Hitman Series of Games


Hitman is a video game franchise available on PC and several video game consoles. It revolves around a man known as Agent 47(usually simply referred to as 47), an assassin for hire, whose skills place him in high demand for jobs. The games contain a considerable amount of violence and are rated Mature (17+) by the Entertainment Software Rating Board.
All four games have centered around third-person, but it is possible to switch back and forth seamlessly to and from first-person in all of the games except the first.
The games were developed by Danish developer IO Interactive, now a division of Eidos Interactive. Four games have been released in the series: Hitman: Codename 47 (2000), Hitman 2: Silent Assassin (2002), Hitman: Contracts (2004), and Hitman: Blood Money(2006).
A Hitman film adaptation is set to be released in 2007. Timothy Olyphant will play the role of Agent 47.
The games have been noted for their impressive musical scores by Jesper Kyd.
Another installment in the Hitman franchise for the next generation systems (360 and PS3) has been announced by Eidos
