Hitman has always been about variety and planning, and Hitman Absolution is no different. The demo was really short, but like the series that preceded it, the contract on display offered a great variety of options for how you go about killing your target.
The first option offered at the demo was to make a car bomb to kill the contract; the second was to follow him into an alley and garotte him; the third was to enter a nearby building and snipe him; the fourth was to pretend to be a drug dealer and lure him into an alley; the fifth was to collect poison fugu and poison his food; and the last advertised option is to incite a riot and kill him in the confusion. I'm sure there are other ways to kill him as well, but the point was that the options were there.
Hitman Absolution is a well-made game that is a load of fun even in pre-beta, but it's also precisely what you'd expect from a Hitman game, so if you're a fan of the series, you're in for a treat.
