I'd have expected an announcement by now about a new title. Blood Money was a brilliant game and really brought things back on track again after the cluster *bleep* disaster of a game that Contracts was, but now it seems the whole franchise is dead in the water. Does anyone know of Eidos and IO producing a 5th title?

I was reading on a forum a while back that there was originally a new game schedualed for late 2009 but two of the main people in the project went their seperate ways and it got put on the back burner.

I think it might be this forum: http://www.hitmanforum.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=40135 There's a few useful links that pop up in there, but to cut a long story short - 2010 at the earliest for the release of a new hitman game.

Cheers Hard, had a look round tonight and came across this. I guess it could be just fans blowing wind up each others' arses but it seems promising.
