Square Enix has been good to the PC. Funny thing because I didn't care one bit for them before they bought Eidos.

Good, I always planned on getting this for PC and I'm happy to hear that they are giving that version some extra love.

Another fine square enix / eidos pc version? This is a trend I can get behind.

Makes me a bit happier about my pre-order.

Everyone seems to forget that IOI is a PC first developer and Hitman is a PC franchise. It'd be (and still can be) very... strange if Absolution was a console port on PC.
You should just be grateful you even got the game.

Also am I the only one who thinks the bloom in this game is awful? Hopefully we will be able to adjust that / turn it off.

Probably animation frames.

Awhhhyeahhh! Love me some bokeh DoF. Tesselation is a bonus too
Hitman:Absolution has been set for a 11/20/2012 release, but I wonder if it will be released on that date or delayed, kinda like what happened to Batman Arkham City

Not surprised in the slightest. There PC ports have been fantastic lately. Hitman and Dishonored are my most anticipated games this year.

Increased gesture resolution
Huh??
Huh??
Animation frames, or something like that.

My guess is it's related to the performance capture they're doing for the game's cutscenes.
Edit: Yeah, animation frames makes more sense.

All the previous Hitman games were amazing on PC, looks like this will follow the trend

I gotta give Square-Enix credit, they are really treating the PC well as a publisher between Deus Ex last year and now Sleeping Dogs and Hitman this year

Man... and here I pre-ordered it on ps3. Any word if the pc will have proper gamepad controls?
All their last games sport DX11 effects on PC, I wonder what will happen to the next Tomb Raider.
Of course it will.

Sure. You can even use a pad for the sniper challenge on PC.
Btw, where is Derrick? We need to know what "True Fans" think of this news.

I think you can pre-order it for ~$45 on steam and you'll get a sniper challenge mini game instantly.

Sniper Challenge does!

what are you waiting for
Still not entirely sold on this game yet but it sure looks pretty. This will definitely be the version I get if I end up buying the game.
Good to see that Square is funding properly for PC development these days. Just Cause 2, Deus Ex Human Revolution, Sleeping Dogs , and now this seem to be really well done when it comes to PC-specific development. They get it!
