This thread has been linked to the game 'Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory'.
Got this on Thursday. Good stuff. Single-player is good, it's the best so far, though not much has changed, it's like what Max Payne 2 was to Max Payne. I never really liked Versus moe, but meh. Co-Op's really good, lots of problems though, quite hard to find a server in which you don't get disconnected after 5 minutes, but if you don't, it's amazing.
So, what do you guys think?

Excellent. That's what I like to hear. I'll give CT a try then. One I've got some non WoW spare time. It's more addictive than cocaine.

Pandorra Tomorrow was awful, it took linear game play to the next level, I had to force myself to finish it.
Chaos Theory is worlds apart from that garbage.

Yup, Exactly. The open ended GTA style freeform didn't quite work. Still, Garrett is by far and away the best character I've played. Personal choice only, and I'd love to see a movie set in the Thief universe with Karras.
I might give Chaos Theory a try, but Pandora Tomorrow, while entertaining enough, just didn't light my fire.

I've played all the main stealth games that really matter and Chaos Theory is head and shoulders above them all. The less linear levels, the humour, the atmosphere, the production values, the AI, the knife, the varied level design. All these elements come together to make what in my opinion is the by far the best and most polished single player stealth game out there.
That's not even mentioning the simply excellent co-op and vs modes.

Exactly.
The third-person perspective in 3 made it even better.

Thief 2 Is by far the best I've played. Multiple ways to solve different quests.

Its great what mission you on im on the one when you have to get that shelt something guy!
Really not a fan of the Metal Gear games in the slightest, I had Substance on Xbox but tired of it after a few hours and sold it.
If Chaos Theory had the story and atmosphere of MGS then it would be the best. For me though, MGS and Chaos Theory are about equal.
