Not as good as Sly 2, but I love this game a lot. In hindsight I can see a lot of the flaws pretty clearly... The ABYSMAL loading times come to mind, and I remember the game runs out of gas near the end (that final boss fight suuuuuuucckkksssssss), and to say nothing of the unfortunate cliffhanger it ends on. There's also that one twist regarding an old character most Sly fans hate, but as someone who didn't care about Sly 3, it doesn't bother me. I love Sly's relatives a lot. especially Tennessee Kid and Bob.

Hope this gets a remaster/rerelease some day, but with how Sony seems to hate any game that wasn't made in the last 5 years, and Sanzaru Games being trapped in VR game mines, I can't see that happening any time soon.
