I was very skeptical about buying Thief, but it is very addictive. The game takes its time with you to properly introduce you into the game. Graphics are amazing and movement is fluid. Overall, a great game and worth the purchase.

Great game for someone that loves stealth. A explorer's dream game. There are multiple areas that can be explored, or not, based upon your current mood. Great weapon and tool selection. Kinda like Skyrim meets Assassin's Creed.

The game trailer looked awesome, so I pre ordered. Began playing and was interested for the first hour or two. But quickly realized that this game is basically Assasins Creed with less things to do, less interesting story, and worse controls. On top of that you are stuck with arrows that don't kill guards and a blunt instrument that takes far to many blows to knock anyone out. If you get in trouble with more than one guard just give up and die, it will be faster. Finished it as fast as possible so I could get a decent trade in value.

This game is a good game that brings back my memories of the old Thief games I used to play. Glad they brought back this game, I was thinking a few years ago how great it would be if they made a new Thief game.

I've played through the majority of the game so far, and while it is a playable game and quite fun at times, I'm not enjoying it as much as I had hoped. I have been a fan of the series for awhile, and this just does not live up to its full potential. They should have done a full reboot similar to Tomb Raider.
The story is pretty weak, and for those not familiar with Garrett or the series, the story is even weaker. It plays akin to a series of mini-games rather than a single cohesive game.
Overall, I hope there is a sequel so the developers can redeem themselves, but for this iteration - it's a forgettable entry in the series.

Pre-Order Game

The process to pre-order included finding the game on the internet, processing the order, waiting for the order on time, traveling to the proper store, picking up the game, and on with my business. The pre-order program seemed superb from my experience.

There are times in which you are stuck and will take a couple of attempts to get past. There is plenty of content and the story line has been interesting so far. Many more hours of game play ahead.

The game is beautifully done, however, since the graphics are not actual game play that's about all that was good about it. The actual gameplay gets very monotonous and on occasion downright boring. The 'thieving' in Assassins Creed is more entertaining and possibly even more difficult. I do typically like first person shooters, but this one is just not going to be included. It is comparable to Dishonor, which I also didn't like, but for those of you that did this might be one you want to try.

I have about 30 hours into this game. This game is a great stealth game. The puzzles are fund and the thief vision is great. It's a great change of pace from other xbox one games.

Game is slow and the controls aren't great. There isn't an overview map of the city. Game doesn't feel like a XBOX ONE game but instead a 360 game

This game is ok at a discount price, but is a bit limited, not really comparing to others like the Assassin's Creed series.

Really nice stealth mechanics in this game brings back old school gaming. Also the world in this game darker and gruttier which feels right for the theme.
