I thought it was the page about Hitman 5.

Any reason why the Triple pack is so merrily advertised at the top of the page, even BEFORE the gameplay?

thread_title: Hitman 5

message: Alright, now I believe that the level Curtains Down in Blood Money comes before the level Hunter and Hunted in Contracts, but there's no official proof of this and every site I go to for the Hitman timeline says that is correct (given they're all forums for some reason). It wouldn't be hard to draw that conclusion if you've played the games and take into account that the levels in Blood Money are spread out over a 2 year period. If someone can find an offial timeline that'd be great for this predicament I'm having. Blindsnyper (talk) 06:05, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: hitman 5- assassins creed

message: I went through and made some edits to the presentation.  There was a lot of information of a very subjective nature throughout this page.  That has all been removed.  Speculative information is gone as well and also the comparisons to other games.  (While this may be true of the game, comparing this as being similar to Max Payne in gameplay is quite subjective.)
Wiki isn't the place for opinions or speculation and these have all been removed. TotalTommyTerror 18:05, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I find the changes to the article to be too severe. Many of the good descriptions have been stripped. Certain changes were necessary, but many were not. I won't change anything, but I would support anyone who would. Avengerx 18:36, 5 December 2005 (UTC)

text: I think comparisons to other games of the same genre (such as Thief) can be useful to the reader, albiet not necessary. You should note that the article wasn't comparing Max Payne's gameplay style, but it's 3rd-person control scheme to Codename 47's, which are indeed extremely similar and non-subjective. I've re-included a few things I thought were important for the article which are unrelated to the removed comparisons. – Quoth 00:23, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Comparisons like that belong in a "review" of the game, not in an info page about it.  TotalTommyTerror 14:22, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

text: Particulary as this game was released before the first Max Payne... I was thinking the description of 47 should be moved further up the article, as there are several references in the game descriptions that don't make sense unless you know 47's history. 81.99.250.29 22:17, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Diana 

message: In Hitman: Codename 47 directory I've found a file named "resources.xml" (C:\Hitman - Codename 47\Setup\Locale\language-English.zip). There are all the game dialogues, mission briefings and all the game's text. In that file, I've found some really weird sentences, that aren't involved in the game, or I couldn't find them anywhere in the game... They are:
* (Possibly in "The Setup" mission) "Freeze - let me see some ID! Real slow now!"
* (Possibly in "The Setup" mission) "Hey - you there. Stand still! Who are you?"
* (Possibly in "The Setup" mission) "Stop! Police - identify yourself!"
* (Possibly in "The Setup" mission) "Tango 6 - 3 Delta - 1 Yankee. Proceed with caution. Suspect is armed and dangerous!" (maybe a talk between SWAT members)
* (Possibly in "Meet Your Brother" mission) "You - along with your brothers - are my true children. Now rid me of that rambunctious renegade!" (maybe a talk between Ort. Meyer and Mr. 48 clones)
There are many other sentences too, but I'm most worried about these mission descriptions in laptop:
* (Possibly at the end of the game) "Your mission is over. Surrender your self to the police and await further instructions. We will contact you. Diana"
* (Possibly at the end of the game) "ABORT - ABORT - ABORT RETURN TO BASE IMPENDING DANGER THE AGENCY WILL DISAVOW YOU RETURN IMMEDIATELY"
* (Possibly at the end of the game) "ABORT - ABORT - ABORT SEVERE DANGER DO NOT ATTEMPT FURTHER ADVANCES THIS IS AN ORDER"
Everybody knows that when 47 kills Ort. Meyer, the game is over, and there's no after mission description in laptop. What are those sentences?
Write everything in the world you know about this sentences, please! I'm in turmoil for this problem since 2002! I WILL AWARD THE USER THAT HELPS ME SOLVING THIS PROBLEM! --Aeternus 17:24, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Weapon list 

message: The film needs to be merged into this page. There should be a "Film" section on this page, detailing what relevant information about the film there is. Why? First, the film has not been green-lit, if you go HERE, at the bottom you will see where it states that the "studio advised IGN that the film has not been green-lit". Since Wiki is not a crystal ball, we cannot assume that it will be green-lit, thus it does not warrant its own page. Secondly, there isn't even a lead cast. There are conflicting reports that Olyphant replaced Diesel, and Olyphant has stated otherwise. Also, please be registered if you are going to vote, it becomes difficult to make sure one user isn't signing on to multiple IP addresses. Thank you. Bignole 16:40, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merge Film 

message: In Blood Money, at one point you can intentionally drop weights (like a bench-press weights-bar) on one victim while he's working out. Would this count as a melee weapon?, or would it be more along the lines of 'turn on the gas and wait for an explosion'-type of weapon? 
(I guess I'm asking if a Melee weapon: is handheld and portable? : or a random object that's used as a weapon.) JimmmyThePiep 02:12, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I think a melee weapon is something you use to attack someone, most probably in a fight. If you pick up the weight and hit someone with it that would be using it as a weapon. The man can accidentaly drop the weight and kill himself. 47 only facilitates this "accident". So i think in this case the weight is not a weapon because it was not really intended to be a weapon, it's an accident. Of course it's all a matter of definition.. Ozkaplan 11:13, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Is this a melee weapon? 

message: "In Hitman 2, excepting the final mission, the game can be completed using only two bullets (one in the St. Petersburg Stakeout level and another in the Motorcade Interception level. In the Kirov Park Meeting level it is possible to not have to use the sniper rifle by planting car bombs.)" - Wrong. You do not need to shoot a bullet in St. Petersburg. You can sneak into the meeting and garrote the target. But you DO need to use a bullet for breaking a window on a level I can't remember..."Night Shift" or something like that. 
In the Kirov Park Meeting mission it is possible to cut the throat of both generals with one cut if you can do this while they are hugging. That is better cause the bombs kill serveral other NPC and the work is not "clean" enough then. Motorcade Interception requires a bullet, altough there were some obscure instructions about killing the target by using the fire axe in the moment when his jeep enters the city gate.

thread_title:  Wrong statements about the usage of projectile weaponry. 

message: It is a common misunderstanding that 47 has 47 chromosomes. On the last level of C:47 Ort-meyer says "the 47 chromosomes" by which he probably means that the chromosomes of the project 47(since as a clone he was a "project"). The information is incorrect. We have no canonized information about the number of his chromosomes so I will change the article accordingly. Ubox 20:04, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

message: Unlike the game wherein the hitmen are all clones, the Organization instead recruits orphans and trains them from an early age.
The only clone the ICA employs in the game is agent 47. There is no saying about other clones and besides he is the only surviving clone in the world and the only "perfect" one. It doesn't employ only clones... Who is writing this nonesense?? I have seen this in other articles about Hitman and it bothers me very much. MihaS (talk) 23:02, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Comparison between Agent 47 and Assassins creed characters 

message: Just happened to watch Cowboy Bebop episode 20 just now, and there seems maybe an odd coincidence or maybe there is actually a connection (given Hitman came out around a year or two after Bebop). In that episode the mad assassin Pierrot le Fou is an experimental test subject cloned and genetically engineered and trained to be an expert assassin, who is referred to as "Experimental Sample 46 - Codename Tonpu" (not sure about the last word). It just made me wonder if this was a deliberate reference, but I couldn't immediately find anything online, so maybe not. --86.150.106.202 (talk) 22:02, 24 May 2015 (UTC)
