rn|| Playing: Demon's Souls || Reading: Solid Clues ||rn|| The Atheism Union || SEN: Zeviander || last.fm ||I'll just stick with Dark Project and Metal Age... thanks. Its obvious this game is going to be less complex and more casualized than Deadly Shadows.

Most Anticipated Game: Fire Emblem Awakeningwhy can't they just let the classics die. Why must everything be destroyed for the same sake of making more money, if it isn't developed by the minds behind it don't advertise it as another thief game.
They should learn something from Bioshock.

Crippled? Technically, even console hardware will pull off vastly better graphics tech and immersion than was possible in past Thief games.[/QUOTE]yeah..and that "vastly better graphics tech' will mean petite and linear levels to make them fit into consoles' puny memory. And immersion? I doubt that. Thief3 graphics were a lot better than T1 and t2 and yet it wasn't as immersive as them. I doubt the new one will come anywhere near T1-2 immersion, no matter how good graphics it will have.
Still hoping for excellent game though
[/QUOTE] I know Thief 3 wasn't anywhere near Thief 1 and 2, but it was a great game overall. If it's as good as Thief 3 I'll be happy. I love Garret's voice.[/QUOTE]
T3 was supposed to end Garret's story. I'm a bit torn, on one hand...it's Garret and I want to hear Stephen Russell's incredible voice overs again, on the other hand though if they would force it artificaly...I'm not sure.

Or...they could both work on it. And get Ron Gilbert AND Tim Schafer involved. Now that would get my attention.Pro Tip: You can easily hide all posts by any user. PM me for info + list of trolls to block (now with auto updates!)

Plus MI is Gilbert's baby, Schafer had small input into it. compared to Ron. I would rather make him to Grim2 ...

[QUOTE="AdrianWerner"]It will propably be crippled by consoles limitations, so I'm putting more hopes into DarkMod, but as Thief3 has shown even crippled Thief is better than any other stealth game

[QUOTE="-DrRobotnik-"]Awesome!!!!!!! I hope its a 2009 title, because it would automatically jump to the top of my most wanted list if it is![/QUOTE] Given they announced Deus Ex 3 over a year ago and we've haven't even seen gameplay footage of that yet, even a 2010 release for a new Thief game would be unlikely.- Please wait.
