I recently got this game on a Steam special since I "missed" it at launch. First up, I've never really been a fan of the Hitman series, nor have I played the previous games all that much. So this game was a new start for me.
First up, the story was actually rather good. I got sucked into it quickly, but would have benefited from knowing some back story I believe.
The game itself is a bucket load of fun. The mechanics and gameplay is something more unique than I'm used to, and enjoyed it thoroughly. The graphics is also very pretty, but there's a bit too much lens flair for my taste. Also, NPC's in game are not good looking up close and personal.
Overall I am enjoying my time with the game, and I can see myself playing it for a bit longer. There are some nice replay incentives, and I am yet to try the multiplayer aspect of the game.
