Eidos has told IncGamers that development on Thief 4 is coming along in “leaps and bounds”.

“Let me reassure you that the team is making leaps and bounds,” Eidos Montreal bossman Stephane D’Astous told the site. “Personally i have NEVER seen a team, at this milestone (middle of pre-production) in such good shape!”

D’Astous added that fans of the franchise “will NOT be disappointed with Thief 4.”

Does this mean it will be out in 2010? Possibly be revealed at E3?

One can dream.

If this image of the latest issue of Edge is to be believed, Eidos Montreal is to announce its second game on May 11.

Yes, it’s Thief. Honestly, it is. Not long to wait now, then.

Majestic has issued a statement to Gamespot in response to accusations that point-and-click adventure Limbo of the Lost contains “similar” artwork to that included in Oblivion and Thief.

“In response to the shocking notification that some alleged unauthorized copyrighted materials submitted by sources external to the development team have been found within the PC game Limbo of the Lost, we (the development team) have given our consent and full cooperation to both publishers who are recalling all units from all territories immediately.”

So. Who’s actually to blame, then?

Police trying to find the owner of a stolen Wii are using the identities of the system’s Miis in an effort to close the case. The Wii was nicked around Christmas and contains Miis called Seb, Pheebes, Nicks, Ellie and Evie, among others.

Det Con Neil Johnson, of Kirklees CID intelligence unit, said: “The Nintendo Wii looks new and is thought to have been stolen before January 1. It may have been a Christmas present. If anyone has devised these characters listed and the Wii has gone missing, then please contact us urgently.’’

The Wii’s ID code is 7901 7431 3732 8898. That report calls Wii an “an interactive computer sports game, usually played through TV”, so if you’re the one with a robbed Wii, you’d better get in touch quick before they pour tea in it, or something.
