Yeah still not working, I own hitman 1 and 2 but the only thing the access is detecting I have is the expansion season pass for 2. ah well.
Edit: gah terrible top of page apologies
I wish there was a way to check my entire purchase history on Xbox. I have a suspicion it might be due to the fact that I share my console with another Xbox in the house and maybe it was purchased on that profile and I only have shared access to it? Gah so confusing. There’s no way to check on which profile I actually bought it
Edit: ok this might be it, I bought hitman 1 complete season 1 on this profile, but as far as I can tell I didn’t buy hitman 2 on this profile, but the one I used to use on my other old Xbox. But I bought the season pass for 2 on this profile, and that’s working. Which must be what’s causing the issues, even tho I can’t get access to hitman 1 either so I’m assuming it’s the wrong edition or something. Ah well. That’s what I get for losing track of where I bought what and for Microsoft having such a good share system that I forget where I even bought games because I still have access to them on both consoles

Huh. This was a cool first for me in a hitman game in the British mansion level.
Target very kindly offed herself after I solved the case. She went outside, climbed the ledge and jumped. 47 just walked out and left.

Wait she does?
I pushed her cos I thought she was just idly leaning on the ledge so I went for it haha.
there's apparently a specific bit of information relating to her dead brother (not the currently murdered brother) that you have to present to her
but i don't actually know where it is
I can explain.
So you fine the item that opens the hidden passages and go into the one on the second floor of the library. Get the item inside and present that info to the target as the murder solution. Then as a reward ask for the file, so don’t steal it beforehand. Do this and watch what happens.
I own Hitman 2 on disc and to get the base levels in 3 I had to redeem the free starter pack for Hitman 2, then go through the store page in Hitman 2 to get the pass for free (this is all on XB).
Hitman 1 isn't free for me yet in spite having the legacy levels in 2, I'm re-downloading 1 to make sure everything is square.
I love that hitman only makes sense if it’s a parallel universe where everyone has face and hair blindness

I choose to believe that 47 is actually really good at disguises and the game only portrays him the same to help us, the players, have an easier time identifying him.

Or it’s just an entire universe humouring him Truman show style. Which would explain whey everyone just goes with it when he does terrible dialogue impressions
There's one thing that I think IO could have done to make the presentation for these games better
And that's get actual people from the regions you're in to do the voice acting
The fact that everyone just talks 'Merican or Bri'ish even though you're in Italy, France, Morocco, or Japan is just... it's just weird
I would even accept bad regional accents, honestly
The thing is there’s got to be plenty of voice actors capable of doing this genuinely, like is it difficult to find a voice actor with a genuine Arabic accent for the Dubai sections? I’m pretty sure there is actually Arabic accents because the sheik has one, unless I’m misremembering. It’s more distracting because there are some accents and then it’ll go back to everyone sounding English, the inconsistency makes it stand out

The H1 thing is a known issue, they say they have a fix but they have to wait for Microsoft to help with it
Doing fake accents is increasingly seen as racist, so I understand why they avoid it. They do hire actors with authentic accents when they can - see Mumbai and Colombia.

My Ingram takedown was some of the most Bugs Bunny shit I've ever done in this franchise
After failing to take the initiative the first time because I was waiting to see how things played out, I reloaded and quickly walked out to the deck myself, and after looking around for what to do I saw the rail.
The second I think Ingram isn't looking I take the prompt and 47 then bends down to noisily tamper with it, then after a few seconds of nothing new happening I spot the lean prompt and Ingram comically stops his spiel to join me with a new spiel he doesn't get to finish.

I'll say this about the Berlin level: it's a shame you can't stealth kill in the middle of a crowd. Imagine the dance floor, bass too loud to hear anything, and you just quietly sidle up to someone, pop two silenced shots into their lungs and quickly walk away, leaving everyone to think the dude what just collapsed must've taken some bad ex
okay how does the import stuff work if I'm moving over to Xbox, where I haven't played these games before
if I buy the first two games does it just carry over into 3 no problem?
The Import function isn't perfect, but if you're saying that you played 1 and/or 2 on PC and are now planning to play on XBox, I believe the order of operations would be:
1. Buy and install Hitman 3
2. Boot it up and disregard the initial prompt for Carryover
3. Tab over to the Hitman 3 Store section with the various "Access Passes" for Hitman 1&2; purchase those you want.
4. Return to the initial menu screen, select the Carryover box.
5. During Carryover you'll get to choose the Import Destination, and you just have to select your Xbox account.
If you're goal is just importing unlocks, rather than destinations & unlocks, you may not need to re-purchase 1&2.
The actual carryover website is just for unlocks and progression stuff. If you never played on that platform, you don't need to do it, just buy the access passes.
Note: right now the Hitman 2 Expansion Pass is on sale for $10 on the Xbox store while the Access Pass for the same content is $40. Just buy the hitman 2 version, it will unlock the access pass for free and save you $30

Berlin is very good from top to bottom
following a guy through a rave crowd who's a shark but you're a much, much bigger one is so cool
I'm getting hard crashes after every mission. The dubai one eventually worked but can't get passed the mansion at all, plus stuff that has nothing to do with being online is locked unless you have connection. Cant believe that process has survived all 3 games.

more Berlin
dressing up as the club owner is so dang cool! You get to call 5 of the agents directly to you, but they know you're 47, but you know they know you're 47
then you get to flip the table, literally, on the main guy and have a full shootout with him and his crew in the owner's office
my new mission is to figure out how to take down all 11 agents before they evacuate. I'm thinking, explosives
I played through dubai and then like a dumbass decided to just spend a bunch of time in paris and sapienza again
Finally got around to doing some silent assassin suit only runs! I always thought those seemed sorta lame because the whole fun to me was doing big dramatic accidents using goofy disguises, but it was actually really fun to figure out the route to pulling it off in sapienza
I started off in the funeral home, grabbed the dongle and keycard, used the apartment building roof to climb into the kitchen, drew away enough cooks to poison the spaghetti with emetic, snuck out and rung the bell, fiber-wired silvio while he puked, went down to the lab and killed the virus, then killed francesca when she came down to check on it
Good times!
Anyway now I'm just going through all the campaigns now to build up to actually playing the hitman 3 maps

47, knows the importance of both being coordinated and also potassium
I'm waiting for the Steam release, so haven't really followed news on 3 too much yet, but had a few questions:
1. Did all the content from the first two games port over? I know initially the Christmas level from H1 was not in H2, and then they only added it temporarily before finally adding it permanently a year later. Also was wondering if they kept the sniper maps and that multiplayer mode from H2. I also remember a bunch of Escalations never crossed over, but don't care as much about those as long as the fun ones made it.
2. Are they still being dumb about Elusive Targets or have they finally come to their senses and started adding the content to the game permanently instead of the dumb time-limited + attempt-limited thing they were doing before?
3. Did they nerf any of the really powerful items you could unlock later in H2 like the detonating phone and such?
4. I haven't seen it anywhere, so I'm guessing no dual-wielding Silverballers? I figured that would return in this one like the sniper case returned in H2.
5. What are the new features like H2 adding the tall grass and working mirrors?

Thanks for your time.
1. I'm not sure if EVERYTHING ported over, especially considering I have no clue what Christmas level you're talking about, but all Destinations are present, including all Sniper levels.
2. I'm not sure we know how they're doing Elusive Targets, or if they are. I don't think any previous Elusive Targets carried over as supplemental content.
3. I don't know that anything was nerfed, but I think I saw mention that some items were removed altogether. Which, uh, I guess that's an Extreme Nerf.
4. Dunno.
5. I haven't noticed any new mechanics, unless you count scanning things with the Phone. Presumably they spent more time getting the VR mode working based on existing functions.
The Christmas level was fun. It’s set in Paris, with you against the Home Alone robbers. Santa is also teleporting around the level, if you wanted a new suit or revenge for not getting that Nintendo you asked for.

The Electrocution Phone from the Bank level mastery has been removed, which is fair because it completely broke elusive targets as it was as close to a 100% thing as you can get in hitman
i never touched the hitman 2 dlc so i'm excited to get around to that
is Patient Zero fun? that's another big piece of extra content i never played, is it worth going through or is it more of an "eh if you've played everything else and you're bored then why not"

The finale is really cool, and there's a neat if gimmicky sniper mission, the other two are alright from what I've seen.

1. almost. The holiday missions, Hokkaido Snow Festival and Holiday Hoarders are not, but every other mission is. H1 escalations aren't in either, but I'm assuming they're coming. Ghost Mode is out, Sniper Assassin (with co-op) is in.
2. No one knows. (also while time-limited was annoying having only one attempt was cool tbh)
3. As said previously, Electrocution Phone was just removed, nothing else was nerfed afaik. However, there was at least 1 buff, the unlockable sniper rifle from the Siberia Sniper Assassin mode mission, the Druzhina 34 ICA Arctic, got infinite wall piercing, which is probably a bug but it is hilarious.
4. No
5. The main new "mechanics" is the more complicated objectives and less "hand-holding," if you want to call it that. It didn't really add a ton of new features.
EDIT: Just checked in game, most if not all the H1 escalations are in, my bad
