Thief Gold

[the dark side]

@ hirnwirbel. nope, i think i got about as far as "my little freind" as well, and then gave up after far too much 7.65 NATO flavoured m60 death. i love a challenge, the harder the game the better, but, Hitman one... sheesh, even I felt that game went too far in terms of challenge. if you are going to arm the boss with a 200 Round large calibre GPMG (General Purpose Machine Gun) , you need the protragonist to be able to survive more than 2 small calibre hits! as much as i H-A-T-E quicksave... Hitman 1 seriously needed Quicksave! in fact, a Lot of people could not complete it, its why they remade about 80% of it as "Contracts".

oh jeez, "the cradle"... did frictional do that one? or did it just inspire them?,... ArrrrrghhH! sheer horror brilliance! (its up there with "ice station evil" and the "3rd Nightmare" in the first "Max Payne" for "awesome pant wetting horror level in non horror game" and thats some big bore company!)

thats why i like Thief 2 the most too, it feels more open and more creative than 3, it also feels better balanced.

true, theif 1 has its issues, but its still a good game, not many people get it right first time. new mechanics always feel a little off, as its very difficult to balance them on first attempt.

ah jeez, Constantines Mansion, the Atmosphere in that level is superb!
