What is the greatest stealth game you have ever played?

[StigmataDiaboli]

Metal Gear Solid 3 in my opinion. Yet I feel that game has the least amount of stealth out of all of the first three I've played.

 

[Phototoxin]

The thief games.

You know i managed to make Fallout 3 into a really fun stealth game. Just me in my Rangers armor, my reservist rifle, and very high stealth rating on my chracter. I would clear our rooms and leave everyone dead in their seats.

I really enjoy the silenced weapons in FarCry 2. If you nail someone with the silenced pistol, for example, his buddies only know if they were either real close, or looking at him when you did it.

Okay, I don't think you two get the idea behind this thread. The choesen game must be specifically orientated around stealth. Yes, I know you can make a fair job at playing through Fallout3 as a stealth game but you did not adhere to my rules, the A.I must be virtually imposible to escape from. And as for Farcry2, WTF????!

I agree, far cry 2 was awful for stealth

TOTALLY AGREE

Probably Thief III. Mainly because I'm not a PC gamer, and it was my first Thief experience (long before the Yahtzee review, fanboys) I can't even play it again because of the Cradle level. It's probably one of the single freakiest gaming experiences I've ever had. Some guy even wrote, what I think is around a ten page article, just dissecting that one level alone.

Metal Gear Solid 3.
Not only is it my number 1 favorite stealth game, but it's one of my top 5 games of all time.

I Really liked Assassins creed, despite everyone saying its horrible.

 

[neuromasser]

Metal Gear Solid

 

[HaussVonHorne]

Well, number one, it says plain as day at the top of the thread that 'stealth game' is open to interpretation. Number two, Far Cry 2 was pretty neat for stealth, it just wasn't easy to play that way, which also makes sense when you think about it. There is a togglable crouch button which reduces your visibility, improvable with the purchase of camoflage at the weapon store. Also the enemy's visibility is effected by darkness or alertness and audio cues. Use of silenced weapons actually has a noticable game effect.

So, let's sum up. Far Cry 2 has silenced weapons, a togglable 'stealth mode', and you can actually try to sneak around without making noise. Did you guys even try to play the game from a stealth approach?

Yes I did try it that way, but seeing as the developers themselves admitted that they threw in the stealth option last minute, I wouldn't call it a stealth game at all.

I play Fallout 3 as if it was a stealth game. Same goes for Oblivion. (In Oblivion, I can hit people with my Daedric Bow, and they still won't be able to see me. )

If those don't count, though, I'll go with Assassin's Creed - the only stealth game to happen entirely in the day.

Well, I made it work on infamous level. Maybe I'm just better at playing videogames than you.

Or maybe your a self-righteous troll.

Hitman: Blood Money. The hilarious garotte animations as well as the rather surprising degree of flexibility in how you actually finish the missions make a very good game. Though it might not really be a full stealth game, since going guns-blazing is a viable tactic. Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory?

These are the two games i've been playing a lot of recently, great picks mate

Hardly played any stealth based games, just the first couple of Hitman games, Tenchu (original) and the metal gear series. (going to play assassins creed in a bit), but a choice WAY out of leftfield, Beyond Good and Evil has some pretty good elements of stealth in there.

IMO THE only good splinter cell game, the rest were too easy.

 

[Blanks]

i would like to say assassins creed, but it's not exactly a stealth game
