About time. I loved Hitman Contracts and Blood Money.
Here's hoping IO Interactive will make a good game, because after playing Kane & Lynch 2 I...eugh.

wow just thinking about being chased or hunted by other agents and having to hide from or take them out is kinda getting me excited. or trying to beat other agents to a kill sounds awesome. lets hope it isnt screwed up by making it multiplayer.
110706? hmmmm
“This is both a familiar and yet significantly different experience from other Hitman games; something our silent assassins will relish, as will all those new to the Hitman world.”
if you are new to hitman and start with this one you should be shot. and i dont like the sounds of the "same but different." leads me to believe it will be multi. or lets hope co-op. maybe each player is an agent trying to take out a target with out being spotted etc by other players. kinda like the assassins creed game? that might be interesting. but i still stand against any multiplayer for hitman.

So Square Enix decided to play it safe this year after all the FF fiasco. Deux Ex, Thief, Hitman, Dead Island, etc.
I really get this disgusting feeling in my stomach that this game will be Kane and Lynch 2 with 47 in place of 2 sociopaths.
never played any hitman games and i have always wanted to go back and play them but like every game i missed as a kid now being grown up when i try to play them i can't get into them. i don't know why maybe if they release them all on the Xbox updated and stuff i would.
I strongly hope Square Enix makes this game like they did the older ones. Please don't make this a third person Call of Duty!
I'm excited!
"Something our silent assassins will relish, as will all those new to the Hitman world."
I really hope that's not code for, "We are trying to appeal to casual gamers now."

it's good Square has been reviving a lot of Eidos IP lately.
Deus EX HR, New Tomb Raider, and now this.
not really interested in the Hitman series.
now if they can make a new Legacy of Kain or Fear Effect :P

“For the first time we are taking Agent 47 on a personal journey which allows us to explore other parts of the Hitman® fantasy,” claimed director Tore Blystad.
How did Blystad pronounce the "®"?

I don't care about you guys
But I want some sort of Kane and lynch cameo in this game.
Since both can be in the same universe (If they already aren't)
Even something as simple as a radio or news report saying
*SPOILERS*
2 highly armed dangerous men have hijacked a plane from Tokyo Japan, more as it develops. Even something like that would be awesome.

Then do everyone a favor and stop reading it.
Anyway, glad to hear about this. Hopefully it comes out good.

Excellent! It's coming out soon too! I'm assuming the red numbers in the trailer was the date for release.
Ps. I hate the way brits and all those other @#%`~*($^s write dates. 11/07/06?!?! WTF!?!?!

Oh shit I'd be down for a new Fear Effect especially if they kept with the unique look. Oh man that would be awesome.

YES!
I have faith that they'll take care with this one. The Hitman series has always consisted of great games that are held back from the masses by a few technical problems. I expect the same here, and that's okay with me.
If they keep the same basic gameplay, upgrade the AI, and throw in a few dozen more ways to kill people I'll be happy.
Also, there should be a level where you go to the top of a large office building and assassinate the CEO of a game company whos 10 dollar map pack caused a shooting spree which killed the client's son.

That's awesome. I hear nothing but good things about this series. Always wanted to play a Hitman game and I might grab the latest one this summer.
I'd just wait for this one but apparently if I do that I should be shot.

Having an old character and being betrayed by an agency is what's in right now. Conviction, Payne 3, and what doesn't guarantee that we won't see Hitman with a few wrinkles?
I just had a horrible image in my head of this turning out to be more of a shooter. I hope that when they say, "...explore other parts of the Hitman fantasy." that they don't mean changing the core gameplay. That would be very unfortunate and makes Pikachu very angry.
@PrinceHeir
Don't give SE any credit here. They bought out Eidos in April 2009. These games were probably in develooment stages long before SE did anything of the sort.
I'll give SE credit when they give us a proper FFT2, another Chrono game, etc. from their own stash of quality IPs.

About damn time! go on IO Interactive make me proud to be Danish again!
No more of that silly Kane & whats his face anymore, right? RIGHT!?!?

Yeah well, I dunno about you guys but *I* have a raging erection right now. Want this game inside me immediately.
What first time? Hitman: Contracts had 47 going through past missions to figure out why he was a hitman. Regardless, this should be good. I highly doubt it will be any different than previous Hitman games, but I still enjoy the series.
Oh sweetness, hitman was my most favoritist awesome movie, I'm glad they're taking that great concept and turning it into a gaem!!!
@PrinceHeir
Okay, now you've got my hopes up for a new Fear Effect. You, Eidos, and SE better deliver!

@wanderingpixel:
Hitman: Absolution confirmed for Big Boss cameo appearance. Lol
In all seriousness though, I could see Kojima being interested in some kind of MGS reference since it's a stealth game. Look at Assassin's Creed.

@Drakengard
that's the thing square bought them and help some of their projects(square's visual art studio did Deus Ex HR CGI cutscenese)
actually i remember Eidos being dismay with their lukewarm releases. Tomb Raider isn't what it's used to be, no more Legacy of Kain games, Hitman might have been in development before the merger so i give you that, and just as Griven said. they lost millions of dollars, key people resigning and honestly if square didn't bought them i doubt we could have seen Deus Ex HR or the new Tomb Raider for what it is today.
and yes Square needs to do something about their IP. there like Capcom, tons of great IP's that are not being used. Darkstalkers, Onimusha, Chaos Legion, Dino Crisis, for square side Nier, Chrono Series, Xenogears, Saga Series, Mana series, etc....

IO and SE are too busy fapping to their own games from the '90s to make a great game.
On that note here's a good interview with Stan Liu, creator of Fear Effect.

@Xzyliac do yourself a favor and play the old ones! if you wait for this one you will be missing out on some of the best games ever. hitman is an amazing series, with a few flaws yes, but it no way ruins the experience. i mean you can push old ladies down the stairs or over balcony's!
quick side not if any one noticed that the first 6 numbers changed for a fraction of a second to red the orginal numbers are also 009910341 which have changed for the specific trailer. now the numbers are 110706 there are possibilities of it being a release date or demo date but for sure i know this. there was rumors saying this game was going to be previewed at e3 now for all of you who dont know what e3 is it is the entertainment electronic expo aka gaming convention. now e3 starts june 7 060711... this could be the only refference but there could be more well just have to wait until e3 or july 6 070611
