HITMAN 2

This is completed in the singleplay/coop sniper mission of Hitman 2 Himmelstein - The Last Yardbirds. You can do both this and Peak Performance in coop; however, this will require some coordination, so I completed them in singleplayer. Simply follow along with the video to get every hidden kill possible. This will unlock the Silent Sniper achievement / trophy.

Here is a video guide with English commentary!

Nothing wrong with the video guide already posted, but if you're like me, you want to know exactly what the requirements are in case you can't perfectly mimic the guide. So, with that being said:

Silent Assassin is a rating you can receive for your performance on missions. In order to receive it, you must essentially play the level flawlessly. You must kill all your targets, not kill any civilians, and not have any alarms raised. This means you must hide most bodies where they cannot be found with the only exceptions being bodies which will fall where no one else is patrolling. You can have kills noticed as long as you are able to take out the witnesses as well before they can raise an alarm (as long as the witness in question is another target) - make sure you get the "Situation Contained" notification. Headshots are also not necessary but I went for them anyway - if they were still enough for a headshot, I felt much safer about taking them out. A lot of my witnessed kills came from missing a shot, drawing attention to that spot, or hitting guards successfully while they were in motion, but being too focused on their movements to notice nearby witnesses.

If you're struggling to find places to kill certain bodyguards or targets where they won't be found, I'll offer some suggestions below, but keep in mind that you can always lead them to certain spots with a series of shots. If the shot lands close enough to them, they will move to investigate it. Land a shot on railings, and they will walk right up to it. Hit an edge, and they will also stand right next to it, making for easy eliminations.

*The one guard on the roof can be shot almost anywhere. Since no one else patrols up there, no one will find him no matter where you kill him.
*Guards patrolling on the top level can be shot into the windows to hide the bodies. Note that this takes somewhat careful positioning, make sure they are dead-center in the window when you shoot them, otherwise they might hit the frame and just fall right where they're standing on the walkway. Note that you can shoot dead bodies to move them if you have a clear shot. You can't always pull it off but sometimes you can jostle a body through a window.
*DO NOT shoot the guards on the right side of the mansion off the ledges on the top or middle levels. Their bodies will not be hidden, they will fall onto the bottom level walkway, and if you aren't quick enough, their body will be found, ruining your SA rating.
*Using the statue is the best way to take out the labyrinth guard, as the landscaper will find his body almost anywhere else in the labyrinth. The falling statue hides the body. Shoot just above the statue's shadow to get him to the right spot, and make sure it's the guard and not the landscaper before taking your shot - again, civilian kills ruin your SA rating.
*To be safe, always shoot railings and pool edges to make sure the target is as close as possible, otherwise they may not go over/in all the way.

As a final, semi-unrelated note, you are very likely to hit your 1,000,000 point achievement when you get this, at least if you have a decent challenge multiplier. I had the full 3x multiplier and still couldn't crack 700k if I messed up even the very last kill after an otherwise flawless run. When I got my SA rating, my score was over 2 mil. I'm doubtful that it's even possible to unlock one of these achievements without the other - at least not unless you nab your SA rating on your first run with no extra challenge multiplier.
