Do I need to play 1 or 2 to play this one? I've googled it and some people say that you should play them all in order and others say that this one is a completely new story. I really want to get it but didn't play the first one and thought the second was pretty bad so never finished it.
This is a completely new story. There may be some allusions to previous games but the story is definitely not a direct sequel.
Sweet! I'll maybe get it this week then. Or possibly for Christmas with Hitman. The reviews are really encouraging considering I thought the second one was pretty bad.
