GamersGate has slashed 50% off of the Thief The Dark Project & Thief Deadly Shadows bundle as part of its Weekend Sale.
The Reticule team come together to share their thoughts and memories of the legendary Shalebridge Cradle level from Thief Deadly Shadows.
In a podcast with Wassup Conversations, Jordan Thomas, director and the writer of BioShock 2 reveals his initial ideas for a new rapture and how they were shut down by 2K.
"My first proposal was about a little sister, it was playing as a little sister and it was much more horror-oriented pace and about vulnerability, closer to Thief frankly, but I was told no, we want it to be our Gears of War, this need to be a big shooter franchise with an emphasis on the shooter element, and so what I think of the protagonist of a shooter as is a big lumbering sort of porthole on a stick with guns sticking out in front like you’re almost a vehicle."
And he also wanted it to be above the sea or in space. What a wasted opportunity.
It's surprising the game turned out to be good with this guy at the helm. The combat mechanics were actually the biggest improvement in the sequel as much as he wouldn't want to hear that, everything else was inferior.
Sequestered in its own cozy corner of the PC gaming world is TTLG.com. This acronym stands for “Through the Looking Glass," an homage to Looking Glass Studios. It’s also likely as not a reference to the second Alice in Wonderland story of the same name because of the wonder that Looking Glass’ games opened its fans towards. Above all of Looking Glass’ masterpieces, their two Thief titles offered the most special wonder.
Forgetting that Thief 2 is important to the story, Thief 3 was just terrible by comparrison to the games before it.
Play Thief 1
Play Thief 2
Ignore Deadly Shadows
Play Thief 2X (Full length fan made campaign)
Following this plan will result in 100% less disappointment.
Buying GTA4 from D2D has kind of put me off buying games from DD websites. Took me 8+ hours to download the 13.5GB .rar file and it was corrupt.
I might just stick with Steam unless I see a great deal on another service.
Corrwin how would that work for most people torrents will be slower than a direct download becuase your uploading at the same time all DD need to do is get better servers stream works at my max connection speed 700kb/sec but D2D drive when downloading gta was downloading at 247kb/sec. iplayer did same thing you suggest and it was slow hell and bbc got complaits from start.
