Each SC level is incredibly linear, you may get a few slightly different routes through but it's still just a very wide corridor. Thief levels are generally topologically complex and open from the start and you find your way through them organically rather than being led by the nose by a voice in your head. Thief is also more forgiving when your presence is detected. They are the same game but Thief is just more fun. Yes and no.

It was however diluted in some aspects but this was offset by some of the greatest set-ups in the series. A masterpiece flawed by compromises.

The first two were two of the greatest games ever made. Easy. This one will be rubbish too, along with Deus Ex 3. We all know it. Back in the day, this sequel was rumoured to be sci-fi. Which will also be rubbish. The last Thief was rubbish. The first two were two of the greatest games ever made. Easy.

A developer showed it to me. He went on about it being open-ended, etc, but just seemed to walk into rooms and shoot people in the head a lot. I saw Thief at ECTS years ago.

I'm suspicious of any game that the PC mob say is the "bestest game ever ever ever" after being suckered into buying Deus Ex, though. And that Half Life should be called "Half As Good As They Reckon It Is". I’ve never played a Thief game.

But they ofcourse had to ruin both by mainstreaming them. Hope they do better with this one (and the new Deus Ex), but I doubt it until I see it with my own eyes. :) Thief was one of my favorite game series ever, next to Deus Ex.
