--- Comment #3 from bobgoat bobgoat37@yahoo.com 2008-06-26 16:42:05 --- It did used to work. I'm pretty sure it was 1.0-rc1 or 1.0-rc2 and that it definitely wasn't working by rc3. I'll try testing some of those versions and post on it.
Yes there is a demo which you can download. Here's a link to it off of fileshack (you need to register though): http://fileshack.com/file.x/603/Hitman:+Codename+47+Demo
I'll try downloading it myself and see if it behaves the same for me as in the retail version.
