Hitman
Hitman is a stealth video game series developed by Eidos Interactive and Square Enix, which was previously released by the Danish developer IO Interactive. The games revolve around Agent 47, a clone designed to be the ultimate assassin, with no human feelings at all, apparently. Enlisted by the fictitious International Contract Firm as a contract killer, 47 is sent to different locations around the world to silently kill targets. 1)
David Bateson
“Bateson provided the voice of Agent 47 in the Hitman game series, and in every entry in the series until the fifth game, Hitman: Absolution, when he told a Hitman fan forum member that “No one from IO Interactive answers my calls, e-mails or SMS.” Bateson would later officially announce on his personal website that he was “unceremoniously dropped from the franchise”. Bateson did eventually return as the voice of Agent 47 in Hitman: Absolution. He remains the voice actor till this date as Agent 47. 2)
47's barcode tattoo contains his birthdate
640509-040147 is his barcode. On September 5, 1964, he was created. “640509”, but backwards, reflects that. He was part of the fourth set of clones, the batch's first clone, and he was the 47th created clone, hence '040147.'
