Just finished this one yesterday. It was my second experience with the series, after playing Blood Money many years ago. It was fun, but not very memorable. The story has a decent premise, and I enjoyed the way 47 was portrayed, but the villains are so unimaginative and stupid that none of them gave me any satisfaction when I beat them. That are also too many boring levels with limited options to approach, but the exceptions provided some really exciting moments.

I thought about writing a proper review, but anarchistica has already said everything I could discuss about the game, so I'd rather point to that one. It was as cool game, but not even close to Blood Money. I'll be trying 2016 in the future with much higher expectations.
