So... I just got Hitman: Absolution for PS3. I have started playing a few missions, but I feel like I am missing something.

Do I feel like I am missing something because I haven't played the other Hitman games OR of my failure to understand the story due to some other reason?

Should I play the other Hitman games to understand the story?

    This isn't the type of question that has a yes or no answer for everyone. Try watching the film :)

  • You should play all other previous games of hitman if you care about story. (which I think you are). I would have just played it for fun. Anyway, I played all the games of hitman. :)

This answer may be different for everyone but I am going to say no. After you finish absolution, a lot of your questions will be answered [ I'm not going to provide those spoilers]. If you want some Hitman Lore, check out this very short video explaining some background to Agent 47

  • One of the important things that video doesn't mention is who Diana is. She was your handler at the agency, she has been around since the first game, and is probably the closest thing 47 has to a friend. Which makes what happens at the beginning of Absolution quite significant.
