Are the Thief games (on Steam) configured to work on modern systems?

I know Thief 3 is. I own it and play it. Not sure about the other two.

As far as I can remember they will work on new systems. Can't say 100% for sure though.

I think it will.

If you really want to play it, I suggest you look at the forum, I am sure it will mention any problems fixes

I couldn't get past the first mission in Thief Gold. It always crashed, might be only me though.

Someone else asked about this earlier. Check out The Thief Bundle thread for some additional information. It sounds like the games should work, but some patching might be necessary or at least helpful.

Thats why I love steam, the most versions of old games on steam are so up to date that they run on high end systems.

The first two games are super old (released in 1998 and 2000). They have not been given any special treatment by Square-Enix for a digital re-release on Steam.

I suggest checking out the relevant game forums on Good Old Games or Steam.

I played all three Thief games last year on a modern Acer lappy with Windows 7. You will need a little work, here's a description to get the Steam version running but it's worth every minute of hassle. Believe me!
