Great stuff thanks for the heads up. This and uncharted 4 beta that's my weekend sorted :laughing:

Is this a multiplayer beta or like a demo with a mission? Not really interested in multiplayers for these two games
Begize to elninoteddy
4 Mar 16#19
Says it's a 1 player mission, details from the PSN site as follows:
This unique mission revolves around 47’s recruitment into the ICA and shows the very first time that 47 meets his long-time handler, Diana Burnwood.
Sure to be a monumental experience for long-time fans of the series and the perfect starting point for newcomers to the game you must also prove your skills and prowess in two engineered hits before you are officially an agent of the ICA.

Played this last week as I preordered. Presuming it's the same, it's just two missions but has many achievements to complete it certain ways. Worth playing!

Was looking forward to this new hitman and was going to pre-order it, but just played this beta and its just made me change my mind. I'll wait until it's cheaper come a few months.

I'm so disappointed that they're releasing Hitman in this way. Beta, episodic, digital etc. I want to buy the game, on a disc, and play it beginning to end. Just like the old days ;-)
burningmoney77 to Brevster
4 Mar 16#28
Yep that's why i will be avoiding this game till it is dirt cheap when they finally release the full game on disk, do not like their business model.

My PS Plus lapsed about six months ago. I have two years worth of codes to redeem but have not felt the need to. This piqued my interest but I have the Uncharted beta and Far Cry Primal to keep me busy this weekend. Hot for the heads up but need more than this to get me to sign up to Plus again :stuck_out_tongue:

Ps+ is garbage and mine won't be renewed until uncharted 4, as beta was okay. Much prefer xbl (gold etc) Sony really need to overhaul ps+ to make it more desirable.

5 Mar 161#44
I personally don't understand all the PS+ comments. If you have a PS4 you need it to play online. The free games are a bonus. Got an Xbox as well but have always preferred PS.

Does anyone get bored of the ps plus is crap comments on here. Surely if someone doesn't like something they should just cancel it. I don't like fish fingers but I don't bang on about how crap I think they are every time they are on hukd on offer. Its quite simple I just don't buy them.
Me and my son love PS PLUS so there. <3

If that's the Single Player game to come it's basically the same as the others with a different story. Looks about the same and I'll be damned if that ship kitchen isn't the same as the boat kitchen on the last Hitman game. :smile:

All too common online these days, a different opinion translates into fanboyism! Personally I find ps plus disappointing. We had good free games on PS3 and online gaming was free- now it's a flat £40 and the PS4 offerings tend to be poor most months.
trick23
5 Mar 16#53
Well said. On ps3 it was superb and still is. Suppose in a few years we might start getting good games again but think some of the early games like kill overshadow fall should now be on plus!

Any news on whether Hitman: Absolution is going to make it onto Xbox One backwards compatibility? Ta.
Thanks OP.
Would have missed this being in the free section. Unplugged ps4 to setup computer and at work at the moment so will probably not be downloaded by end of weekend.
pfagan10
5 Mar 16#58
Yeah I totally agree. I think they are missing a trick just now. There all full retail, albeit average, games we should have had already to boost the line up. Killzone, the first Need for Speed etc. They could even throw in Evolve, a game that's clearly dying as its online only, it would boost the online community to get people back into it. I know Microsoft done something with Titanfall once it's online element was waning, it wasn't free, but reduced to £5-10 for the digital version?! I guess so many people are buying the console that they think these games will still sell at a fair price. Got both betas downloading just now, Hitman is tempting!

Just been playing through this, absolutely loving it. It's like they took the best of Absolution and the best of Blood Money and turned them into the game I've been craving for years.

Graphics are ridiculously poor for Ps4. Absolution graphics on PS3 were so much better. How many times and they still haven't been able to get it right?

Possibly a very dumb question I know as I'm not even sure there is any multiplayer.

It's basically a training mission, there's multiple ways to complete an objective. It's pretty good but I'm slightly biased as I love stealth games.
MungoSplodge
6 Mar 16#71
After the opening moments i thought this had the potential to be excellent, but then it slipped down badly in my opinion. The graphics aren't great, the gunplay isn't great, the stealth isn't great....
I think the training mission areas don't do the game any favours, they are so bland and sterile.

I used to want this game, after playing this I will give it a miss. Mind numbingly easy and boring... Granted it's only the demo, but with this AI, it's laughable what you can get away with without any thinking on your feet! Shame.

I don't go on ps+ everyday so there's a good chance some other people don't either. I'm grateful for the info provided, and it seems other people are too.
