Have to agree here.

I was playing the first mission in Thief, and entered a brightly lit room -
an art gallery it looked like. Suddenly I heard the door open behind me.

There was a small cubby-hole in the corner, I quickly dodged into it, and
crouched in the corner, motionless,quite worried the guard would find me.

'I know you're in there' he said.

His footsteps approached, getting louder as he got closer and closer to my
hiding place. The tip of his sword poked around the corner...

"Ah it's nothing, must have been rats' he sighed, and walked away.

A great moment!
