This is a sweet new series.

User Rating: 7.5 | Sly Raccoon PS2
Sly Cooper and the Thievius Racoonus is about a raccoon that has the skills of a thief. In this game you will play as Sly and you will stop at nothing to get revenge on the people that killed your family. The story is well done with fun characters such as his two best friends that are a hippo and a turtle. The turtle is the brains of the operations and the hippo is the strength and muscle of the operations. Although in this one you can not play as both the turtle and the hippo, in the 2nd installment of the Sly series they install the ability so you can switch around characters. Another cool thing about this game is the unique climbing system never seen before in which Sly uses his cane like stick to swing from almsot anything. The bosses you face are loads of fun to kill and with each kill you get closer to your revenge. I know what your thinking if there are no problems with this game why is it an 8/10 well it is because the story mode is too short and there are not enough side missions. All in all this is a good game with a lot of new things brought to the table never seen before but it was cut too short.
