User Rating: 8.6 | Thief: Deadly Shadows PC
A significant improvement over the previous Thief games, Deadly Shadows manages to maintain the intensity and suspense necessary in a stealth action game without making the game overly tedious or impossible. The graphics are very well done, and add to the atmosphere of the game. With its excellent sound effects, the game knits together a world that is immersive and interesting. The voice acting for the most part is excellent, with a few glaring exceptions. The game is difficult at times but not impossible. It is somewhat more difficult than rather easy Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow, but it has some challenging missions. There are indeed, as some have complained, some odd quirks with the enemy AI, and there are still some odd contrivances within the game that seem out of place (such as the main character's ability to carry huge amounts of loot). All considered, however, this is no more distracting here than in other similar stealth-action games. Overall, for fans of stealth-action games, this game is definitely worth a look.
