Ohhhh sweet :)

FPS = First Person Sneaker, my favorite, and Thief is the best of the best.

I also like Sniper, Silent Service (series of submarine simulators, not really FPS), Assassin's Creed, but couldn't get into Hitman despite its sneaking overtones. Even back in the dark ages (circa 1988) F19 Stealth Fighter - awesome for its time (even having your aircraft detected could fail a mission).

And lol at all the taffers who have never played Thief!

Oh, and how could I forget about my other favorite Sneak-Em Ups: Deus Ex and Arx Fatalis

(Note, the voice actor of the main character in Arx Fatalis is Stephen Russell who did Garrett in the thief series)

I've completed 2nd and 3rd and now I'm going through the 1st for the first time, now that I have a computer (at least in temporary use) that can play it .

Oh hey YEA! :D Damn I really liked Thief 3 and it got me so sad it works so bad at Vista, but if they're going to release Thief 4 that will work on Vista, I'm definitely 100% getting it, can't miss such a game! :D Thanks for news

I have no issues running T3 on Vista, in fact I was just playing it then and mini'd to check the forums

(If I haven't said yet, I've written a minimizer for Thief 3
http://www.egonomics.com/thief3.exe
Let me know if you need to know how to use it.)

Anyhoo, time to get back to T3

It doesn't work for me at all, the games doesn't launch. I found on google that I have to check an option "Run as administrator", my account is an administrator , but I can't check that option.

I know T2 wouldnt run.

64bit is the likely suspect
