Personal review

A great stealth game, who promotes heavily to be clean and swift over running and gunning everyone (even when its perfectly possible)
Also, it allows the player to be creative in both the art of killing and the art of infiltration, with an arsenal of weapons and an extensive use of furniture and disguises.
Last but not least, mission challenges plus contracts mode increase its replayability to almost infinite, displaying many unlockables to find and a lot of ways to finish each level.
