"A Game With Attitude"
Version: Hitman: Blood Money demo
Pros
Multiple paths to the goal. You can sneak by, or go in blazing and leave a swarth of destruction in your wake. Pay no attention to those who can't get this to run on Mommy's PC. On a real gaming box the motion is fluid and seamless.
Cons
The girls have too much clothing on.

"I wish you guys would make a demo that works."
Version: Hitman: Blood Money demo
Pros
The hyped up marketing and trailers were great.
Cons
I wasn't able to open it on any computer and believe me I tried. I kept getting a stupid error message about some missing dll, even after I downloaded the patch. I was just too disgusted, especially since I have been looking forward to this game for such a long time and I am huge hitman fan.

"Too good for my computer!"
Version: Hitman: Blood Money demo
Pros
Excellent audio and visuals, the opening scenes are riveting. Dialog is certainly, ahhh, realistic. Good hints screen.
Cons
I need a major graphics card upgrade, game is very graphics intensive. I needed to download a 3D DirectX driver that didn't come with Windows XP or the game. Long load times, but it does run. Having not played the prior games in this series, I'm not familiar with established keyboard controls and the demo only shows 3 scene-specific keystrokes (e, g and spacebar).

"Doesn't work!"
Version: Hitman: Blood Money demo

Demo doesn't work! There is a file missing on the install (re-installed twice to make sure). Someone should email Eidos and tell them their demo that they've been sending emails out for doesn't work!

"Nothing like the previous Hitman games...."
Version: Hitman: Blood Money demo
Pros
Looks nice.
Cons
Oh boy! The new control scheme is terrible. They took the action button and made it into three different buttons - action, pickup and drop/throw. To drag a body, I have to push action, then I have to press drop to drop the body instead of pressing action again. The older controls worked faster and better. I don't know if this level will be in final game will be like, but this was a terrible design. It was linear - a straight passage through the level from start to end and no way to deviate from it. The objectives are told to you in such detail that you cannot help but complete the game. Example: Enter office. Pick up syringe. Walk upstairs. It's designed for absolute idiots to play. And methods of completing the objectives were limited to following what you are told or just shooting them. There was no variety. Meanwhile, options that made the previous Hitman games so great are gone. I removed one person's clothes in the entire demo. Everyone else gave me no option to remove their clothes and disguise myself. Four games in, why change the proven formula? And the demo ran horribly. I have a reasonably good computer for today’s games. P4 1ghz, 1gb RAM, and an ATI Radeon x700 Pro. I can run Hitman Contracts are top quality, no problem. I can run Doom 3 on high, no problem. I can run FarCry at maximum, no problem. Hitman Blood Money wouldn’t run on low without getting a bad framerate and it looked terrible, worse than the original Hitman! I'd expect the game to look bad, but not to run bad, too. The low quality setting should at least look as good as Hitman Contracts. Not to mention, it was buggy. When I shot anyone, he stood still for a few seconds before falling. Overall, the mass changes to the gameplay and controls make it play like it was built for morons and I don't understand why this game needs so much power when it's not even the best looking game on the market. I hope this demo doesn't reflect the final product. And if it doesn't reflect the final product, why was it released as a demo?

"Visually amazing but somewhat glitched."
Version: Hitman: Blood Money demo
Pros
The visuals are breathtaking. Display options are very detailed. Gameplay looks variable. Controls are more accessible, agent 47 looks pissed as ever. The end game will definately kick some ass
Cons
The download file was damn long. At first many users would find difficulty starting the game (gives a wierd dx3d_27.dll error) even if u have the recommended nvidia card or the latest directx. The game looks bugged. Random graphical glitches especially on the lower right hand side of the screen. Sometimes controls are less responsive.
