Description :Hitman: Contracts is the third game in the Hitman series by Eidos Interactive and Io Interactive.
You again take on the role of 47, the famous hitman of the past two games. The story opens with 47 being shot, and he is lying on the floor, dying. The whole game takes place in "flashbacks", and the missions you complete are missions that 47 has "already done", and he is reminsicing about them on his death bed. The beginning level opens up in the insane asylum where you ended the first game. People who finished the first game will immediately recognize it, but you do not need any past experience to enjoy the game or story.
You will be tasked with killing various targets or completing objectives, and you have a variety of ways to do so.
Hitman can be played as stealthily or as aggressively as you want. The game awards sneaky players with the "Silent Assassin" ranking, which gives you a special weapon upon completion. To do this, you must not fire your weapon at anybody except the target, and even then, you can only kill the target with one shot. You cannot kill anybody else, unless they are specific targets.
Hitman: Contracts rewards those who are up to the challenge.

Trivia :- A large majority of the levels in Hitman:Contracts are simply remakes of the levels from the original Hitman Codename 47 game. Almost all of the major missions from the original game have been remade in Contracts, the only major levels that weren't remade were the Columbia mission where you assassinate Pablo Ochoa, and the deathmatch-style final confrontation in the Asylum (both of these levels were very action-oriented, and were probably deemed inappropriate given the Hitman series new focus on more crafty, less rambo-ish gameplay).

Second chance:
When you are killed, the screen will turn black and white briefly. Try to shoot four people in the head while this is happening to resume playing with barely any health.
All weapons in training level:
Start the training level, then enable the end level code. You will complete it with a "Silent Assassin" rank. Choose the training level again, and all the weapons in the game will be unlocked in the weapons storage area. This also will unlock the Cardboard Tube weapon.
Hint: Asylum Aftermath: Future targets in tubes:
After you have completed the game and also collected Orthmeyer's Keycard from The Wang Fou Incident mission, go to the Asylum Aftermath mission. Proceed as normal until you reach the hallway with the mirror-window going along the right wall. Proceed into the next room, go down the short staircase, then go through the double doors. You should be in a room with cryo -tubes of clones inside. Go further into the next room. Labeled on each of the tubes are names of some targets that will be found in later levels (except for one, Otto Ort-Meyer). They also all look the same.
Hint: Asylum Aftermath: Enforcer sniper rifle:
Go along your normal route all the way to the end of the level. Do not go outside. When you get paced the for SWATs, turn left and go through the door. Go up the stairs and kill the SWAT. There is a cabinet with glass doors. Open it and get the sniper rifle. Finish the level and you will have unlocked the Enforcer sniper rifle.
Hint: Asylum Aftermath: Mini-gun:
Get a guard suit and take the elevator up to the mansion in The Wang Fou Incident mission. Get the key card (this will also get you the Desert Eagle). As soon as you complete the mission, go to the Asylum Aftermath mission. Go through the first set of double doors and there will be a red light in the hallway. Look to your right and there will be glass doors that you cannot break. This is where your key card is used to open up the doors. Kill the man and pick up the gun. You will walk very slow, and it is a mini gun. To unlock it at the gun selection screen, kill everyone in your way and escape while having the mini gun in your possession.
Hint: Asylum Aftermath: Gold Desert Eagle dual guns:
If you have the card from The Wang Fou Incident mission, go through your regular route until you get to a place where you see double doors in front of you or if you look to the right you see a man and a door down by the stairs. Go down by the stairs and open up the door with the card obtained from The Wang Fou Incident mission. The Gold Desert Eagles will be directly in front of you. Pick them up and finish the mission. When you go to the mission selection screen, you will find two Desert Eagle Magnum guns.
Hint: The Meat King's Party: Meat hook death:
In order for this to work, you must knock out the target you want to hang and not kill him. If you are out of Syringes, then use the pistol whip. Drag the target to the platform by the hook controls and stop the rail when an empty hook is in front of you. Get on the platform along with the dragged body. Make sure you are still dragging him and select "Hang On Meat Hook". Check the map and you will still see him as alive. If you want to hide the body, go to the derail controls on the northeast side of your position (the start/stop controls). After starting the rail again, move over to the derail controls and select "Derail". From that point on, all the bodies will come in from the main, spin, and move over to a hidden position for derailing. At that point, the body should be hidden.
Hint: The Seafood Massacre: Phantom chef:
Once the mission starts, run to the restaurant's basement where you cut the gas off. Grab the restaurant outfit and quickly run to kill the Red Dragon Negotiator. Dump him in the sewer, grab his amulet, and climb out. Next, head back to the basement. The guards will not know that you are not a restaurant employee. Cut the gas. Hide in the room where you got the outfit from and wait for the chef to go over to the gas thing. Quickly, yet quietly, exit the room and get behind the Chef. Note: Make sure you have the syringe out before you walk out the room. Just when he turns his head and spots you, stab him with the syringe. If done correctly, he should stand up and slowly walk away, leaving you in the motion as if you stabbed him. He will walk out the door, and get knocked out there.
Hint: Traditions Of The Trade: Walk around hotel with sniper rifle:
Normally, it is impossible to get a sniper rifle into a hotel without getting it taken away. However, there is a simple way to avoid this. After you show the guard your conference ID, walk up to the metal detector and stop directly in front of it. Then, drop the suitcase. Walk through the metal detector, then turn around and pick up the suitcase. It will not set off the detector, and you will be able to walk around with it. Note: Do the same trick to get past the other metal detectors.
If you start the level with the W200 Sniper Rifle, you can easily bring it inside. The first way is to drop the case before you enter the hotel, then look on your map for a small room with two cops in it. In that room is a switch to shut off metal detectors. Simply go back outside and collect your items. The second way is to dump all your items except the sniper case with the W2000 in it. Walk through casual, and you should be able to get in without any problems. A third way (not recommended) can be done if you are very skilled with a sniper rifle. Aim for the furthest cop, then quickly hit the other. Note: It takes a while to reload.
Hint: Traditions Of The Trade: Easy completion:
Instead of going through the trouble of getting the rose box when you first enter the back room, notice the bottle of whiskey. Assuming you have some type of poison, you can simply kill off one of the targets by using it. To get to the other target, you must go to the floor that his room is on. If you go to the room next to his (to the left if you are facing the door) and walk out onto the balcony, you will see one of his guards come out occasionally on patrol. When he does, a woman on a balcony past his will walk out and have a smoke. Once they both there, return to their rooms. You can jump to the balcony belonging to the target. Using stealth, you can open the door then walk up behind the guard and kill him using the fiber wire. After this is done, pick up his weapon and a silenced pistol. Grab the pistol and creep into the bathroom to eliminate the second target. Then, drop the pistol as to not set off any metal detectors that you need pass to reach to the X-ray room Then, return to the third floor, to the half where your room is located. If you open one door, you can step out onto the roof. Creep across the roof, making sure the guard in the pool below cannot see you, and sneak in through a window. Silently eliminate the guard and creep into the X-ray room. Get the bomb and leave by the way that you came from. Calmly walk downstairs and leave the hotel This will only work if you have killed the two Bosses to acquire the X-ray room key. Also, bring the briefcase from Room 202. Without this, you will be shot by the guards.
Hint: Bullet time:
When you die and can shoot people in slow motion, enable the "God mode" code. You will be in bullet time until you headshoot four people.
