Hitman: Absolution trailer features vicious femme fatale...nuns?

47 goes blasphemous

Words: Andrew Groen on May 30, 2012

In the last gameplay trailer the Clergy were like lambs to the slaughter, held hostage and murdered by a gang of thugs. This time they strap on their combat boots and show they are not to be trifled with.

After seeing what a huge role religion obviously plays in Absolution, we're going to assume that Square Enix will go JRPG-style and make God-himself Agent 47's final target.

Those are some guards I wouldn't mind sneak up behind if you know what I mean. And was the mother superior meant to be Whoopi Goldberg? What exactly did this trailer even show, it was obviously CG, and we all know 47 can use a garrat wire, so what have we learned?

I couldn't help laughing at the Nun that pulled out the missile launcher. But those are some good-looking nuns. Were. Well, at least the graphics look amazing, even if it's pre-rendered/cutscene. The first shot of him in the bathroom cleaning his wounds, I thought it was live action. And I was SERIOUSLY hoping they hadn't re-recruited Timothy Oliphant.

So thats why there are no attractive nuns, they are all either trying to kill agent 47 or have been killed by him.

Also: "we're going to assume that Square Enix will go JRPG-style and make God-himself Agent 47's final target." Don't even joke about that type of shit.

I disagree. Inappropriate for what? A video game? The internet? Life? Lighten up, it's a joke. I'm sure "God" has a sense of humor.

It wasn't meant like that. At least not my comment. I mean, to joke about Square turning a good series into some final fantasy study of self pretty boy crap is just insulting.

Nice to see they're still shoehorning sex into their games so they'll sell better
