I really enjoyed my time playing this, it was exactly the kind of game I needed at the time. I loved the semi-open world design but where the game really shines is it's story. The pacing is fantastic, with no filler. The second half of the story is some of my favourite storytelling in recent years, it wouldn't feel out of place in cinema. My only issue with the game is the gameplay, whilst the driving is great the combat felt lacklustre and dated. If not for that, this game would've easily got another star.

Decent enough game that felt like a cash grab, a lot of the remixes were poor too.
Has to be the worst game I’ve ever played. Honestly the only reason it gets a half star is the graphics are nice. That’s it.
Really enjoyed my time with this one, great Crash game. The bosses were fun and the levels were brilliantly designed. Wasn’t a huge fan of the new mechanics though.
Had a lot of fun playing this for the most part, I feel the game peaks really early and you fight best colossi early on. Also wasn’t a fan of the horses controls and actually navigating the land was mind numbing at times. Still loved it though.

Mixed feelings on this, I really loved the sections with the Alien and enjoyed getting killed by the incredible AI non-stop. I feel like the game was a few hours longer than it should’ve been and constantly turning on generators etc got boring sometimes.

Really enjoyed revisiting a game that I adored as a child. Lots of quality of life improvements and is really a great remake. The game is still absolutely hilarious and I can’t wait for the sequels remake as I preferred that one.
Probably the best fighting game I’ve ever played, absolutely loved my time with it and I don’t even like fighting games much. The story was pretty great too but the most fun I had was unlocking outfits for my characters in the towers and playing online.
Enjoyed playing this for the most part, it was fun revisiting the world of Samurai Jack even if the gameplay felt a bit lacklustre for me. At times the game can look beautiful though and overall I had a good time playing it.
Overall I enjoyed this game but I have a lot of issues with it. Whilst I think the gameplay early on was amazing and the things you can do in the game are brilliant but by the end of the game I felt bored due to a lack of mission variety. More indoor sequences would’ve been great too as opposed to always being open world. Most maps feel unfinished, and boss battles become glorified damage sponges. While I love the stealth gameplay the actual combat leaves a lot to be desired in my opinion. All those issues aside, listening to the tapes makes the game a lot better narratively for me and gives Venom Snake a lot more personality I wish you saw more in game.

Will always love replaying this.

Whilst the immersive simulator genre isn’t for me personally, Hitman 3 is definitely my favourite of its kind. You can tell the levels are crafted with a lot of care and there’s lots of ways to achieve your objectives which is a little overwhelming for me but that in no way makes it a bad game. I think it’s great.
If I’m honest I don’t feel this has aged fantastically. That said, I do think it’s a good game. Maybe my nostalgia built it up in my head too much.

An absolute masterpiece, 10/10.

Didn’t quite hit the heights of the original sadly, 9/10 for me.
