Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time demo

Date played: January 30th
Platform: PS3
Session fun rating: 4/10

Disappointing... I used to love Sly Cooper but it turns out that this plays exactly like the old games. While that's not really bad in itself, it really doesn't bring anything interesting to the table. The demo features a section with Sly, the turtle and the fat pink hippo. The Sly part was all about simple platforming, avoiding spot lights and pick pocketing some mice. The turtle part was platforming and hacking. The hacking was actually pretty fun since it plays like a simple dual stick shooter. The fat hippo part was some of the worst brawling I've done in a game in a long time. Too bad, I used to love this series...
