20 Most Replayable Video Game Moments Of The 2000s

14. Hitman: Blood Money (2006) - Whacking Vinnie Sinistra

In a series whose heyday was throughout the 2000s, it's hard to pick out which one of its wonderful kills is most worthy playing over and over again. In the end, the 'New Life' mission in Blood Money, tasking you with taking out mob rat Vinnie Sinistra, wins it. That may be something to do with the fact that we've all watched so many mobster film that we've been brainwashed into hating any wiseguy who goes into the Witness Protection Program. But there's more to it than that. The idyllic American suburbia setting of the level and the fact that your target's kid is having a birthday party give the whole mission an lovely air of menace. Of course there's a veritable variety of ways you can pull off the hit - and all of them seem almost satirical in the way they violate the suburban American dream. The bored housewife, the hired clown for the kid's party, and the all-American grill can all play a role in your hit, making A New Life easy to come back to.
