  • Hopefully this doesn’t become another “who would/could play Bond” thread. I’m excited to read the positive reviews of Hitman 3; haven’t played any of the games but I might jump in to prepare for Bond.

  • Brilliant encyclopedia minds in this thread... amazing! I was hoping to piggyback off the work of @CommanderRoss :)) Good job @Tokoloshe2.
