Woohoo! Hope it comes out soon. | |
| |
First thought: AWESOME!! | |
I just hope they don't mess it up like they did with 3. That was bad. | |
Yeah, pretty much. | |
First thought: Nice! | |
Come now, Andy. We already knew about SW:ToR. | |
It'd be pretty cool if it comes out in the next few years, and it'd be even better if it ends up kicking arse. I really would like a game like it for my hypothetical future gaming computer. | |
Great, if not unexpected news. Hopefully it will stay unique and won't steal too many elements from Assassins Creed. | |
Nice! I remember getting Thief 1 for my birthday when it first came out and jumping around the house in giddy happiness!
I imagine it's being spelled "Thi4f" because someone in marketing thought it was clever. And, just as a quick side note, I often hear a lot of flak for Deus Ex 2, but I rather enjoyed the game. I thought it was fun! But I suppose I'm in the minority. Back on topic: Let's hope they do it right! Stealthy, you're not a tank, steampunk, less magic and fantastical crap. Why can't we have a medieval or steampunk stealth game what does NOT involve something supernatural? Sheesh. | |
Don't ruin my moment. :P | |
Everythings the "worst kept secret" nowadays. That same phrase has been applied to 10 different games over the last month (If you're wondering, Forza 3, Kid Icarus Wii, Mvs.C 2, the beta for Uncharted 2, Twisted Metal 5, Guitar Hero: Van Halen, PsP Go! or whatever the internet is calling it, Lost Planet 2 on the Ps3, Six Days in Fallujah, and of course the port of MGSIV to the 360. Yes, some people are still harping about it). On topic: Don't care, GIMME MY FUCKING HITMAN 5!!!! Syringes beat Blackjacks every time. | |
At first I was excited | |
mmm, thief, hopefully better than 3. but now i know its coming im gonna have to replay all the others (again). | |
i can't wait, i loved the old thief serie, so hopefully they are going to make it even better | |
I've never played any Thief game. Yet people who have similar tastes in games like me often said it was good. I'll definitely give this one a try. Even though stealth games make me fall asleep usually... | |
my god.. this is awesome, one of my favorite game series!! | |
REALLY anxious to get some more info about this baby... | |
My reaction as well. | |
There's always so much hate towards Thief 3...I actually rather enjoyed it. Not saying it's better or worse than the first two, just enjoyable for different reasons. Anyway, Thief 4. I've heard rumors that it'll be set in modern times. If it is, that pretty much precludes any supernatural elements (or makes them much less likely). I kinda hope it's not through. The City was a great setting and I'd miss the Hammerites too much (and, to a more narrow extent, the Mechanists, but they're gone for good of course). | |
Yes ! This shoulld be good. | |
Uhoh. Yahtzee isn't gonna be happy. | |
Awesomeo! Time to download the first three, anyone know if they're on Steam? I assume they are, everything is. | |
Only Thief 3 is. But the other two are so old you probably won't be able to play them anyway because your PC is too awesome (I know mine is) | |
This makes me excited. But they'll probably fuck it up. So it also makes me sad. "Tell them it's over... Tell them Garret is done" ...Sure thats what you said THREE GAMES AGO SUCKA. | |
Not sure about Vista but Thief runs fine under XP. (I'm in the midst of a replay, actually.) Depending on your particular setup it may take some dicking around to get it running; if you need help with it, check out the Thief forums at TTLG.com, they'll get you going. And I'll add my name to the list of people who thought Thief 3, awful name notwithstanding, wasn't a bad game at all. Robbing the Cradle was particularly mind-blowing. On the whole it doesn't even approach the first two games, but that's a testament to their brilliance as much as it is a criticism of Deadly Shadows. They're an incredibly tough act to live up to. | |
And I have yet to play the first three ones. I bought the two first ones but neither ran on my computer, got kind of turned off by that -.- | |
There aren't much people who hate it because its a bad/broken game, they hate it because its a huuge letdown in comparison to its predecessor. Seen as Deus Ex 1 was pretty much one of the deepest and most advanced games there were for its time (and currently) and Deus Ex 2 was nothing but an okay mainstream-ish game. | |
More like Thief 2, less like Thief 3 please and thankyou | |
Hell yes!!! I've been waiting for this for so long and, for better or for worse, it's coming. I still wonder if they will use any of the plot elements my group thought up for our movie. | |
I could probably make it work by downgrading my video card drivers but I don't want to do that just for one game... | |
Well errr.... *cough* I'm a mac user, I just have Vista through boot camp, for the exact reason of visiting old games that I love (read: Deus Ex) | |

Thief 4: It's Official
The worst-kept secret in the industry has been made official: Thief 4 is coming.
The announcement went live on the Eidos Montreal website this morning. Rumors surrounding the game's announcement have been swirling for weeks and while it was widely assumed that a new Thief title would be the studio's secret "second project," today's confirmation will be a source of happiness - and heated debate - for stealth fans everywhere.
"Were in the early development stages for Thief 4, but this is an incredibly ambitious project and a very exciting one," Eidos Montreal General Manager Stéphane D'Astous said. "It's too early for us to offer any specific game details, right now we are focused on recruiting the very best talent to join the core team at the studio and help us make, what we believe will be one of the most exciting games on the market."
Among the absent "specific game details" is information like platforms and release targets; the only real news available at the moment is the fact that Thief is alive and kicking. The official Thief 4 website is online but empty at the time of writing, but feel free to jump into the conversation at Eidos' Thief 4 discussion forum.
