Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time

This has been sat on my shelf ever since launch, but yesterday I decided to get it played. What a great game! It's allegedly much simpler than previous games, but snooping around, picking guards' pockets before slamming them into the ground is extremely fun indeed. And it's surprisingly cinematic, with great voice acting and a chucklesome sense of humour.

I forgot all about this, I assume it's relatively cheap nowadays so I'll have to pick it up, really enjoyed the HD trilogy.

I really enjoyed it but I think it's weaker than both Sly 1 & 3. Going for the 100% was definitely more of a chore as well, though I can't remember why.

I've got one of the safes already. I quite like looking for clue bottles, considering how pointless it is. I really must give the HD collection a try when I've polished this one off, though I'll give it a bit of a rest before I start another game in the series.

Which game was your fave just out of interest, guys? Things I read on the interwebs suggest that most people like #2 best.

Those people are morons. 2 is the biggest slog in the world! I nearly gave up on the series because they took an amazing 3D platformer and turned it into a free roaming mess (sounds like a certain other series made by Naughty Dog). The Sly bits weren't up to scratch and the rest of the gang bits were poor.
1 is my fave, but 3 really did improve on 2 a hell of a lot.

Am I the only one who thinks Murray and his missions are shit?

Nope, I'm totally with you there. Bentley was equally as bad in 2 but has since improved a bit. That's the main reason 1 is my fave, pure platformy goodness.

I'm gonna have to go with Sly 2 myself, even though the platforming is the best part of the games I do like the open world system and I think compared to 3 it had the better levels and less fluff missions.
