It just cracks me up that they cant use Russell because of whatever crap that was about lip movement not syncing up, and yet we see "Garrett" wearing a mask all the time. LOL
They didn't say anything about lip syncing did they?

Tragically, yes. From what I have gathered from this very Forum is that they rejected Stephen Russell as voicing Garrett because he is too old to do the vigorous 3rd person motion capture sequences while lip syncing his own speech clips. The fans are pissed (myself and Dia included), and have launched a petition to free Stephen Russell! Or, something to that effect.

You're an idiot.
Go read the sources yourself.
Fool.

So, this game is coming to the next generation of consoles, right? And these platforms are based on an x86 architecture, similar to PC's, which is good a thing if they're going to make a port of this game from consoles, as it won't affect a lot to the game's performance. But I'm still worried if most modern pc's and ultrabooks will be able to run the game smoothly at medium settings
In my case, I have got an ultrabook with the following basic specs:
Intel Core i5-2537M with 4 threads and a maximum clocrate of 2.3 Ghz
Nvidia GT 620M with 1GB of memory
4 GB of DDR3 RAM
Do you think guys it will be enough?
The CPU is probably
more than fast enough. The GPU however is
not. Sorry to say, but that 620M is a horrible gaming chip, especially if you have the 64-bit version. Check with (
http://www.techpowerup.com/gpuz/) GPU-Z if you're not sure about that. The 620M is basically the same as the Geforce GT 430. a low-budgetcard from three years ago.
It's processing power is 240 GFLOPS, vs 1840 GFLOPS on PS4.
It's memory bandwidth is 14.4 GB/s vs 176 GB/s on PS4.
It's memory size is 1GB vs 8GB on PS4. (although I suspect 2GB will be enough for Thief4)
You do the math. It's barely fast enough for current games, so I don't even want to think about how next-gen's Thief will run on it. 640x480 at minimum settings if you're really really lucky.

First, it's an UE 3 game, so it won't feature ultra-awesome OMG I'M GONNA J*** OFF graphics, and graphically it reminds a lot Dishonored, but with a more realistic aesthetics
UE3 games such as Bioshock Infinite and Batman:Arkham City can bring even high-end cards to their knees on Ultra settings.

Third, I hardly doubt the PS4 will feature 8 GB of DDR5 RAM, unless the console will be priced at 1500$ and Sony wants to get in bankrupt.

Intel® Core™ i7-3630QM (2,4 GHz, 6 MB of L3 cache)
RAM: 6 GB DDR3
GPU:NVIDIA GeForce GT 635M (2 GB DDR3 of memory)
OS: Windows 8 64 bits
Now, what do you think about those specs?
Better, but the 635M (~ Geforce 550-Ti) is still
nothing compared to PS4's GPU.
It's processing power is ~300 GFLOPS, vs 1840 GFLOPS on PS4.
It's memory bandwidth is ~30 GB/s vs 176 GB/s on PS4.

And yet I'm talking about an interview I've read and you are going on what you have "gathered from this very Forum"?
You're a immense buffoon.
They said they do a full capture; motion, face and voice. Whilst I agree that SR could still have been used they didn't say he wouldn't be able to lipsynch, they said his physical abilities don't match up to what they need.
Not thats a crock if you ask me, and there is no reason why they couldn't use his voice because (as other people have said) he's a voice actor. But it's still not about lipsyncing.
This is the difference between jtr-crew (which includes you) and the sensible people on here - although we often agree on something (Russell, 3rd person, not turning Thief into an action/assassin game etc) SensibleCrew like or dislike something based on the facts, based on reality. You twits dislike things for what one can only describe as mystical reasons, which is another way of saying stupid reactionary bullshit.

I love how out of date this guy is.

Stuff.
So you get someone else to do the action-pirouettes and get Stephen Russell to do the face and voice* and employ cuts and edits to smooth over the cracks. It's not a problem that wasn't (

*hell, or mostly just the voice - last time I looked it's a first person game

Little numbnut of mine, I worded it that way because I knew you would lunch on it.
