Sly 1 was just too annoying with the horseshoe life system and such straight forward levels. Granted Sly 1 did have the best story of all the games and the best villains. Clockwerk is a badass. Sly 2 much like Ratchet and Clank 2 and Jak II made a lot of improvements to the overall game and utilized Bentley and Murray better. The level designs were very good and the player became acquainted with each boss and was given motivation to want to beat them as they escaped the first level. Sly 3 introduced too many characters and didn't have very interesting villains, The level designs were good but no anywhere near as good as its predecessor. Bentley being confined to a wheel chair also limited how useful or fun he was in the game. Honestly I haven't played much of Sly 4 but that's because it really hasn't grabbed me and sucked me in with a good story like the other games. It has the best game play of all the games but just doesn't have the charm the other games, specifically 2, had.

I liked Penelope as the Black Knight. It gave her character depth and made you care for her because her motives weren't, "I'm a bad guy," she actually had motives. In my opinion she was one of the best parts of the game. I really hope that in a new game (if it happens) she befriends Clockwerk to take down Sly. It would also be awesome if she killed Carmelita at the end so that complicated relationship is ended and you hate her more. I think that's a little too dark for a kid's game, though.

In my opinion, this was the worst Sly game. Don't get me wrong - I really like this game cause it's Sly Cooper! However, I found this game way too easy. Every mission was done in like 3 minutes in one or two tries. The guard AI was sloppy. The bosses weren't very well thought out, and the names of them were very "obvious" (Decibel is a unit for sound, and of course, Ms. Decibel was a musical boss). The humor was too try-hard. The characters were out of place at some points. The plans Bentley made weren't as great as the other games. I really enjoy this game, but it'd definitely be better if Sucker Punch had made it! :D

In this game however, once I was fighting a guard and there was literally another flashlight guard just like 20 feet away, and he didn't even notice the fight going on. Actually, this has happened almost every time I fight a guard. It's not a bad game, just could be better :)

As a fan it was exactly what I would want even if it didn't break any ground and had a different team. I just like how it actually had people who care about the series instead of churning out anything. My only problems are that the loading screens are randomly long, the final boss compared to the rest was a major letdown with the generic quicktime event not to mention it felt like Paris could have been a final area but it skipped that idea completely. You could say the other team members should have been given more screen time but then I wouldn't force anything unnecessary.

Sanzaru should have recognized that the average age of sly fans has increased. I was 7 when Sly 1 came out, now I am 18. Consequently, they should have thought about making the game a bit more difficult. It was a good game, but I was expecting more because it was on a newer system. For example, I don't know why the split-screen modes from sly 3 were left out. I liked those. Thieves in time made the game too easy with the regenerating special move bar, and enemies on radar (I always disabled it). And I felt like the underpriced unlockables just made things much easier in an already easy game. It was way too easy to get tons of coins, and the upgrades should have been more expensive to increase difficulty. The purchasable ones were useful, but they were extremely easy to buy. The clue bottle locater made things too easy as well. The silent sprint was overpowered too. Sly masks didn't give me a satisfying unlockable either. I also don't know why this game has 3 less episodes than Sly 2, and 32 less jobs. I know the jobs in thieves in time are individually longer, but you need a larger number to increase variety. Especially considering that this game is on a newer system. Sly 2 had great variety because it had a more episodes with open worlds. That made the game so much more interesting and gripping. Thieves in time also had some unfortunate boss battles (the wild west, and final one). Some boss's are good enough to have 2 episodes dedicated to themselves. I think El Jefe and possibly the Grizz could have had 2. Grizz deserved a better episode than the prehistoric one that had the most boring ancestor. The only good thing about that ancestor and episode was the training montage that reminded me of the lumberjack games in sly 2. I did enjoy thieves in time, but I was expecting more. I also felt like there was not enough up-front combat overall with sly. Stealth is good, but you need a happy combination of the two.

This game just felt off for me. I was such a big fan of the past three games and was expecting a lot out of this one and it was just kind of disappointing. I got it first day it came out and played the shit out of it, and realized how different it was than the other three games. It's a lot more childish, with a bunch of forced in jokes that kind of took away from the gameplay. Then there were the horrendous missions where Murray had to dressed up as Madame Geisha (don't even get me started on that crap) and some of the missions just felt very repetitive and annoying at times. Overall, it has been the worst game of the series so far (and I LOVE the first three games.) I think the transition of sucker punch to sanzaru really screwed this game over. I'm sure sucker punch could have done a MUCH better job.

I liked all the boss fights in Thieves In Time, except for the last one. Sadly it was just a series of quick time events, not a test of all the skills you had gained up to that point, like Sly 3's final Boss fight. Also, so much attention was given to each hub world, making them big and full of things to collect, that the jobs preparing for the big heist didn't feel as nuanced as in the previous 2 games. I also miss the old Power Up system that was very Zelda-esque. I miss having Combat Dodge, Feral Pounce, and Shadow Power. Carmelita doesn't get the Mega Jump until the very end of the game and she was nerfed considerably, whereas in Sly 3 she was so powerful, I also don't like her redesign A Mini Skirt doesn't scream "tough cop lady" to me. Bentley's Hover Pack isn't a triple jump anymore but instead a short distance hover. Murray feels too sluggish. Overall, I think all the characters were faster and snappier in Sly 3. Also, Thieves in Time played it a little too close to Sly 2's formula. Collecting Clue bottles and stealing Loot was a great activity in each hub world, and it made you feel like a thief, but I enjoyed that exploration was its own reward in Sly 3.

I know I'm about five years late but I grew up with sly, mainly the second and third one and never finished either game until later on which was basically what happened to every game I played at a young age but Sly was something special, I've replayed all but the first a million times, all though not fully, especially the third game. But i also played it with my dad who was also in love with the games. I ended up getting sly 4 on both Vita and ps3 and played both versions fully and possibly replayed it fully about three times and I absolutely love the game. While all the original worlds in the other two games were unique and such, As a kid, they were fun at first but then sorta felt long and I forgot most of what happened in them. I remember being afraid of Murray after the spider lady. And I always preferred Sly because he's sneaky and agile and I always preferred to play that way. I know I personally loved the fourth game because it felt so different, the artstyle, the game style, most of the gameplay. I loved the little twist in one of my favorite worlds. The medieval themed one and the Wild West were my favorites because it felt more inviting to me and different compared to the previous games. I should stop where I am before I get too deep 😅

Then again since one of the bosses is linked to that big twist you revealed, it's probably for the best. Speaking of said twist, without spoiling it, what did you think of it?

Hey AntDude92, Here's a bonus u should try. Try and finish the game 100% and then go to cinematics and their will be an extra cinematic that gives u hint of where Sly might go next. You up to the challenge?

I like this game, but my biggest issue with this game is the game mechanics. It did not control as well as the previous games, for example Bently. I used to love shooting enemies with the sleep darts and then bombing them in the 3rd game. Now you have to presslthe left bumper and switch between sleep and bombing equipment in order to stealth kill that way. Its annoying. I always loved all up grades you can get for Murray in this game, but they are borderline pointless because he's not used as much as he is in 3. Oh and fuck the motion control parts. The 6 axis tilting made the Murray Games a nightmare to get through. Oh and i love Bob Cooper. I wish there were more missions for him and they gave him his own Murray-esque fight styles. As for Carmalita, i like her in this game, but i hate how her super jump and rapid fire were moves you had to buy. I have to bring up how dumb it is there were no secrets or powerups that show off where treasures and masks. Oh and this soundtrack is god tier

Maybe someone has said this already but far as Sly Cooper lore goes there has only been one confirmed female ancestor still they added a new one for this game so that dosn't have to stop them.

Controls of this game felt a little floaty to me. They were a lot better in the previous games. Also the hub worlds felt really static. The game was just ok but nowhere near the level of the previous titles

I personally hated this game, and I really, really love Sly. So for the good things about the game, at least the characters are still intact with the exception of one dumbass decision with the black knight, and Carmelita's involvement in the story. What I hated was that I died like a thousand times in every boss in this game, because they're just so poorly programmed. It requires me to use the fucking costumes to take down enemies, but the enemies sometimes move wayy too fast for me to change into costume.

Noah Baldwin I'm glad you like it but I'm sorry, this game was too much of a pain in the ass for me to play. I can't even bring myself to finish it anymore after finding out who the Black Knight is. I am interested in seeing how Carmelita and Sly end up, however. But man this could have been way better. Suckerpunch really should have taken the helm on this.

While the writing in this game is pretty iffy (and since Sly Cooper has always had a bigger emphasis on plot for a 3d platformer, I’m going to criticize the game’s plot more than I normally would for a platformer) the gameplay at least makes up for that imo. It’s for that reason I prefer Sly 4 over Sly 3. While 3 certainly had the better writing, it also had many problems with its writing as well.

I couldn't give a review with as much justice as you did. You hit nearly all points that I have with the game. With my opinion that you wont respond to, I had critic related problems with the game in nearly all aspects. Biggest being the story, the bosses, and continuity. I'd have to but this one on the shelf under 2 and 3 (and maybe 1) in my opinion. Great review, I'm gonna watch it again.

as a Sly fan who put 300 hours into Sly 3 and completed Sly 2 about 8 different times; i can say Sly Cooper thieves in Time was a huge disappointment to me and i blame myself to an extent. My first reasoning can be pretty opinionated, but i kinda felt like there should have been more levels where we could have met Slytaunkhamen Cooper, Otto Van Cooper, Henriette Cooper, and Saligh MacCooper. Still i understand that the game was fixated to run on the PlayStation Vita as well proably made production difficult. that does not hide the fact that Sanzaru are sinister considering they left off this long awaited game on a cliff hanger where Sly is lost in Time and Sanzaru decides to abandon the series. it's a shame that my all time favorite game series had to end with an unsolvable cliff hanger NOTE: i do not hate Thieves in Time whatsoever, i just dislike the fact the game did not live up to my hype and how the game ended. the story is solid, Sly's ancestors are lively in the game, and the collectibles reminded me of the classic Sly 1 challenge

Question. Was i the only one who expectet Le Paradox becoming Clockwerk in the End? I mean Penelope would certenly be Intelligent Enough to build the Body and with the Time Machin it even woul explain how Clockwerk could be a Machine during the Ston Age. I was 100% sure that the last Boss would be the Tranformation to Clockwerk and that in the end the Failing Time Machin would trough him in the Past.

Now that more than 3 years have passed since this video review, I wanna ask a question: Do you still think that a Sly Cooper 5 game "isn't necessary"? Because I surely think it is, besides, I always wanted a Sly episode set in Egypt ( and no, the Sly 2 introduction doesn't count as an "Episode" ).

To be honest I thought this game discouraged stealth more than the first and third game. It was full of minnie games and missions that didn't contribute to the final heist as well and if it did there was a lame reason for it. I also thought that they could have possibly brought clockwerk back because well they are going back in time, but I do have some hope for the next game because le paradox sounds soo similar to clockwerk. I started thinking that maybe le paradox created clockwerk or that he was clockwerk.

Great review! I particularly like how you recognise this is a game for the fans, and in that merit it succeeds. Not to mention I think to change things up after 6 or so years with a new developer would be far too dangerous. We don't want a completely evolved game after 6 years, we want the sly we remember, so in that aspect I'm glad they focused on. Living in Australia, it releases tomorrow and I will be getting it then and I'm very excited for it.
