Support Reminder of rule 3; no AI-generated content

231 Upvotes

There is no exception to this rule, and it does not apply purely to art images or text; AI-generated projects done by Claude or other such agentic AI are also disallowed by this rule.

With the rise of technology like this it's easy to get excited about the future of modding, decomp/recompilations, and other such things, but we do not allow this here.

We obviously cannot catch it all, and we are not telling you to hide the use of AI either; we do have ways to tell what has or has not been generated with AI tools (including just checking your post history on other subreddits to see exactly how knowledgable you truly are in the fields necessary to produce these projects), and will be removing it any time we see it.

If your post gets removed under this rule and you really did not use any tools such as Claude, ChatGPT, Replit, etc., please send a mod mail and we can talk about it.

Announcement PSA: The PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita Stores will be shutting down over the next year

162 Upvotes

Depending on where you are located in the world, the PS3 and PS Vita digital storefronts will be shutting down anytime between the next month and the next year.

This means that if you want to get a copy of the digital versions of The Sly Collection/Trilogy, Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time and/or Bentley's Hackpack on PS3 or Vita, you are on a timer.

  • Mexico, Honduras, Nicaragua – PlayStation Store on PS3 will close starting August 2026 (approximately 1 month from now).
  • Additional Latin American and Middle Eastern countries – PlayStation Store on PS3 will close starting late 2026 (no exact date given as of yet, at most 6 months).
  • In all other countries, PlayStation Store on PS3 and PS Vita will close in July 2027 (approximately 1 year from now).

A few things to point out; the PS Vita store seems like it will not be shutting down anywhere until July 2027, so even in countries where the PS3 store will be shutting down sometime this year, you still have a while to buy a Vita and get copies of the games digitally. Further clarification from PlayStation may change this, however.

What this ultimately means is that by July 2027 the only official way to play Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time and Bentley's Hackpack (if you didn't already own them), will be through the PlayStation Plus streaming service. It also means that Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves will cease to exist for new players on Vita, as it is not included physically on the PS Vita cartridge of The Sly Collection/Trilogy.

This does not affect the Sly Cooper series re-releases on PS4 and PS5 that occurred these past couple of years; those will remain available as long as the PS5 store is up.

You will still be able to download any games you own digitally on these platforms "for the foreseeable future"; as long as you get a digital copy, you will not need to download it immediately, in case you don't have a working console or some other such complication.

TL;DR: If you want to play The Sly Collection/Trilogy, Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time and/or Bentley's Hackpack on PS3 or PS Vita, this is your last chance to get a digital copy of those games. The physical versions of The Sly Collection and Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time on PS3 will certainly continue to exist on websites such as eBay, but the prices will undoubtedly rise. The physical version of The Sly Collection/Trilogy on Vita does not include Sly 3 so you would have to buy the digital version of the whole Collection/Trilogy (as the games are not sold separately on Vita) to guarantee yourself a copy of the game.

I think this big bad wolf was invincible, right? Let me know. I like it when there's an invincible wildlife enemy in a game; it kind of speaks to the unstoppable force of nature. What invincible wildlife enemies in video games do you find awesome?

Media Thoughts on the Sly Cooper and the Thievious Raccoonus PC Port

Post image
151 Upvotes

Just finished the Sly Cooper PC port and I gotta say one of my favorite things about it was how smooth the framerate felt. The game looked and played great on my 74Hz monitor with the resolution and all the settings set to max and it honestly made an already amazing experience even better.. One thing I do have to mention though are the audio issues. The sound was bugging out pretty badly in China, especially whenever there was an enemy on screen . I also noticed some audio cutting here and there. But other than that everything worked just as expected. Also being able to skip cutscenes is such a nice addition. Overall huge props to everyone who worked on bringing this masterpiece to PC. You guys did an amazing job and I seriously can't wait to see Sly 2 and 3 get the same treatment!

It runs at ~3 FPS, but it's basically a 1:1 port of the Project Cane PC port with nothing cut or reduced in quality. Almost no optimizations have been made yet.

Theory Sly 2 Replaying Levels

22 Upvotes

Hi Everyone
So I’m replaying Sly’s 2 again and had a theory about the fact that you can’t replay levels
Is it because of how much would have to be “put back” to do it?
Jailbreak explains my point best.
Say you wanted to replay “Train Hack”. The game would have to take the crashed train out of the prison wall, get the trains running again, and basically put the level back to how it is when you begin it.
Menace in the North, eh is another good example with the cracks in the ice at the top of the level, the mammoth and the oil pumps.
I know that timing or cost is more likely but I do wonder if this idea also occurred to Sucker Punch when they were making the game?

I spent like 20 minutes trying to find the whirlpool scene from The Odyssey, but the bloody movie isn't on digital yet. The hacking mini-games are always a delight, and I think Sly had some really interesting ways of changing up gameplay from time to time. I hope they come back if there's a future game.

Discussion Future Ancestors? Spoiler

Thumbnail gallery
24 Upvotes

We’re aware of 10+ Past ancestors through out the 4 games, but what would Sly’s descendants/children look like/specialise in terms of future ancestors? what would their signature abilities be ? , considering each ancestor brings something new to the table and adds new information to the Thievius Raccoonus, the last ability we kind of know of is from Sly’s dad with the “Slide on Lasers” ability.

What do you think Sly himself added to the Book?

Sorry! Take two.

I'll be honest with you guys. As an Aussie who really likes the Sly games, Green was the worst choice for a kangaroo. It's just a sickly looking colour. Why would they choose green? The design is really nice, and I like the joey in there too, but green is always associated with sickness.
