I’ve never played a consoley Hitman nor tried a controller, but I loved the original hitman (silent assassin) and the original series sequels up till about Blood Money. I didnt enjoy Absolution, it’s too choreographed unlike the originals where you could actually be creative and kill people in a variety of ways.

Then got pretty confused when I realised they reset the numbering with “Hitman” and “Hitman 2” (why do games do this?) and just gave up at that point and haven’t tried them or anything newer

Amazing, this was one of Weird Al’s songs that I just always assumed was an original because it’s just so weird. But it turns out it was just a parody of an original that was already pretty weird!
