Thief 1 - 3 haven't been surpassed. Mark of the ninja and Last of Us also impressed.

Blacklist was surprisingly excellent. Arguably the best stealth game in the last few years and way better than any of that there, Assassins Creed nonsensical nonsense.

I haven't played many stealth games but MGS 1-3 and Dishonored were pretty good. Hitman 2 was extremely good as well; almost forgot about that one.

1. Splinter Cell Chaos Theory

2. Thief 2

3. Deus Ex

4. Hitman Contracts (or Blood Money if you prefer)

5. Mark of the Ninja

Dishonored gets an honorable mention, but it's just far too easy a game. Even on the hardest difficulty, it's just insanely easy to stay out of eyesight by using blink and the jumps. The recent Styx game was also surprisingly good. Oh, and Blacklist is still horseshit compared to Chaos Theory; the shadowplay in it was useless (most of it being line of sight stealth), sound played no real role, and it was severely hampered by its incorporation of Assassins Creed style movement.

The Russian mission in which you attempt to shoot the man, but the man is a cardboard cutout and you are the actual one to be Assassinated was very good. One of the best missions ever.

Stealth is my favorite genre, so hurray for this thread.

  1. Alien Isolation - Tremendous AI.
  2. MGS4 - Octocammo!
  3. Splinter Celt - Black Ops - Despite it's lukewarm reception, I honestly think it has the best stealth in the series history. Terrible protagonist, though.
  4. Deus Ex Human Revolution - Best customization and bag of tricks. Wonderful protagonist too.
  5. Day Z Standalone - Most frightening enemies (the other d-bag players).

Honorable Mention: Tenchu Z - Guilty Pleasure... best mêlée stealth kills anywhere. Just don't' get stuck in the awful toe to toe combat. And Google the advanced controls, because lord knows they aren't in the manual or tutorial.

As far as games that feature stealth where it isn't' the focus of the game, I loved Skyrim/Oblivion... once you leveled up your character. Perfect Dark Zero could also be played as a stealthy game if you went a little OCD on how you approached the levels.

Of course Splinter Cell and Metal Gear games are atop of the pile when it comes to stealth.

Another one I really enjoyed was Oblivion. That was a great stealth game if you wanted to play like that.

The Thief games are still the gold standard of the genre,especially Thief 2.
Chaos Theory is also great.

Thief 4 was also shit. I picked it up on launch day and never even felt like beating it. It was the biggest letdown for me all year, and Watchdogs came out this year so that's really saying something.

I remember playing that alongside my bro and it took us some time to realize that it was a story element. We thought it was a bug at first. LOL.
