Thief: The Dark Project is genuinely acknowledged as one of the greatest stealth games of all time. The only times when it isn't is generally because people are nominating the sequel instead.

Before there was BioShock, there was System Shock 2. The first full title produced by Irrational Games when it was still a tiny spin-off from Looking Glass Studios, this terrifying hybrid of a first person shooter and RPG first came out 15 years ago today.
