Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time

Cyrille Le Paradox
Date played: October 25th
Platform: Vita
Session fun rating: 7/10

I finished Sly Cooper 4!

I was very close to the end... There was a final scene with all the ancestors, navigating a few challenge rooms to find their canes, but it was short and very easy. Sly jumped onto Le Paradox's dirigible and fought him as the ship moved through time. The fight itself was very disappointing since it was just a series of quick time events... I timed my button presses to the on screen prompts and it wasn't long before the stinky skunk was defeated. Le Paradox fell off the ship into the water and was captured, but Sly was caught in the time lapse and wasn't seen after...

Murray, Bentley and Carmelita were very worried and tried their best to find him, but they weren't successful. Sly is lost in time, but at least all the bad guys were captured... I liked Sly Cooper 4. It wasn't amazing, but it feels good to play an old school platformer like this, and the Vita was a good platform to play it on.
