Title: Hitman: Code Delayed Post by: Shockeye on July 16, 2005, 02:56:21 PM Quote from: Kikizo Games Hitman and Tomb Raider Held Back (http://games.kikizo.com/news/200507/082.asp) Cheers as SCi takes over Eidos and holds top games back to make them not-rubbish. Gamers eager to handle Agent 47's piano wire again are going to have to sit tight until next year. Eidos has confirmed that both Hitman: Blood Money and Lara Croft's new outing, Tomb Raider: Legend, have been delayed until early 2006. But while the hold-up is disappointing, it does have its advantages. The delays mean that gamers can expect better experiences from the next Hitman and Tomb Raider games. Eidos told MCV that the games have been given more time in development to "maximise their hit potential". Lara's last game, Tomb Raider: Angel of Darkness was widely believed to have been rushed out to meet financial demands and it suffered as a result, earning poor reviews and passing by many game buyers. The delays will, however, particularly annoy Hitman fans who have seen the new instalment's release slip by nearly a year from its original spring date. Alex Wollenschlaeger Editor, Kikizo Games Somewhere Haemish is crying over a delay to Lara.

Also, does Deus Ex 2 still run like shit? I'd give it a shot again if it didn't.

But it looks and runs fine, specially with the high res texture packs by John P ( also made some great graphical improvements for Theif 3 ). If gameplay is choppy, it's really time to invest in a new computer. Title: Re: Hitman: Code Delayed Post by: Strazos on July 18, 2005, 08:52:24 AM I remember when gameplay was choppy with my old nVidia card and a gig of ram.
The game is just shit, and it's still sitting in the hugeass box it came in. The same place I put it the first week it was out. |
