Thief 3: Deadly Shadows
Thief 3: Deadly Shadows is the third installment of the popular, stealth-based action-adventure game, Thief, where you play as Garrett, the master thief that is rarely seen and never caught. With a large arsenal of thieves' tools to use, clever AI that will act on their suspicions and track evidence as well as fun, non-linear ways to approach an objective, the gameplay itself is incredible, as you might expect. And of course, you'll need to use whatever means necessary to sneak around, steal for the rich to line your own pockets and do other thief stuff. However, fate apparently has other plans for you and for Garrett...That being said, the Steam version of the game seem to be riddled with plenty of game-breaking bugs, making the game hardly playable even to the most ardent of fans. So, if you can get a CD copy of the game, then by all means... after all, it's a great game. But if Steam's the only choice for you, then you might want to just save up and buy something else instead.
