New topic so it gets more attention.


NEW PETITION REGARDING THE GAMES ONLY!!!
http://www.petitiono...J/petition.html

This applies to the games only, since Vin Diesel in the movie is probably a losing battle.

Please sign with your REAL NAME.  This will add a lot more weight to the petition.  There's a button to check whether or not you're a HitmanForum member-- so put your REAL NAME and then check that.

--Agent 17


I must requote this part:

This applies to the games only, since Vin Diesel in the movie is probably a losing battle.

Only talk about the games, (VD will be taking David Bateson's place, and we will see his in-game likeness) not the movies please.

Please sign with your REAL NAME.


Please just use your real name.

Thank you Agent 17.

I put links to both the petitions (although I think Diablo's is a little hopeless) on the main page news article-- that might give them a little more exposure.

I signed it. Here is what I wrote:

I don't want Vin Diesel to have anything at all to do with Hitman. Vin Diesel will butcher it and soil the good Hitman name. Please IO Interactive and Eidos, I am begging you,, Please keep David Bateson as the voice for 47. And please keep 47's regular look.

Yeah. If these petitions take off, maybe ampburner, as the head of the forum, will send a letter to appropriate Eidos/IOI personnel with a link to the petition, and it will get some attention.

Hopefully, they won't have already cut a deal with Tigon or whatever the hell they are about Vin Diesel in the game, by then.

I just signed and got number 20. Only God knows if they'll pay attention to us. They have before, but I'm still going to hope to God that they listen to our pleas.

#25 as of now.

About half of the signatures are from people who aren't HF members... so they're either forum guests, or friends of people here, or I don't know what, but this is good. If we get a lot of signatures from both forum members and non-forum members, it shows that the general public, as well as the solid "Hitman" fan base, is against these changes, and that the petition isn't just coming from a little niche group.
