I will actually wet myself if there is a new one. Seriously, not a dry undie in sight. I have so much respect for the theif series.

Please god PLEASE dont let it be deployed on console - PLEASE. It would then suck as we all know.
 
well there is plenty on the web about a new one. I remember the cradle level in Thief 3 - it complely scared the living be-jesus out of me.
 
If I remember correctly, Thief 3 was also deployed on console and suffered for it.

And I am sure the developers will say in an interview "well we've learnt from those mistakes" only for us all to find that it's become a thief version of assassin's creed with terrible controls and no mouse support :D and Garrett will have magic, and shields and health that replenishes automatically, and there will be a love interest with a big boobed tree woman.

But it'll have multilayer with dedicated server support.

and it'll use Games For Windows Live.

You just wait;)

possibly the most ironically funny thing ive read all day. thanks ;-)
 
Not much, but it will almost certainly be a console title too.

Thief 3 was pretty good imo. Remember playing Thief 1 and 2 when I was very young- always creeped me out!

Need to play the Thief series, especially when I have all titles sitting around somewhere!
 
Couldnt get on with Theif 2. Far too reliant on stealth instead of just robbing ppl and killing and running away before getting caught. I hated sneaking and the detection thing.

For me thats pretty much why the Thief series is so good (and I thought the whole point of them) - shame Thief 3 was a bit more dumbed down.

I was more than happy to take ages getting past people in Thief 2 and trying to at first avoid and if I had to knock out people without being detected once. Great replayability.

Thief 2 demo is probably one of the best demos Ive ever played and one of the few I bought the game off the back of without consulting reviews...

Still think it works very well in 1st person mode over 3rd person

the only thing wrong with thief 2 is with the new video cards it doesnt seem to recognise them.
unless its just windows vista/7 it doesnt like.
 
With Thief 2 I loved how it felt very non-linear. In the sense that you needed to get up somewhere, you could try and find an open window and rope arrow up there, lock pick, come through the roof, etc etc. Awesome stuff.

Only game that has come close to that recently was Dark Messiah. That had awesome rope arrows.

Quoted for truth.

I loved the conversations as well, truly inspired.
