18 Best Video Game Moments Of 2016 (So Far)

17. Experimenting With The Brilliantly Dumb A.I. - Hitman

Sorry, Bethesda, but you don't have the monopoly on 'big, crazy, AI-fuelled games' anymore. Enter the revised and thoroughly spruced up Hitman, as although IO Interactive's titles have always been playgrounds for experimentation, the 2016 iteration has the best mix of comedy and violence yet.

Purpose-built to say the stupidest things at the best time or wander into just the right spot for a random object to fall on them (or be bounced off the back of their heads), kills in Hitman are just hilariously brilliant.

Check the above video for some of the best ways you can create your own moments by simply dictating your own comedic timing, and as for my own favourite, I'm taking "Throwing a fire axe across a room into a dude's face".

That just never gets old.
