Cheap, but we would skip: Hitman 2: Silent Assassin
Skip unless… $0.89 $8.99 at GOG

Skip unless you already want it. Hitman 2: Silent Assassin is $0.89 on GOG (90% off, a record low), but only 78% of its 1,871 Steam reviews are positive. Critics scored it 87 on Metacritic. Players are split, so it comes down to taste.
