Grr, why the hell did Looking Glass ever have to die, anyway? I would cheerfully kill for a sequel to System Shock 2...

As a Thief 2 Fan, I sympathize. And I know why they died.

Eidios owned them. And they decided that all the profit from SS2 and Thief and Thief 2 would go directly to the marketing budget of Daikatana. Then Romero spent more and more money and they deemed that Looking Glass wasn't making any money.

So long live John Romero who's only saving grace is that he'll burn in hell.

Well, that's not a saving grace is it?

But don't worry, Warren Spectre is working on Thief 3 now. He may do a SS3 too. Never know.

I am just getting into the whole Thief series and I'm royally pissed that utter trash like the psychotic menace to society known as Romero gets funding for anything at all and great set of producers like Looking Glass get shafted.

But then, this was Eidos.

I hate those guys.

Damn right!!!

Man, Thief 2 had me freaking out in the dark.

Parents come to check on me. "Nothing, just nearly missed the jump"

I gotta get Thief:Gold!

The spiders in Thief are doing that to me...

Uh.

All of a sudden GYAH! SPIDER ON MY FACE!

Anyway...hehe...where are you in Thief 2? I got it for my boyfriend over the holidays...I say all but the last mission :)

And I still say the head mechanist sounds like Droopy.

I beat Thief 2. heh.

You think the spiders in Thief 1 are bad?

The Spiders in Thief 2 have me terrified. TREMBLING.

The Last Mission rocked my socks...

Tell me when your BF reaches... THE TURRET ROOM! muwahahaha.

That was the freakiest room I've ever seen. Sadistic *twitch* developers.

He's beaten it now too, I just got to see all but the last mission...those turret things are nasty to begin with. I don't like the connotation of "turret room".

But I'll probably end up playing it anyway hehe

*sigh*... Well, although Looking Glass doesn't exist anymore, the people who were in it do. Maybe some of them will make another nifty game together?
