  It still surprises me that Sly wasn’t that popular. It felt like a good chunk of kids my age played it

  If there were to be a 5th & final Sly Cooper game this is what I'd like the plot to be: Bently, Murray, Carmelita, & Dimitri get a scientist owl to help them build a time machine to go back in time to rescue Sly by using his DNA to track him. But once they find Sly they can only come forward a little at a time, & every time they stop they encounter another Cooper member that they have to help. They could even have Penelope return, but this time as the pirate Black Beard. By the 5th or 6th level, we finally have Sly meet his father, but since Sly knows his father has to die, he's conflicted on whether to try to save him or let him die again. Meanwhile, the owl scientist who helps rescue Sly gets injured through these adventures with the Cooper Gang & he builds a robot body for himself, which we later find out is Clockwork. At the end of the game, Sly & the rest of the gang make it back to the present, but Clockwork steals the time machine, goes back in time, & he gets revenge on what happened to him by making it his life's work to go after the Cooper family. Through this 5th & final game, the story comes full circle as Sly inadvertently created his family's mortal enemy in the form of a bootstrap paradox. The game ends with Sly & Carmelita finally getting together as a couple with Sly ending his life as a thief so he can have a family with her.

  Episode 4 of sly 2 was scaring the shit out of me as a child(5yo maybe) because of the dark setting. The fact that, for the first time ever, Bentley was alone and had to fight his own fear to save his best friends got me thru that and I will never forget   it. Thinking at this right now made me realize why i give so much importance to my friendships :')

  Sly 4 feels like it was written by a showrunner who’s concepts for a Saturday morning Sly Cooper cartoon got turned into a game last minute.

  I honestly love how Muggshot talks about the Thieveus Racoonus having to many big words than he says “ Transgressed and Violated “ 😂

  I wonder if any of the writers or developers, from the original sucker punch lineup that worked on the sly series, ever come online and watch any of these retrospectives on their past project/baby. I’m sure they would be moved and love to see his how good of a job they did by putting in the love they did and seeing how this series has been appreciated by so many of us that grew with it. Forever a sly fan and I want more

  It warms my heart to know there are others out there who grew up playing these games, and still love them to this day

  I&apos;m so disappointed that SuckerPunch/Sanzaru Games didn&apos;t take the opportunity to name one ancestor &quot;D.B. Cooper&quot;<br>Y&apos;know<br>Like the THIEF<br>C&apos;mon
