Well it looks cool....but will it actually be a true thief game?
Who knows.
Do we have any info yet?

I hear you but its been like 9 years since the last Thief game. Anyone under 25 would have been a kid when the last one came out.
are we sure that it is "just" nextgen PS4Xbox3?
Today is an embarassing day for GAF, Next-gen experts all over the place man
Here's hoping that I still can bonk guards in the head with the blackjack.
And please have huge levels like Thief 1 and Thief 2.

Part of the thief 4 team was at the IGDA meeting in montreal during Raphael Colantonio(Co-creative director on Dishonored) 's speech where he showed off Dishonored. Don't worry, the team is well aware of the connection. 
This could well be the case, it's hard to tell scope from screenshots. I'm just saying that the shots as displayed are most likely not from gameplay on either PS3 or Xbox360 (or Wii U for that matter).
GI will have info, not sure if that reveal is in 20 minutes or 80 minutes.
Probably

People were also calling 360 visuals "Xbox 1.5" early on so there's that.

It looks pretty good to me. It is not as if I expect every game on next gen to look like Shadow Fall or Watch Dogs. I mean there were games released near launch on PS3, cough Untold Legends cough, which didn't look a big leap at all. Not that I am comparing this to Untold Legends, just that not all games for next gen systems are going to blow people away visually

Images are too small/compressed. It looks next-gen or cross-gen, but I'm sure at 1080p it would look a lot better. The detail in the distance looks great on that shot with the tower in the distance.

I think blackjack to the cranium should be a nice compromise.
Also, guard corners you and takes a swing, you bring out your knife to deflect his attack and run away. Hide inside the cardboard box while the ALERT timer ticks down...
Also, looks like a reboot. Really wanted to play as the girl introduced in DS.
It makes me cringe too :lol
People need a history lesson now more than ever.
You don't know what Thief is, do you?
Looks good, want to seem some footage though, make sure it's still Thief.
Deadly Shadows did this, but it was optional.

Assassins Creed is nothing like Thief. At all. Dishonored is...marginally like Thief.
I've never played a Thief game but it makes me cringe too. I'm well aware of what Dishonored is an homage to.

Considering this is from the same studio (not team though) as Deus Ex HR I'm sure they understand the importance of offering an option to turn off object highlighting

Those screenshots give me hope.
The bow looks kinda goofy, but I'm nitpicking.

Wow at reading some the posts in this thread.
PSA: Think before you posts. I mean really think. Think about what you are saying. Impulse posting is not always the way to go.

So much climbing and rope hanging, yay.
I sure hope this isn't an assassination attempt
can only hope the pc version has higher res textures.
Everything else looks good to me. Excited

Obviously not, but your making a huge asspumption there in that this game has been in development since 2008-2009 (unless you have confirmed info i'm not aware of...).

But that's not an assassin.
That character model looks so good that it will probably have 3rd-Person+1st-Person hybrid gameplay just like Deus Ex: HR
Thief, bandit, assassin - there are differences, yeah, but you know exactly what I mean

Item glint was definitely in Thief 3 if I remember correctly. Although honestly speaking I actually wouldn't mind because I thought I was gonna have the same problem with DX:HR but the environments were so detailed compared to previous games that it was actually confusing for me to tell which objects or items are interactive and which or not. Also I appreciated the option of turning highlighting off.

Looks like what I'd expect from a 1st gen next gen game.
That sounds really awkward.
Can't unsee the double jointed pinky fingers.
