Thief featured in Newsweek 12/21 Cyberscope I just ordered mine for $34 including 3 day s&h. cdmag.com here's the 1/4 page Newsweek on page 8 under an impressive screenshot of a bad guy. Try to Catch a Thief Most First-Person games are simple: if anybody moves, kill'em. Looking Glass Studios' Thief: The Dark Project ($49.94;417-547-1200) shows that it's just as much fun to be sneaky and sly. As cynical master thief Garrett, you carry out a number of missions, stealing from corrupt government officials and finding ancient artifacts. The graphis are beautiful, but the gameplay is even more inspired. You can sneak up behind a foe, knock him out with a blackjack, then hide the body. And instead of a gun, Garrett's main weapon is a bow with an assortment of arrows: water arrows put out torches so you can walk unnoticed; moss arrows create grassy areas over noisy floors so you don't make a sound. Just don't steal the game.
