This time you're going to die Makimura

This week's Internet game of the week features Hitstick 2.  It is an intense shooter that delivers a handful of levels, four popular weapons, and a handful of killing.  The developers left much of the action to the player, so you can either go in with guns blazing or you can take foes down with stealth.  The option is yours.

You assume the roll of an unidentified assassin who is sent to take out a Japanese high profile target named Shiba Makimura.  The objective is simple.  You have to kill Makimura and as many of his bodyguards as possible.  If you fail, then the price is your life.

The music has a nice soft beat with some interesting spoken word.  "What do they pay you for murdering me?"  Not to mention, the guns shoot as accurately as possible for a flash game in comparison to the real weapon.  Not that I've ever assassinated anyone... Anyways.

If you have a few minutes to kill or just want a quick breather from work, then Hitstick 2 is a quick fix for anyone.  Be aware, you'll find yourself playing through this gem multiple times.
