Test Chamber – Hitman: Absolution

Test Chamber

If assassination was considered an art form, Hitman's Agent 47 would be its Michelangelo, livening up seamy underworlds around the globe with frescos painted in the blood of his enemies. Like previous Hitman games, Absolution allows players to take out their targets in a variety of ways, using disguises and environmental hazards to aid their murderous intentions. In this episode of Test Chamber, associate editor Jeff Marchiafava walks Ben Reeves and Jeff Cork through a trio of imaginative kill options in the crowded streets of Chinatown. Well, okay – two imaginative kill options. The third just involves shooting everyone in sight.

Join our hosts as they deal with drug peddlers, corrupt police officers, and Ben's disturbing fetish for chicken costumes.

Sunday morning Test Chamber? Nice! But you guys will have to work pretty hard to beat Conan's play time with this game. Let's see how you do :)

Agent 47 and a Test Chamber, today is going to be a good day.

This will tide me over till I go to Gstop to get some Wii U stuff.

Wearing a duck suit and shooting melons, looks like we got a real "hit" on our hands, "man".

Finally after 6+ years Hitman is back! I can't wait for tuesday.

Don't understand why this got a lower score than AC3 when it looks more inspired than AC3. Not saying it was a bad game or anything I just don't understand thats all.

Ben I f*cking love you for the trolling you did in this video! Usually I hate that crap but you brought up a good point with the point system and the Splinter Cell thing.
by dodgyboyy Sunday, November 18, 2012 at 08:32 AM

graphics and everything look really great but the fact that the ai seems to be semi retarded is a massive immersion breaker.. is there a hard mode? that guard didn't notice you smash up the circuit box thing, no civilians saw you choke him out 5 feet away down the stairs, idk maybe i am being picky..
by Boyzby Sunday, November 18, 2012 at 08:49 AM

I would imagine that the Bizarre Detective could track down Agent 47 and stalk him by dressing up in various costumes...

looks fun
by QuietFarmer Sunday, November 18, 2012 at 09:27 AM

sick
by Mitch Sunday, November 18, 2012 at 09:28 AM

I would totally dress up in a chicken costume and walk up to the king and shoot him.
by Palor Sunday, November 18, 2012 at 09:29 AM

hmm, I guess this is the way games are going trying to focus on a larger audience but that was not impressive to me. Seemed overly easy (not the combat at the end but the first 2 assassinations). Perhaps that was because it was only the second level, but I dont see much depth here. I guess I will wait for a Steam 50% off sale.

EAT THIS TACO!!!

No Jim Reilly reluctantly playing a game?

Can these videos be longer?
by purplecloud Sunday, November 18, 2012 at 10:45 AM

I can't wait to play this game.
by twevy Sunday, November 18, 2012 at 11:05 AM

This looks insanely good.

Never knew that the GI editors were such maniacs in games. . .
