That graph makes out like Thief is a lot more popular in a lot of non-English speaking countries.
From all of the Russian and Eastern European films I've seen though, I'm not that surprised.

Were those hyphens there on thief.com and thi4f.com before?
Getting twitchy for any signal now...
Edit: Lot of reading to do to catch up...

I noticed thief4.com actually resolves to something now (although it is only showing up as a dash ("-") so far). Have to think they've got something in mind for
that site right off the bat.
(If I missed this being mentioned already in the dozens of pages that have been added to this thread recently, sorry bout that. ;) )

Shit, why can't they just tell?

Because they have some heartless notion that holding off will drive up anticipation and bolster sales, how greedy of them.

Interesting. Now I don't get "page not found", 404 or whatever, but simply a blank page. Might be they are uploading something?
With a single '_' mark in it, now I've noticed.

You taffers are really going to stay up all night, aren't ya? C'mon, get some sleep, I'm guessing it's far more likely we'll get an announcement at 10am than 3am. :laff:
Prediction: Despite what I said earlier about Deus Ex 3, I think we will actually get a teaser trailer tomorrow. There's just been too much hype leading up to this date, I think they have more than just a simple announcement planned. :thumb:

Probably because they wanted to dot the "i" and cross the "t"s of the press release, make sure the web staff had everything solid, had the concept art / trailer polished and ready to go, and needed a deadline to make sure it all happened. Usually deadlines mean they want to hurry up and get it all ready to show, not that they're sitting on it for a month snickering about how people can't wait. :)
