We’ve featured Joey Logano, the driver who races the No 20 GameStop Toyota in NASCAR’s Nationwide Series, several times before. He’s had some awesome car wraps before, hoods dedicated to Bioshock 2 or Red Dead Redemption — things that still look a little strange turning left at 190km/h.
The next Hitman game will be out on November 20 for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC, Square Enix said today in a press release.
Now that’s a question that you’ll only hear in a video game trailer. Or at least I hope you only hear it in a video game trailer. I bet Hitman: Absolution‘s Agent 47 gets that all the time.
Agent 47 may just look like a bald guy in a suit from the front but that iconic barcode on the back of his neck lets you know that there’s something different about him. Something deadly.
All my friend wanted was a simple, get-rid-of-it-on-Craigslist estimate for an original Xbox, two controllers, and about a dozen games. He knew that what he had was too common in its time, too obsolete in the present, to qualify as some latter-day Antiques Roadshow jackpot. Still, I couldn’t bring myself to appraise it at $US25. At that price, I could see him leaving it by the curb, sitting sadly on an old chair with a “FREE” sign, to be claimed by scavengers or the garbage man.
Forget everything you know about Agent 47, the bald-headed, barcoded contract killer of IO Interactive’s Hitman franchise. He does not don disguises, creep in the shadows or deliver death with surgical precision. He is not a professional. Well, at least he doesn’t have to be.
At least a new Hitman trademark. Square Enix Europe recently trademarked “Hitman: Profession”. Not to be confused with 2012′s Hitman: Absolution, this could be either a new Hitman, DLC, or a port. [Siliconera via Multiplayer]
The Spike VGAs aren’t about awards. They’re about trailers. Here’s one for the new Hitman game, Absolution.
A new Hitman game will begin development next year in Montreal, according to the game’s publisher, Square-Enix Eidos. The game will be made by a new studio opening in 2012 called Square-Enix Montreal, a sister to Square-Enix Eidos, makers of Deus Ex: Human Revolution.
