mmh, seems Gareth has dropped the blackjack in favour of a knife...
Hope we don't have blood from that, I prefer to keep my water arrows for the torchs :p

edit: seems that the knife replaces the sword, in fact.
Damn, no more sword fights :(

well I think the knife is more approproate "tool" for a thief than a sword.

I like the idea of a knife better anyway..
I just hope they fix the problems they have with the engine so its not like Deus Ex 2. Sure, it looks cool, but good luck running it on anything less than the best computer available...

Um, well, Thorn, I hate to break it to you, but you're screwed.

Thief3 uses all the nifty effects in Dx2, and adds a few more. Luckily, it doesn't use the Dx2 dumbed down AI, though.

But I liked the occasional swordfights :p

As for the required rig, well, if the demo doesn't run fine on my PC, I'll get the Xbox version and that's it :p

Gareth is...not a particularly threatening name.

Whereas Garret - sounds a lot like 'Garotte'
