My underwear never cared much for Thief: The Wait-Are-Those-Fucking-Zombies?! Project, but The Metal Age rocked.

Thief Gold
Thief 2
Lots of community patches on their forum

They work fine for me.

I would've liked the third one more if it didn't send you to a loading screen every five minutes. If Human Revolution was any indication, we'll be loading every thirty seconds in Thief 4.

dude the game is like 300 years old, the third that is the loading times are seconds.. well worth creeping around stealing stuff in the city.

what they need to do with the fourth is add a inventory, larger story make it almost like an old school rpg game with lots of cities etc to explore and new gear to be had and such.. but all of it like a sneak, and no FUKKEN ASSASINS CREED PRINCE OF PERSIA BULLCRAP!

Human rev was okay, It wasn't as awesome as deus ex 1-2 but then again it's hard to improve perfection.

It's as old as World of Warcraft. The first time I saw one of those glowing things at the end of a hallway I thought I had triggered some spell trap. Then I get close to it and it says "WOULD YOU LIKE TO LEAVE THE AREA? Y/N." And that was on a mission level, not the city. The city I kind of understand. But still, hitting a loading screen every two blocks sucked. Plus I remember it taking its sweet time to load.

They need completely seamless mission areas for Thief 4 (the same as the first two), and, if they're inclined to do the whole city thing again, they need to keep the loading to an absolute minimum -- they need to be bigger than Deus Ex 3's city zones.
