Hitman series Megathread - "Names are for friends, so i don't need one" - Games

[QUOTE=PieClock;38507020]Yup. I just finished up my preload about 5 minutes ago and got myself an Australian VPN working and ready. Hyped as fuck.[/QUOTE] Which VPN are you going to be using, my usual one decided to nuke their russian and aus nodes so now it's only got europe and US.

[QUOTE=DaDillsta;38507213]Is using a VPN really safe? It seems like that Valve wouldn't like that idea, I did it once a while ago for Assassin's Creed, but I stayed in offline mode, it seems like you'd need online or something for this but idk.[/QUOTE] If it wasn't safe, I would've been banned by now. I've done it for quite a few major releases this year. As long as you don't buy games while under a VPN, they won't give a fuck.

[QUOTE=eddy-tt-;38507221]Which VPN are you going to be using, my usual one decided to nuke their russian and aus nodes so now it's only got europe and US.[/QUOTE] I looked for about an hour and a half for a free VPN with an australian server but came up with nothing. Closest I got was [url=http://www.vpnsecure.me/]this[/url] which gives you a 2 day trial for $2. (If you do this, pick the OpenVPN option). If you're not in that much of a hurry to play then just find a free russian VPN and wait an extra few hours. There's many about with all the russian cd keys business and stuff going on. Also, to the other guy talking about bans, as usual, nothing will happen. I've activated maybe 20-30 games on steam via vpn and shit all has happened.

I found this one: [url]http://en.kryptotel.net/kryptovpndemo.html[/url] Not sure if it's legit or AU, but it appears to be from a forum.

I think valve only don't like it when you use a VPN to get cheaper prices

Ok I found a working one, I had to use a mobile number but it works seemingly, have an Australian IP until the 21st, maybe it'll work out.

[QUOTE=DaDillsta;38507916]Ok I found a working one, I had to use a mobile number but it works seemingly, have an Australian IP until the 21st, maybe it'll work out.[/QUOTE] Tell us what service it is?

[QUOTE=DaDillsta;38507916]Ok I found a working one, I had to use a mobile number but it works seemingly, have an Australian IP until the 21st, maybe it'll work out.[/QUOTE] Mind giving a link?

[QUOTE=Mr Flexi;38507126]I don't plan on using a VPN. :v:[/QUOTE] You don't really count. Since due to austrailia's position at the bottom of the world all the time flows down towards you and as such you are like three days ahead of us at all times.

Polygon Review: [url]http://www.polygon.com/game/hitman-absolution/2716#review_update_3428217[/url] [B]8.5/10[/B] [quote]Hitman: Absolution is a faster, more streamlined game than its predecessors, but that only makes it different, not bad. The dark humor has been toned down, but still peeks through. The same anti-hero menace and professional purpose remains. And more importantly, the core purpose and gameplay that's always driven the Hitman series is still there. It's not as cerebral as Hitman: Blood Money. But that doesn't stop Hitman: Absolution from being a smart, unique action title, and a hell of a lot of fun. [/quote]

Does anybody know if they're going to be adding the retailer DLC to Steam after the launch? I really want that damn tuxedo. [IMG]http://www.gamersbliss.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/HitmanAbsolutionRetailPre-orders.jpg[/IMG]

I just got back from a mini vacation and started to read the reviews. Holy shit that PC Gamer review is such a joke. It really blows my mind they haven't fired that guy yet. If I remember correctly he defended the ME3 ending? Also how can you review a current Gen game correctly with a core duo and ATI 4800 accurately?

that ica outfit looks bamf.

How many more hours for AUS?

It's a damn shame GMG doesn't give out keys till Tuesday :(

[IMG]http://horobox.reager.org/u/Jojje_1353321148.jpg[/IMG] Less than 24 hours remain. Made this a week ago for this day. Also I plan to use Hideme.ru so, check that one out

11 more hours for me, I don't think I need the VPN then. Correct?

[QUOTE=GNJF;38508634]11 more hours for me, I don't think I need the VPN then. Correct?[/QUOTE] nope you should be good to go

[QUOTE=peterson;38508565]Is that seriously what he was using? Source please Dear lord. [editline]19th November 2012[/editline] 13[/QUOTE] Its less than 13 because I checked a while ago and it was at 12 More like 9-10 hours I think.

Holy shit, I didn't realize this was coming out so soon, I thought it was coming out next year, fuck I need to scrounge some change to buy this

[QUOTE=PieClock;38508649]Its less than 13 because I checked a while ago and it was at 12 More like 9-10 hours I think.[/QUOTE] Really? Good thing I fixed my sleep schedule then cause when I wake up, its unlock time then play all day!

From the review sites that I actually trust, I haven't heard great things. But I'm still kind of excited, pre-ordered it for $30 on GMG and I know I'll certainly enjoy it enough to warrant that price.

[QUOTE=Panthereye;38508570]It's a damn shame GMG doesn't give out keys till Tuesday :([/QUOTE] We'll see, it's a possibility tomorrow though.

[QUOTE=PieClock;38508649]Its less than 13 because I checked a while ago and it was at 12 More like 9-10 hours I think.[/QUOTE] You are correct. 9 hours to go.

i couldn't sleep earlier, spun round in my bed from 4AM-5AM. too excited for this

[QUOTE=Jojje;38508727]i couldn't sleep earlier, spun round in my bed from 4AM-5AM. too excited for this[/QUOTE] I've been up since 6pm (lazy weekend) and it's now 4:40am, and the game comes out for me at about 1pm, and I don't want to be bothered sleeping. :v:

I remember when Blood Money came out I told my mom I was going to be a Hitman. Strangely she was ok with it, probably didn't take me serious, how wrong she is going to be...
