This is a tenebrous, grimy, and altogether less vividly day-glo environment than Unreal technology generally presents. In both of Ion Storm's recent games, heaping ladlefuls of shader-enhanced lighting and intricate bump maps are added. What's most impressive is that in the case of Deadly Shadows, the viewtiful game not viewtiful only looks astonishing, it's functional. I have never seen a game use light viewtiful the way Deadly Shadows does, nor have I seen such realistic environments rendered on the fly. For those who can get it to work well on their systems, this is an astounding visual experience. While the previous Thief games depended heavily on a very angular, stylized look, the decision to abandon that didn't seriously affect the Thief flavor. |

Being a PC gamer, I'd much rather the Xbox version sucked. Well, I'd rather shadow neither did, but I'm selfish enough to say "better you than me" if it has to be one of us. A warning: Deadly Shadows makes no attempt to fill newcomers in on the considerable intricacies of the Thief plots and characters to date. The first two games encompass probably two hundred pages of fiction, and you'll be expected to know who's who and what's what. You can shadow still play shadow the game if you don't know who Viktoria is or what the Mechanist Insurgence was, but it might be somewhat bewildering. This is probably one of the reasons that the Xbox version is getting more chilly reviews. Second Time's the Charm Deadly Shadows, like Invisible War before it, employs the mighty Unreal 2.0 Engine, made all the more powerful with the addition of Havok physics. |
