at the time and never bought any others because I was confused by the naming scheme as to which one was the newest.
