How many versions of this game are they going to release. Yeah it's a decent game but this is the third iteration of the game. First it was the regular edition, then the game of the year edition, and now the definitive edition. Next it will be The Ultimate Gold Super Ultra Remix Edition.
@zimbogamer I think they're just trying to amass as many funds as possible since going independent.
@get2sammyb that's what i was thinking too
Will it finally get a platinum trophy or will that be saved for the Hitman: Definitive with a Vengeance Edition?
I was just joking around lol. If there is money to be made then by all means they should go for it.
@zimbogamer a HD collection of previous Hitman games, released on current systems would make them money
plus they have the old Trilogy collections released on the PS3 and 360 to work off too so it shouldn't take a lot really
Does this version of the game have a platinum yet? I'd probably make the effort to kill every single target in all of the hilarious ways provided if I knew I was working towards an imaginary award.
@RogerRoger do you have a XB1, Absolution is on it's backwards compatibility service and it looks and runs pretty good
how does this compare to the steelbook of the previous "complete first season edition"? i bet nobody would know the answer to this because it is so confusing...
Thanks for the announcement! I already own the First Season Steelbook and GOTY DLC though, so I'll have to pass.
Linking this for friends that still haven't bought the game though.
