Stealing A Look At Thief III

It seems that Gamespot has an exclusive look at Thief III, the latest in the stealth action FPS series from Looking Glass Studios and now Ion Storm Austin. The PC and Xbox game shares an engine with the other new Ion Storm project, Deus Ex: Invisible War (also previewed on Gamespot recently), hence similarly advanced AI and use of dynamic shadows, but claims much more focused gameplay goals compared to DX2, as well as its markedly different medieval setting. Looks like this new Thief could continue the Looking Glass tradition in fine style.

How captivating have the 1 and 2 been for you?

I remember playing Thief II and being so concentrated on the game that a few times I noticed myself trying to move the mouse or press keys quietly so that the guards wouldn't hear me... So they're pretty damn good games when they make you feel that intensively that you're in the game.
