Sly cooper was the best game series ever, with an amazing plot and flushed out characters along with one of the best villains I have ever had the privilege of fearing as a kid.
The Sly Cooper trilogy (along with the Jak & Daxter and Ratchet & Clank trilogies) is one of my all-time favorite series. There are no modern games that are as good as these three legendary franchises. Modern games once finished, I rarely play them again, while these 3 trilogies I play them at least 2-3 times a year, because they never bore me.
Remember renting this game as a kid and played it with my siblings. Good times! Then beat the other ones to! They just don't make games like this now and days.
when playing this as a kid the ONLY way i was able to beat the voodoo boss was by dancing the moves to it - to like enforce a mind/body focus. it was fun
When Carmelite chases Sly with her gun, she talks about arresting him, but by making the ground fall beneath him into the abyss, you'd think she was trying to kill him.
I remember The Lair Of The Beast being the bane of my existence when I played this game as a kid. I was sooo scared of that chase with the beast that I almost couldn't finish the level.
Nice longplay video of Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus, and I even still have the original Sly Cooper game for PS2 along with the HD port of the game for both PS3 and PS Vita as part of The Sly Collection, and I also have the digital version of the original PS2 game to play on both PS4 and PS5 since this game was also recently released digitally on the PlayStation Store for both PS4 and PS5.
Raleigh's voice over the speaker in Prowling the Grounds sounded like his real voice, but in The Gunboat Graveyard, his voice over the speaker sounded lower pitched. Also, it sounded like he said "If any of you let him get his hands on that key, I'll personally prolong the heart of you for an entire fortnight!" That was what it sounded like he said. I think he actually said "I'll personally flog the lot of you for an entire fortnight!"
In this game, Sly uses a turret to protect Murray from Muggshot's and the Panda King's guards as he goes up the hills. In Sly 3, the Panda King uses a turret to protect Murray from General Tsao's guards as he rescues the van. Irony.
Does anybody else think that the patty wagon driving segments in the SpongeBob SquarePants Movie Game were derived from Murray's racing segments in this game? They both had things that enabled the player to drive faster when the player hit them on the track; in this case, dynamite sticks, in the case of SpongeBob, molecules.
When Bentley read from Rioichi's page of the book, it included adding "-eth" to the end of verbs, even though that's an old English thing, not Japanese.
For those of you wondering about the health system in the sly franchise the 1st game's health system is similar to the crash bandicoot franchise collect horseshoes for extra hits but in later games a Seperate health bar is given instead
I just got out of watching you "legeng of zelda majora's mask" long play. So i checked you out and saw this, this was my favorite childhoof game, i am still a kid, but i saw my sister play it when i wad little
This is a pretty good intro to a really good series. I remember how I beat the game for the first time, but I couldn't see the ending because it was a used game and it kept freezing when I beat Clockwerk.
As Sly was running toward Clockwerk in the lava, it sounded like he said "I am...the seven...flowers...lavertine...lay...feet together...I will live...immortal...sequence seven...redirect energy...power cells alignment" Can anyone make heads or tails of all that?
Walkthrough Text: Story: The Cooper Family live their lives as thieves until 1 day when the fiendish 5 broke into the House killing the family and stealing the pages of the book. After, Sly, The son of the family of Coopers forced to live in the orphanage where he met his 2 pals: Bentley, the brainiac with a powerful wisdom. But hes somewhat of a coward and gets scared easily. Murray, the Brawn with a poweful fists! But he isnt very smart! With the 3 of the fellas, they make a good reliable team... They pulled off heist after heist since their first meeting. Then Bentley saw and told the Team that Camerlita fox is holding a Secret File to the case involving the killing the Cooper Family. So they came up with a Plan to steal the File and Track down the Fiendish Five. So they went to Foxes Office in Paris and stole it. They read the File and read the info on the Fiendish 5 that are bounds accross the World doing Evil things in the country. Gameplay: This is a 1 hit platforming gameplay meaning if you take even 1 hit, you die. Whats even worst, you lose a life. Life system: You start the game with 5 Lives. If you run out of lives and died again, you get a game over screen asking if you wanna continue or not. If you say yes, you have to restart the whole Level. Checkpoints: They are holograms with sly's face on it. With this, you can restart there rather then restart the whole level. Lucky charm: Also along with the 1 hit kill system, you can take a lucky charm which gives you a extra hits. However you can only get up to 2. Blue and yellow. Yellow: 3 hit points Blue: 2 hit points None: 1 hit point They are close when you hear them. Coins: the currency of the game. You can get a lucky charm by collecting one in field but you can also get on by getting 99 coins. Every 99 coins, you get a extra charm or extra life if you have yellow charm. Combat: Now the meat of the gameplay is the combat. The combat involves you swinging your cane, using your abilities to kill enemies or gaurd. Stealth: This game also strongly involves stealth which gives a 1 hit kill a good reason to be here. Stealth abilities include: Sidle, grabbing on hooks, and walking on ropes. More will be found later. Clue bottles: there are 20-40 of these in each level. Collecting all of them lets bentley give you the code when you interact with the vault to get a new Ability. Switch abilites with L2/R2. Treasure Keys: they are found at the end of levels. Grabbing one will automatically let you exit the levels. They are used to get to later portions of the hub levels and to enter the boss. Be prepared before you go to the boss. Holographic markers: they are shown as giant green spike auras shown over entrances to levels and exits from levels. You can also heard them when your close.

You will hear old sirens throughout this level. Anyways, go up the ramp to get to the tank or whatever and bentley tells you how to "sidle" which uses to take cover behind objects, building and such. And you can also move while taking cover. Press x then hold ○ to sneak around the tank then jump on a few platforms to get to the pipe then walk through it. Then at the end, you will see lasers below you. Jump on each platform down while avoiding the lasers. If you touch one, the siren at the end will go off and the lasers turns red. They will burn Sly upon Contact the next time he touches them. However, you can turn them off by destroying the siren at the end. Go down the hall go left then turn another left to the red door. Its locked so you need to go outside and walk alongside the building exterior. Head inside Foxes Office and open the Safe to get the Secret File. But you need the code to open it. No worries Bentley will tell you the code. Enter the Code as Bentley told you with the 3 digits(1-9 each digit). Tilt stick up/down to change numbers. Once they are matched, The Safe is open and the File now yours to keep. Anyways head outside and wait a sec... did i just hear Criminal?... Yes i did from Mrs Fox Herself. After a brief Lovely discussion between the 2, she will start shooting shock pistol at you. Dodge these while making your way down stairs to the ground level. Collect Coins if needed but keep going. Anyways watch out that her shots can make cars explode here. N Jump over warning signs but watch out for the shots and exploding vehicles and enter the van. After that, you will get a cinematic Cutscene that will Explain his past and his plan. Van: This is your hideout for the game. Here you can: Select a chapter to go to Watch a movie You only have 1 movie and 1 chapter to go to. So click on it to go onto the chapter in Western Europe. Chapter 1: Tide of Terror(Raleigh) Episode 1: A Stealthy Approach Clues: 20 As soon as you enter the level, the music will give you goosebumps as its powerful at first. Anyways ahem... head up into the cave then out. *Bentley Talks* Bentley will give you a rundown on climbing ladders, ropes and such. These are just basics. Compare to other games, you dont have many stealth abilties. You will get more soon. After bentley talks to you, you have a wide open area to move around in. Towards your left is the boat. Walk towards it and you will see these bottles with a cap on them. It looks like they have a letter or a clue hmm... anyways pick these up to add 2 bottles to your clue bottles(2/20=10%). Walk up and take the enemy down. Wack the mast support beam to get 2 clue bottles(4/20=20%). Go back up to the trees under the rope right from where you entered and grab a clue bottle(5/20=25%). Climb the rope to the right and grab another clue bottle(6/20=30%). Climb the rope to the left to the big tree and grab 2 clue bottles(8/20=40%). Go to the ladder in that wide open area and grab the clue bottle(9/20=45%). STOP!!! *bentley talks* What bentley said is that these searchlights can fry to the crisps. But only if you touched them TWICE! They are similar to the lasers found in paris, france. If you touch one, siren goes off and the flashlights turn red. Remember touching them again will kill sly. But wont kill him if sly has a charm on his back. Also bentley points out the checkpoint thats up ahead. Get by one so bentley can checkmark your progress. Meaning if you die, you will restart from there. Anyways continue to head that way. But watch out. These enemies are no pushovers in this game. But you still need to becareful because they can kill you in 1 hit. Jump over the starfish he throws and attack him to kill him. Continue and you will see the machine bentley mentions. Once you get by one, sly icon will pop up. *bently talks* Bentley will tell you that the source of rain comes from the storm machine that raleigh set up. But sly says regardless of rain or shine, he will still doit. Head up and take the enemy out. And cross the water here. Becareful when crossing the water as it has a strong current pushing you toward the edge of the water. You most likely end up on the branch but the branch has 2 clue bottles on it so pick them up(11/20=55%) Head accross another water here by jumping on the rocks.
You may have figured this out already but you can’t get to the combination screen with out collecting the bottles Bentley will tell you that you’re a few clues short
Europe sometimes gets weird names. They sadly miss out of the double entendre titles like the Ratchet & Clank series. 'Going Commando' , 'Up Your Arsenal'. One of the names proposed for 'A Crack in Time' was 'Clockbusters'. One for 'Into the Nexus' was 'Into the Nether Regions'.
Sly cooper was the best game series ever, with an amazing plot and flushed out characters along with one of the best villains I have ever had the privilege of fearing as a kid.
Flushed out characters
Sly Cooper, Ratchet & Clank, Jak, Spyro, Crash Bandicoot, Banjo Kazooie, great games of a genre that I can't enjoy, what a shame.
Yes, clockwerk really stayed in my memory for quite a long time.
@@GoodGamer360 Why you can't?
@@alejandrovillalba3736 I just don't like them, it is boring, I just don't enjoy their style of gameplay
the fact you added timestamps is absolutely amazing so so much love for this
Thankyou:)

Didn’t know my heart needed this. Thanks for this dude. Keep it up. Excellent series
Remember renting this game as a kid and played it with my siblings. Good times! Then beat the other ones to! They just don't make games like this now and days.
They make plenty of 3D platformers now and days, New Super Lucky's Tale just came out
when playing this as a kid the ONLY way i was able to beat the voodoo boss was by dancing the moves to it - to like enforce a mind/body focus. it was fun
This game STILL just oozes so much style and coolness
When Carmelite chases Sly with her gun, she talks about arresting him, but by making the ground fall beneath him into the abyss, you'd think she was trying to kill him.
I've never played this game before in my time but this game is interesting to watch I'll give it that 👍
The electrified tube Sly had to run through in Tide of Terror reminds me of a hadron particle collider.
I remember The Lair Of The Beast being the bane of my existence when I played this game as a kid. I was sooo scared of that chase with the beast that I almost couldn't finish the level.
ya i got freaked out when they were trying to get the clues and they were like under the beast - i didn't know you could get that close to it!
Story: remain in the shadows and stay silent!

Nice longplay video of Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus, and I even still have the original Sly Cooper game for PS2 along with the HD port of the game for both PS3 and PS Vita as part of The Sly Collection, and I also have the digital version of the original PS2 game to play on both PS4 and PS5 since this game was also recently released digitally on the PlayStation Store for both PS4 and PS5.

“Hey would ya look at that, a fireworks show!”
“…”
“…”
“Oh my gosh-that’s awful!!”
The electrified propeller blades Sly passed through in Tide of Terror were similar to the roundabout lighters he passed through in An Opera of Fear.
Sly Cooper and the Thievious Raccoonus
I may never be able to play this game, but thank god I have this to help enjoy it all the same.
Why? There are emulators online even for ps1 that you can play on pc
3:10:44 How did that "Kickass" get past the E Rating?! I never noticed it until now!
In this game, Sly uses a turret to protect Murray from Muggshot's and the Panda King's guards as he goes up the hills.
In Sly 3, the Panda King uses a turret to protect Murray from General Tsao's guards as he rescues the van.
Irony.
Muggshot definately didnt skip leg day. Love the game :p
Meet and defeat an owl I can read that code. Goodness I didn’t even remember that when I played this!
For those of you who don't already know this, Sly can use his binocucom while hanging from hooks and climbing on poles.
I remember this game! the 1st and 3rd Sly Cooper was my childhood~
At 19:10, I always like to think that Sly is exercising to a Richard Simmons video...in Hell.
My childhood dude!
Does anybody else think that the patty wagon driving segments in the SpongeBob SquarePants Movie Game were derived from Murray's racing segments in this game?

Wish they would continue the series...
This is a pretty good intro to a really good series. I remember how I beat the game for the first time, but I couldn't see the ending because it was a used game and it kept freezing when I beat Clockwerk.
2:31:54 That's one of the few Binocucom moments that you can't reexperience by pressing L1-at least with my copy of the game.
As Sly was running toward Clockwerk in the lava, it sounded like he said "I am...the seven...flowers...lavertine...lay...feet together...I will live...immortal...sequence seven...redirect energy...power cells alignment" Can anyone make heads or tails of all that?
1:27:41 why do i get vibes that Mr. Enter would find this banter riveting?
3:10:44 Top left...isn't this E for everyone? Also, each newspaper says that it was founded in 1997...the year Sucker Punch was founded. Nice touch.
Alright another classic game this game began my gaming experience
2:42:02 what even was that!!
Good video keep up the good work

Sly couldn't handle Clockwerk's bad gas lol.
The upper floor of the library Sly walks in with the barrel is kind of like the restricted section of the Hogwarts library.
Rioichi's move should have come after Fire in the Sky, and Otto Van Cooper's technology should have come after Tide of Terror.

A pesar de que ahora es un juego simple, a mis 8 años fue algo espectacular y oo sigue siendo, pero algunos soundtrack los cambiaron
If you have ibs and are spying on me nice lawsuit try I'm not stupid.
