Same for me.

I might buy this if I could get the standard... pro doesn't sound like it's worth additional cash to me. $29 is great for a brand new game but I'm not 100% sold on it, I want some reviews.

If this coupon is good til next Friday like was mentioned earlier, then maybe I'll wait, lose the 10% preorder discount but still get 35% off after I get a chance to read some reviews and impressions.

If we pre-order Hitman Absolution, will we get the pre-purchase offer from Steam as well (Hitman Collection)? Or is that when purchased directly from Steam only?

Same question with the Sniper Challenge as well...If this has been answered already, I apologize, I am at work and in a hurry lol

No. Sniper challenge is exclusive to Steam and GameStop in North America.

FYI - for those interested in LEGO Lord of the Rings-

I picked this up from GMG but it doesn't appear to be available yet in the Steam store. It accepted my code and displays in my library as LEGO Lord of the Rings, but isn't available for download yet or have a store page (it does show the achievements, however).

Hope this gets added to the storefront soon!

Yea, there is a thread on the GMG forums about it. WB delayed the game for technical reasons, pretty shitty launch all around for every version of the game with the console version "demo" issue as well.

i'm still pretty annoyed I can't pay with my paypal or creditcards (GMG says they are registered with another account)

sending a support ticket does nothing

$29 for Hitman even w/o the Sniper Challenge seems good but I'm afraid it might disappoint or suck...

Reiterating DeadlyToothpick's question, does the GMG version include the Hitman Collection. Apparently if you preorder Hitman Absolution off Steam you'll get...

Sniper Challenge
+
"Pre-purchase now and get the following:

Receive and play The Hitman Collection immediately! The Hitman Collection includes:

Hitman: Codename 47
Hitman 2: Silent Assassin
Hitman: Blood Money"

If the GMG version includes the three older Hitman games then it's all gravy, but if it doesn't then do you guys think ~$15 is worth it for the three Hitman games?

Steam has had a Hitman 3-pack (47, 2, Blood Money) for ~$6.25 a few times.

Thanks OP. Got hitman. Now I just need a wired controller to play it with.

I see you have a XBL account listed w/ your CAG account here.
Do you have a USB X360 controller from your XB360?
If yes - you can plug that into your PC!

EDIT:
Win 7 should recognize your X360 Controller, once you plug it in.
Many PC games, they often do support the X360 controller - since that is the standard controller here.
Just look at a PC game's system requirements - and see if the X360 controller is suggested or recommended.
Hitman: Absolution PC on its Steam page does say it supports controllers, so I'd bet X360 controller is supported here.

EDIT:
Hitman: Absolution PC manual is already up on Steam.

They really should get Hitman: Contracts up on Steam, if they can ever get rid of the licensing issue w/ Clutch over the song "Immortal" that's in the game.
Maybe if they can't get a license renewal w/ Clutch, maybe they should just remove the song or something? [shrug]

I preordered hitman a few months ago from these guys. Is the sniper challenge available to be played now if at all?

Pretty good FPS, nothing like the original though. There are a few interesting mechanics, graphics are good, gameplay is solid. Worth 7 bucks.

I have only tried single player though, coop is supposed to be a blast.

I managed to snag (download) Contracts on a Gamefly sale before they got the memo. =) Remove a song from a game? Who would do that? SEGA

Syndicate was $6 on GG back in August. I think $5 on Amazon in the near past.

Isnt' Viking in an upcoming OMG-Tony-Pack?
