In Ion Storm's last game, Deus Ex: Invisible War, there were some complaints that the graphics didn't come up to snuff but that should not be an argument that will be put toward Thief: Deadly Shadows. The PC build has graphics that rival those of our current champion Far Cry with some incredible looking texture maps for the levels, along with detailed character models and especially the lighting. Having moon beams come through cracks in walls is truly a sight to behold, and again makes you feel like you are in the world rather than just playing through a game level. The AI in this build is also pretty tightly written with your characters and enemies not appearing to cheat at all. If they can't see you, they react accordingly and if you make noises (or create noises to distract them) the characters will also react accordingly. By the way, the screenshots that accompany this preview serve a big point; while you can brighten things up, that low light level is the default one in the game which goes to show how dark things can get in Deadly Shadows.
