Thanks David of 8BallsHW for mailing me about his review you might be interested in.

"Hitman 2: Silent Assassin is the sequel to Hitman: Codename 47 by the Danish game developers IO Interactive. While Hitman: Codename 47 did garner quite an interest in the gaming community, it was quite a disappointment due to major flaws in the game; odd game controls and a number of bugs were among them. Fortunately IO Interactive have learned from those mistakes and managed to iron out all the problems, and the result is an amazing gameplay experience that is among the best in recent shooters."
