March 7, 2004	Dissecting The Trailer 03/07/2004 Why do they tease us? Why? Perhaps it's because watching the second Hitman: Contracts trailer evokes enough ethereal energy to make fans want to hop a plane to Denmark, break into IO Interactive's offices and steal the master disc (please don't do this).

November 23, 2002	Hitman 2: Better Or Worse? 11/23/2002 The fans waited, and IO-Interactive delivered.

Here's what: milk every last drop of creative content from the game we do have, whatever the cost to credibility. [Click Here]

December 19, 2001	Where's Tobias? Perhaps the biggest surprise with the announcement of Hitman 2 was the sparse amount plot information released, placing the now unemployed Hitman in the care of a priest at a small Italian monastery.

March 18, 2001	Hitman Smut Extravaganza! This site receives loads of daily screenshot submissions each week, and not surprisingly, about one in every four contains some sort of sexual innuendo.

January 10, 2001	Side Effects of a 47th Chromosome Sure, the Hitman may be able to withstand multiple gun-shot wounds, make silent kills with relative ease, and laugh in the face of heavily armed thugs. But is a 47th chromosome really all it's cracked up to be? [Click Here]
