Rating: 4.7/5
Sly 3 is the third and last Sly Cooper game made by Sucker Punch productions. Naturally, the game takes place after Sly 2's conclusion, which I won't go into detail about in case any of you want to get into the series, or don't already know. Sly 3's plot revolves around one main heist: the Cooper Family Vault. The stuff of legends, and home to every thieving trick the family has to offer, it is a stunning addition to the series. The gameplay is much the same as the predecessor, where your primary focus is to complete missions and steal everything in sight. There is much to see and do, and you will very rarely be left with spare time. I will warn you that it suffers the same fault Sly 2 had, if you could count it a fault, in that you will find yourself prowling around, stealing coins to save up for that next juicy upgrade you've been ogling. The story is amazing, has its ups and downs, all of which are masterfully delivered. You will find many old faces in Sly 3, and some new ones of course. The witty banter is still there, and stronger than ever. I strongly encourage all fans of the series to play this game, and to understand, that from Sucker Punch Production's perspective, this is the last game in the series.
