The end of a downhill slide

I am a huge fan of the original Sly Cooper game. While it was not a difficult game, it offered a lot of fun and challenge in the form of lengthy platforming levels. In that game, you could spend several minutes smoothly running through the levels jumping, swinging and shimmying among the obstacles. In Sly 2, this model was thrown away for a more GTA-inspired mission-based model. Missions had less platforming and were often short and just plain boring. In Sly 3, all that was good about Sly is gone. The missions are very short and often pointless. There is very little good platforming. The only positive parts of the game are the art, humor and story. If you are looking for a fun platforming experience, give this one a pass and pick up one of the Ratchet games or Psychonauts.

Good, but not "AWSOME"

Sly 3 is good, but there was room for TONS of improvment. You want my opinion? Sly 2 was better. Before I got this game, I was sure beyond reason that it was going to be an amazing wonder. Alas, I was a naive fool. This game is good, but be prepared for a huge disappointment. Sure, you can play as more people, but most of 'em can only do 2 things. Being extra guys may be a huge pro, but they are so limited, it's more of a con out of disappoinment, know what I mean? Besides, even if they were as good as the original characters, you can't even play as them at will, only on certian missions, I'm serious! If you read rhe other reviews, you know you can play as Dimitri, but he can only be played as when he's underwater, and can't even use his electric blast. When you play as Panda King, you can't even use fireballs, "Firey Wheel", or "Palms of Thunder", you can only shoot fireworks, and do a flame chop. And when you play as Penelope, you can't play as her directly, you can only play as her RC car, or RC chopper. And speaking of her RC chopper, there's no bombs or cannons on it, only a grappling line. On the good side, you can play missions whenever you want, after they're completed, that's an absolute pro. Another strait pro is that Bently can pickpocket, Murray on the other hand can shake the loot out of the gaurds' pockets. On the other hand, no stealing loot from those stands. And no clues. You can't even buy moves for the extra guys. By the way, when bently sings opra, he sounds AWFUL. I was also kinda disappointed that there was no Clockwerk. Not to mention, the ending is REALLY bad, so they better make a Sly 4, and if they do make a Sly 4, I'm probably gonna hesitate to get it. This IS a fairly fun game, don't get me wrong, but Sucker-Punch has let me down. Do yourself a favor and rent this game before you buy it.

P.S. Penelope is not a rabbit, as I once thought, she's a mouse.

I never heard of sly cooper before. But my friends have it. Fun. A little cartoon violence. Says one bad word. I don't have a play station. It is pretty hard because i'm a girl. I get confused. The only characters I know are Bentley,Murray,Sly,Carmelita,Octavio, and that purple lizard guy in jail (I forgot his name.) Love it.

This is a great game. It doesn't top Sly 2: Band of theives, but it is better than Sly 1. The Graphics are the same as they were in Sly 2. The plot is very well made and the Voice overs are good.
Overall I give this game a 9.0/10. Sly is still the man

Graphics: 9/10
Voice overs: 9/10
Plot:10/10
Overall Score: 9.0/10

One of the games that get you hooked

Six words: THE BEST SLY COOPER GAME YET. The location is much bigger, the story is much better, and the fun is much cooler. I love the jokes and gags but there were several stuff that really bothered me. First, it's short, second several of the mini games like hacking into computures and picking locks are really annoying.
But for people who love tense and funny games, check it out. But i suggest renting before buying.

Fun as the rest of 'em...

I bought it for my son. He seems happy with it. I asked him how he liked it & he shrugged his shoulders & said "It's as fun as the rest of 'em..."

First off, I don't have this game.

I dont want to get this game. I bought Sly 1 and 2. I finished both of them. The problem is, you cant do anything after you beat the game. If there was multiplayer, I wouldn't have sold those games.

I'd rent it. Its worth $40 if there was multiplayer or online play

my sons game
