Sponsored: Hitman Sniper Challenge October winners revealed ahead of Grand Prize final

The results are in for October’s sharp-shooting Hitman Sniper Challenge league table toppers. There’s added tension this month because these are the final winners who will be entered into the Grand Prize showdown this Friday at the Park Plaza hotel, the venue for this year’s Golden Joystick Awards, which takes place later in the day.

The final trio of headshot heroes is:

  • PS3 Winner: Jdavis1964 (6,979,178)
  • Xbox 360 Winner: michaelyates1964 (6,674,697)
  • PC Winner: DarksDaemon (6,440,866)

Each of them wins a prize bundle which includes an iPad, Sennheiser headphones, and some desirable Hitman paraphernalia. As Grand Prize finalists they’re also in with a chance of winning a Golden Joystick, a chance to meet voice of Agent 47 David Bateson, and having their face scanned and put into Hitman: Absolution.

The skills of October’s Second and Third place high performers are also recognised with prizes in the shape of a stubby Agent 47 figurine each. The runners-up are as follows:

  • PS3 Second: Hobovitch (6,470,812)
  • PS3 Third: kowbi7 (4,780,132)
  • Xbox 360 Second: ShaziraThalia (6,430,429)
  • Xbox 360 Third: lazycritic (5,943,402)
  • PC Second: Gentleman_ (2,500,650)
  • PC Third: Kain_666 (2,416,583)

Well done to all the winners and good luck to all the finalists fighting it out for the Grand Prize.

Even after the Grand Prize has been claimed there’s still going to be plenty to play for (i.e. more prizes) until Hitman: Absolution is released on 20 November. So keep sniping.

I don't have the energy to really hate anything properly. Most things I think are OK or inoffensively average. I do love quite a lot of stuff as well, though.
