Non-linearity in my opinion makes games better.

Some people don't seem to get that there are two kinds of linearity. The first one is linear maps where you have only one path to follow. The other one is linear gameplay where in order to advance, you have to do stuff the same way every time; you have no choice in regard what to do if you want to advance. You can't sneak past enemies, you have to kill them (or, on more rare occassions, you have to sneak past them but you can't kill them).

Hitman is the greatest stealth series of all time!

Have you seen Hitman: Absolution though? I've been reading the Hitman forums and they seem to afraid of the game becoming an linear action title instead a open stealth title. After reading preview & videos, they seem to be correct. That would suck if true.

That is false, because Thief II is a much better stealth game than Hitman ever was. Hitman is still pretty damn awesome though.

What the hell is thief? I assume it's just another shovelware PC game... as usual.

Shovelware? You dare call Thief shovelware? Maybe Thief is pretty old already but. It's. Not. Shovelware.

But I'm guessing responses like this were your intentions anyway, no?

Nah, I was just kidding. I don't even know if the PC gets shovelware.
