The most recent Hitman games are best in class. Three games worth of levels, rogue-like mode to string them together randomly with random objectives if doing the story again isn't your thing.

I'm excited to see what IO does with the James Bond franchise too. Even if it's just a reskinned Hitman, it'd be worth it.

I like the gunplay of Sniper Elite better, but I'm a big stealth fan and they're both fantastic stealth engines. I'd love to put MGS5 in that same category because I think the engine is there, but the actual world just never got filled in. After Ground Zeroes the scales of the bases in the main game just felt like a disappointment most of the time.
