Darn, no mentioning stuff like Tenchu or Shinobido then. :(

Mark of the Ninja and Stealth Bastard Deluxe are both nice ;)

I loved Alpha Protocol, but you don't have to play it as a stealth game (which I didn't because I don't like stealth games). Very underrated game that's a bit buggy. It seems like the bugs may cause more issues when you're trying to be stealthy, though (i.e. being seen through cover, etc).

I'd say you should also check out the original Deus Ex, it gives you the option of approaching everything stealthily or going in with rocket launchers. (I normally opted for stealth :P )

Splinter Cell Chaos Theory is a very good stealth game. Thief 2 is my favorite of the 3 in the series as it improves a lot since the first. You could also take a look at Velvet Assassin which was fairly good even though it's a bit clunky and painfully linear. You can get it really cheap in a sale.

+1 to Velvet Assassin. Rather liked it back when I'd rented it for the 360

Dishonored is so good, you can complete the game fully non-lethal even (taking care of bosses and targets in more interesting ways :P).
Deux Ex and DX:HR are both great games for playing stealth as well, as is Mark of the Ninja and the Thief series.
Happy sneaking!

Dark is quite a bit of stealth, bad game though, very poorly developed, bit buggy and extremely overpriced.
Hitman (older series, not much the last one)
+1 for MGS
Amnesia? Outlast which is on pre-order would seem to adjust your reqs. There's more, a few on snes or psx, can't remember names tho, but you wanted PC/steam only so..

Heard some good things about Doom 3's The Dark Mod. They're working on a standalone. So if you're like me and don't have Doom 3 you'll have to wait a little :(
EDIT: Read recommend stealth game and jumped the gun, didn't know it had to be available on Steam. SOZ.

Any Splinter Cell game. Most of the early ones are without UPlay, if that's the only thing holding you back.

My recommendation
Deus Ex - Stealth can be a bit broken, but it's fun to play due to how many option the games give you on how to take on missions.
Mark of the Ninja - I really don know what to say rather than it's a solid stealth game
Gunpoint (Puzzle platformer + stealth) - Not difficult in the stealth department since it's more of an puzzle platformer but it's a fun game none the less
Splinter Cell until Chaos Theory(?) - Very solid Action-Stealth games then the series went all actioney
I'd avoid
Bethesda RPGs - It's not real stealth no matter how you play it
Alpha Protocol - Don't get me wrong the narrative is amazing, but the stealth gameplay itself is broken meaning the AI will detect you no matter what.

The original Deus Ex is amazing. Invisible War was a piss-poor sequel though.
The only games I can think of are as follows:
Fallout 3/New Vegas (While not stealth games, you can choose to play a very stealthy character as I did)
Monaco (I haven't played this one, but it seems to have lots of stealth)
Stealth Bastard Deluxe (I haven't played this one yet, but it seems to have lots of stealth, hence the title)
The Elder Scrolls V - Skyrim (As with the Fallout games, it's very much a choice, but oh so much fun)

It's been said a dozen times already, but Mark of the Ninja - it's a great stealth game.

I recently got back into the Hitman series, which caused my interest in Stealth games to rise dramatically. So, fellow Steamgifts members, can you guys recommend me some good Stealth Games/Franchises? Ones that I'm looking into thus far are:
Dishonored
The Thief Franchise
Deus Ex: Human Revolution
I'd prefer it if you kept it to games that I can obtain on Steam, and feel free to tell me why I should/should not get the games that I've already listed as well as new suggestions. However, I would appreciate it if I were given an actual recommendation, not just a suggestion. Don't just write "Dishonored", or "Don't get Dishonored" please tell me why you suggested the game and give me a reason to check it out, or to not bother with it. The games that I AM NOT going to consider are:
The Assassin's Creed Franchise - Played them all, love them, but lets face it, they're not stealth games.
Splinter Cell: Conviction - I actually want to try this franchise out, but I really don't want to have to deal with the Uplay BS that comes along with it.
Other than that, I will consider all recommendations.
Edit: I see many people recommending the original Deus Ex as well as HR, but what about Invisible War? Is that one any good? I also saw many people recommend Mark of the Ninja so my list now contains both Deus Ex: GoTY and Mark of the Ninja as well. As far as Alpha Protocol and Velvet Assassin go, I'll pick 'em up for real cheap if I get a chance, but they're not a priority atm.
