Certainly the weakest Sly Cooper has to offer, and a lot of odd character changes that don't reconcile with the original trilogy, not to mention the undercut of the original ending. Otherwise, not as bad as they say. Some hours of entertainment.
hate this game and my ps3 broke before the boss fight so fuck this
Sometimes I like to replay the whole series to remember how good they were and then remember how thoroughly this one killed the franchise outright.
These dudes were so fucking lazy that they just allow you to make a shit ton of money in level 1 and just always have a high ass stockpile to always buy upgrades that you'll never really use. Every treasure that you find on the map is rarely over 150 coins yet just pick pocketing guards will have a 2/3 chance to net you a 200 or 500 coin worth item, completely negating the point of bringing treasures back. And for some reason ALL OF THEM ARE TIMED but not because they're booby trapped or something realistic like that. They just are and they vanish instead of blowing up if you aren't fast enough to get back to the hideout.
I'm probably the only person irked by this specific change but I really hate that if you jump from a high spot you will now have a hard landing animation on Sly when his whole schtick is being nimble and light on his feet, and makes movement just a little worse. Speaking of movement this game has the most innacurate system for environment interaction out of the entire franchise. You'll try to land or latch onto something and regularly you'll be flung to something off screen or the animation will just give up and you have to reclimb something or fall into a pit, or with the spire jump if you jump off too quickly the game will give you this short hop that will just fling you into pits. I didn't know I was playing every Assassin's Creed.
I ain't usually easily offended but as a black man myself The Grizz is a fucking wild ass character that for all intents and purposes should not have been allowed to exist. That is just out and out no debate a racist caricature of a black person. Like not even Tsao and Mz. Ruby were this bad.
This game overall is just a case study in character assassination but anybody who knows anything about this game has heard this insanely valid criticism ad nauseum so I'm not gonna repeat it.
Your existence.
Is God's failure.

Functional sly cooper gameplay at best, horrible writing and overall level design really makes it not worthy of the sly name.
this was almost my first platinum but i had to sell my ps3
QUERIA JOGAR DENOVO AAA!
Not as good as Sly 2 and 3, but still a fun game in my opinion. Some of the choices they made with the story is dumb, but the gameplay is honestly great, and the game looks beautiful. It's definitely worth playing, few problems aside.
Only played it the one time when it came out but I remember it being pretty good. Not the same level as 2 obviously but pretty close to 3
