[Rumor] PS3 Hitman HD Collection leaked by retailer
It looks like Hitman will be the next franchise to cash in on the HD remake compilation craze or at least according to Italian retailer 16Games it will.
The online store describes this collection as a HD do-over of the previous PC and PS2 compilation The Hitman Triple Pack (which contains Hitman 2, Hitman 3, and Hitman: Blood Money) and lists it as a PS3 exclusive with an October 15 release date and €30, or $37 price tag.
Square Enix and Edios have yet to comment on this product posting, so like many “retail leaks” before it, we’ll be stamping it with the trusty rumor label until we get some kind of official word from the publisher or developer.
Considering the release of Hitman: Absolution will happen only a little over a month after this “release,” its existence is definitely plausible but the October 15 release date is kinda odd. I mean don’t European games usually launch on Fridays? Also, why no Hitman 1?
Regardless, what do you think Hitman fans? Would you be willing to buy these games again (perhaps for the second time), to play them in high definition?

Hitman 3 revisited several of the first games highlights via flashbacks. There is no need for the first one.
Dr. Wondertainment
What about for the story?
Lipnox88
this is hitman not mass effect, its about giving us decently sized freeroam levels to conduct assassinations in and have an endless amount of ways to get the job done. The story is a just Blah blah to give a reason behind what hes doing. for my taste they would get rid of the story and instead focus solely on great levels.
Dr. Wondertainment
Yeah, I know. I was kinda half joking when I said it.

Great... Now people can fully appreciate the disparity between Absolution and the previous games in the franchise...
Dr. Wondertainment

Okay, did you make that? Well done, that was quite funny.

I wish... and hence why I posted it.

I'll stick with the original PC versions of Hitman: Codename 47, Hitman 2, Contracts, & Blood Money. The ones that are ALREADY HD and don't have fubared controls... yeah the the console ports controls are a shoehorned awkward mess thanks to them trying to map too much functionality to to few buttons. Also the consoles aint got the first game :)
