Velvet Assassin 2009 Game By Replay Studios.....

Of all the game names in all the land, Velvet Assassin is one of the most bizarre I've heard. Formerly known as Sabotage, the folks at Gamecock decided to change the name upon hearing that Pandemic's stealth-action game was going by the name of Saboteur. In fear of destroying the minds of consumers everywhere, they settled on Velvet Assassin. While you do play a stealthy killer, your name isn't Velvet, nor do you dawn any velvety garb. At least not in the level that I was shown during the demo Gaming Of Velvet Assassin. 

There was one portion of Velvet Assassin, however, where the soft and silky substance worn by so many pimps the world over made its way into the gameplay. As anyone who has been following our coverage knows, Velvet Assassin is similar to Splinter Cell in several ways. First, you won't be running in guns blazing. Velvet is all about going the stealthy route, sneaking up behind your prey and then using one of the more than 50 execution moves on them. While there are gun fights, just like in Splinter Cell, you won't (or at least, you shouldn't) find yourself up against insurmountable odds while ducking behind pieces of cover and blindfiring over it. Any baddies that you manage to bag will need to be dragged into the darkness to remain unseen.
