Sly Cooper - It Runs In The Family (And Other Ideas)

The Walkthrough

For new people that are, my name is AJ Torres or Relentlezz41. I am a full time maintenance man and when I'm not swamped from work I game, write, and podcast.

And if you're wondering if I am not shaving and wearing a Yankee hat it isn't because I am mocking SavoCentral. I live in Connecticut, work in Putnam/Dutchess County state of New York and I am a Yankee fan. Just an FYI.

So here is the deal. It saddens me, but there will be not continuation of Sly Cooper. Fans want it, Sony and them probably don't. After the idea of a movie happened and got stopped due to the Ratchet and Clank movie bombing, there hasn't been a care in the world by the Sony corporate side of things.

Before I begin this idea I had in mind, let me go with some FAQ or Frequently Asked Questions.

Why Sly 4? There's a fourth game?

Savo Central covered this. Check out his YouTube channel. Highly recommend it.

In short, Thieves In Time (TIT) was a fourth game but it was based off of a cliffhanger that will not be fulfilled or completed. In doing so, there can be changes to events after Sly 3.

A fan based project does have a lot of rules that can looped around if done right.

Not saying my idea is perfect, but TIT did have some things I disagree with. I loved the first two levels and then the story kind of fell apart.

Do you see Sly Cooper going back to a life of crime?

The thing is, I see Sly and Carmelita together, but with ALL of the crimes Sly did could he just date an Interpol Officer and wipe his hands off and be good? I don't think so.

The setting after Sly faking his amnesia state, it becomes difficult. But I've been working on concepts. Been weighing what is the best one.

Have you watched Savo Central's idea?

Yes. Many times. I'm a fan.

I only question Bentley walking again and that's it. And that's minor. The rest, I have no issue. It all looks good and I like the team working on Sly 4 Deceit Of Thieves.

Favorite Sly Ancestor

Rioicchi by far.

Are you making a Sly game too?

I don't have the art talent, tools, and resources. I'm just a writer. Plain and simple.

Would you write a Sly Thieves In Time 2?

I'll think about it.

Guys, let me know if interested. I will consider it. I have before. I had an idea about Egypt, just not being able to bridge the gap after that.

I really just had Egypt and Sly's Dad figured out only to a point. The rest so far I got nothing.

And don't even get me started with Penelope.

What is Sly 4 - Back To Action ?

Theory 1 -

It's much different than some think. There are concepts to play around with as what path Sly chooses. There are an array of paths.

The main question and concern when in a comment section, around a table talking to fan, etc. Is "Would Sly go back to crime?" Or "Is Sly done with crime?"

So the Sly 3 ending is really Carmelita takes Sly's word for it and accepts it. Yes, they have a thing for each other. I get that. But isn't there more to it?
