Which game to buy?(Poll Requires Games to Vote)
If you really feel the need to learn the back story of Agent 47, look at getting Contracts.
It's like a revamped version of Codename 47 (Hitman 1) featuring that games best missions + new content (the mission in the arctic with the bomb was more like Splinter Cell, but still very good), with the bonus of the control system from Silent Assassin (which was less maddening) minus the annoying time-limited chloroform.

I played all hitman games so far and would recommend playing the old ones, too. Although the story isn't mind blowing, it has one and it's nice to see how the franchise evolved over the years :)
But that said: The first two games (Codename 47 and Silent Assasin) have a pretty brutal difficulty and especially the first game lacks the "perfect assasination"-gameplay and is thus far less enjoyable than the other parts.
If you like Blood Money - and I'm sure you will - I'd suggest to pick up Contracts - as it depicts the events of the first game, but with more satisfying gameplay.
Nevetherless Contracts is rather short,so you may not want to buy it at full price.
edit: too late D:

Once i try Codename 47 and it was brutal :D I still remember the mission in the jungle (it was the third one i think). I was droped and after 5 minutes i was dead. I didn't know where to go :D This was a long time ago. I'm not going to play it again, but i think i'm going to buy the others :)

I was stubborn enough to beat that game eventually, but jeah, I found it really dissatisfying that the player was forced to shoot his/her way through some levels.
I think there are better games today, that do a great job at providing a brutal difficultyk, that is still a satisfying experience (bell demons @ dark souls)
Well, Silent Assasin is hard, too, but you can at least beat it "silently" and depending on your difficulty setting( i think that's how it worked) you can save infinitely. Apart from that : I found the earlier missions so much harder D:

I've heard that Blood Money is the best Hitman game so far. My question is do i need to play previous 3 Hitman titles to enjoy Blood Money storywise? Or maybe no one plays Hitman games for the story :)
