10 More Video Game Mistakes Left In To Troll You

4. Briefcase Mk II - Hitman 2

In the Hitman franchise there’s more than one way to kill a target. By which I mean, there’s about a hundred ways. But there is one way that the developers didn’t intend and that’s the mysterious homing briefcase.

Said homing briefcase resulted from a system that doesn’t allow said object to miss the target even if the target moves after you’ve pelted something at them.

Curiously, the briefcase moves slowly through the air. Like, weirdly slowly. So, no matter how your target moves you’ll watch the briefcase move gradually in their direction like a heat-seeking missile. While this was completely unintended, the devs decided to lean into the joke and troll you in Hitman 2 with the ICA Executive Briefcase Mk II which hilariously moved even slower. Like, really slow. But said briefcase would still get its man every time.

To the unsuspecting gamer this was hilarious, to those in the know it was a perfect and deserved troll when they realised they could walk faster than the briefcase would fly.
