I was 24 when I finished the first Sly Cooper for the first time, and I instantly became a fan. It appears that you don't have to be a kid to genuinely fall in love with Sly and his gang. Sly 2 followed the next year, but it somehow took me another 5 years to complete the third chapter of the trilogy. Now I'm 31, and even though I liked the first two games more, and yeah, the challenges were sometimes hardcore, I'm definitely sure that I will miss these beloved characters. Why doesn't anyone make such games anymore?

The game is still fun, and the soundtrack is still fire. The atmosphere of Paradise City is almost magical - there are no people, but there are many AI cars, and the radio DJ brings so much life to it that you start to believe the city is real. No police or penalties, a new race at every traffic light, and (still) beautiful scenery. You can also change the time of day on the go, but it doesn't happen in an instant - the sun will quickly rotate for you in real time, as if telling you 'here you go!'. It's like you're in paradise, but a car paradise, do you see my point? The game nailed that feeling.
