your imperseonation of bently is terrifyingly good

I honestly put Sly 2 in 1st place because it was the longest game and some of the moments can hit you in the feels like when Bentley lost Sly and Murry because of Neyla Murry losing his van and the rebirth of Clockwork sort of i mean a lot of story telling in that game

Also sly three had multiplayer!! Nobdoy remembers this I swear. You play as sly or carmalita and you guys just chase each other and mess around its a lot of fun.

2:52 That Bentley voice is hilarious yet spot on. 🤣

I agree with 100% with everything from Penelope character development in the 4th game being the worst thing about the game with sly 3 being sly 2 but better also your very good as Bentley also fun fact David scully who voiced Dimitri also voiced rajan, octavio, and lefwee.

No mention of sly 4 load times is a real glaring omission, assuming he played on the ps streaming service thing cause theres no way anyone who played the ps3 version wouldn't mention it

Personally i liked playing as Panda King but great list, really 2 or 3 can go either way for me but this was great. Love to see a boss ranking for this series if your considering it

Hope we get a boss ranking after this.

do each individual episode next!

Overall I agree with your take on this. I do like Sly 1 more than 4, but that was my first experience with the franchise playing it at a cousins house. I remember it so vividly, I was so bad at the game when I was like 8 when it came out. Sly 3 was the first one I actually owned for myself and honestly it’s my favorite too. I think the story of 2 is better, but 3 is just way more fun to play in my opinion.

Interesting bro my fav was sly 2 personally I loved the recon missions it was a different approach for its era. Sly 3 would be my number 2, I dnt like the fact that they dnt have bottles. And for some reason I feel like the color pallet used when making the game is better on 2 then 3. I had overall better fun on 2 dnt get me wrong 3 was amazing but 2 was my favorite.

The general zhao fight is my favorite boss fight in the entire series

i actually like the recon missions,plays into the whole tactical espionage aspect

Sly 3 made a good use of the Camera. Chief Photographer for General Tsao. Capturing Evidence of Don Octavio polluting. I think that's baso it?

And capturing the ghosts in Sly 2 with it was good

Sly 2 was the  first game I EVER beat, but my heart will always belong to Sly 3.

The one thing I cannot forgive Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves for is:

The only small call back to the Panda King's "Flame Fu" that he spent supposed years to create and master...Is just a singular sideways chop. An instant kill move cause of fire and all, but very lack luster and clunky due to having to stop to do it. You would think a MARTIAL ARTIST who was doing Cartwheels - spinning on the crook of his neck and back - and two other chop attacks that were snappy and quick: wouldn't take an eternity to just go "I swipe at you...reluctantly. Now burn for my transgressions. And your folly for getting close to me." Like you would expect him to almost be on the brawling style of The Murray doing fast chop combos while being able to run around. Where was the strength that was THE PANDA KING! None of the guards should even be daring to approach him once he got into action cause everyone should be PETRIFIED of the man! "Nope, this is our General's problem. Not mine." should have been their mentality. His sections are short enough as it is that he could have been kitted out as THE BOSS CHARACTER he should have been. They could have gone ALL OUT with Panda in his sections knowing his was OP even if his primary goal was to be an explosives expert only. He should have been making his presence known as the threat he was by being a One Man Army for a segment to agitate Tsao.

Personally prefer 2 over 3, but it is very close. I do 100% agree with everything you said about 4, that game does get too much hate.

2:51 INSANE impersonation

This game has a special place in my heart my childhood hope for Sly 5 the fanbase is there for sure

YOU MASSIVE CHAD, 3 is better then 2, you can think otherwise and that’s okay, we’re all wrong sometimes 💕
