The original uploads of videos have been taken down, but we managed to save and reupload them. I also organized the videos in order as best as I can guess. Enjoy!
Hitman developer IO Interactive was approached by several IP holders, but eventually settled with the James Bond IP.
Interested in seeing how these turn out. An updated Goldeneye style game would be nice if they could take everything good about it but modernise it and expand/make better, without taking away that particular feel it had.
“with their version of Bond being closer to Daniel Craig’s than Roger Moore’s”
This is disappointing to hear, I liked the Craig films but they made Craig more like a tank, Bourne style, I was hoping for someone who looks like what Flemming envisioned for Bond with his sketch, it’s a video game they could literally do the most accurate Bond ever.
Someone who you’d underestimate, relies on gadgets, his environment and his quick thinking to get out of situations, Craig didn’t really have that.
Agreed. That "more Craig" comment is sadly what I expected, given that this game was made during and after Craig's tenure. I was hoping for Moore myself, or maybe even Brosnan since his version of Bond was between Moore and Connery.
The Hitman structure they seem to want do with multiple games makes me cautious. I suppose as long as each game can stand on its own - just as the old Bond movies did - all the while giving small tidbits of a larger threat until the ultimate confrontation, then I'll gladly keep backing these games.
The month of October is going to be filled with excitement as the Hitman franchise is commemorating its 25 years of being in the business.
It’s the 25th anniversary this year?
I’d have assumed it would have gotten something like a remastered trilogy of the original games or a remake of the first game. Something for a 25th celebration.
Super lacklustre
Now, when for years talking with IOI meant talking Hitman, this time around their two other, still under wraps projects were getting closer by the day. And Project Fantasy specifically, which had been linked to Xbox as early as in 2021, saw earlier this summer how the Activision acquisition all but confirmed, or leaked, its future publishing under the Xbox Games Studio logo.
It's been about 20 years since a good James Bond game. Not sure if its the nostalgia but the og Xbox just had banger after banger for the Bond games
I think it's nostalgia the only two bond games I consider good are Goldeneye and from Russia with love which was an 6th gen game on PS and Xbox (think it skipped GameCube) the last under EA before Activision started making bond of duty games
I hope Project Fantasy is exclusive to Xbox and more games become exclusive to Xbox in the next few years as it might get Sony to become a 3rd party publisher and release all their 1st party games on Future Xbox consoles.
Hahahahahahaha 🤣😂 most unrealistic fantasy ever put to words hahahaha
Also ironic since Xbox is pretty much a 3rd party publisher already, not a chance they'll make anymore hardware.
@Vengence if you think MS will stop making hardware now that’s an unrealistic fantasy 😂😂😂 why would they stop making hardware to solely depend on making money on the competition hardware ?? That’s kind of dumb .. they didn’t buy studios to stop making hardware lol
@wiz
Not sure if you keep up with latest events but Microsofts big push is no console required to play their games. Starfield has a big marketing ad to play straight from Samsung TVs on their hub (no console required) .
Xbox is just a subscription service nothing more. Play it on phones, tablet, PC etc literally no reason in the world for Microsoft to make another console, it's against their whole strategy. Not to mention current Xbox hardware sales are horrendous, can't even crack 30M when Sony is beyond 40M. Nobody needs an Xbox.
@Vengence what are you talking about ? The Xbox app you have to have a Xbox to use any functionality .. when I stream through the Xbox app it uses My Xbox , I cannot stream anything if my Xbox isn’t connected to the internet. I’m guessing ppl never heard of OPTIONS before SMFH .. Just because someone gives you more options to get into the ecosystem doesn’t mean they will drop their dedicated gaming machine. You think MS will take the same route Stadia did ?? Only fools on N4G believe that .. think about it like this wtf would they stop making hardware to develop for Sony or Nintendo .. Who are worth way less than they are ? They could just out right buy them both lol .. half you ppl on here don’t know wtf y’all be talking about lol you can only stream certain games on mobile and tablets , so you’ll still need a Xbox regardless. It takes consistent work and release of good games to easily increase sales , lol I own all three so I can enjoy everything like a REAL gamer should.
@wiz
Oh man what an absolute mess of a rant you just vomited lol you really reveal your fanboyism for Xbox. It's incredibly hilarious how you somehow brought up company worth into your unhinged rant like it has any impact on anything. MS has always been worth more than Sony and Nintendo since they entered the industry, how's that working out for them? Oh right last place every generation. Do you know why Gamepass exists? Because Sony beat MS so incredibly badly and humiliated them that they had to think up a whole new way to exist lol 😆
Also buy them?? Do you realize MS did try to buy Nintendo once and Nintendo literally laughed in their face LOL That's how much of a joke MS is. Sony would do the same, Microsoft would have to run out of the meeting room humiliated once again lol. All that money and it's useless to them. How's Bethesda working out? Oh right they haven't moved the needle at all.
Xbox is done making hardware. If they did, it'd be incredibly hypocritical to their own marketing. No console needed just like Starfield. Play on a TV, nobody needs an Xbox.
Go ahead name one game where anyone NEEDS an Xbox to play lol I bet you can't do it.
So adorable lol ohhh a REAL gamer oh wow, we all better watch out for you hahaha ha, big kid in town.
.
If anything, with the way they are going and what their overall goals seems to be, you have more chance of Xbox becoming third party than Sony
And you know it
LOL! That some weak trolling. Anyways Xbox may not even be around for much longer the way their low sales has been going.
Lmao that's not going to happen. You want sony games, buy a playstation or wait for them to come to pc. It's far more likely that xbox will become a 3rd party publishers since they continually finish last place and their push towards gamepass is growing. They will probably end up exiting the console market and become a huge 3rd party publisher.
I’m not excited at all because you’re not going to be able to play it off line and they’re gonna come out with a bunch of different packages that makes the entire game a mess!
Been a very long time since we got a good 007 game, and I don't count the recent barebones ports of Goldeneye either, I hope it's good.
I really hope they design Bond to look like the classic sketch Flemming did of him
Also I really hope this gets a vocal theme song for the game.
Amazing!
If we're talking Movies, go see ant man amazing movie, still for the two post credits, in anycase, I'll be waiting for thhe complete disc-based game.
The up next video is really inappropriate after this one is played.
Ah yes, love that you can do load outs this time around. Didn't like that I couldn't customize or change my weapons before each mission in Absolution.
Umm.. It looks really old.. Like last gen old..
