Hilarious video of Hitman: Absolution causing a shitstorm among fans of the series

As much as I love the Hitman series, interviews from the developers leading up to the release of the newest in the series, Hitman: Absolution, have painted the game rather poorly to hardcore fans of the series. The game is expected to be much more linear, scripted, and more forgiving than previous games; all of which are antithetical to the core design of the previous titles.

I will not recount all that has been said leading thus far, as the release is imminent anyway, but a recent video is causing quite a bit of drama among fans of the series. It rather mockingly shows the assassination of a character through a series of quick time events, where Agent 47 reveals his face to an audience of people, and still walks out with the highest ranking possible.

Judge the game for yourself on release, but I revel in this sort of drama. Watch the video -- it's quite amusing.
