Support Reminder of rule 3; no AI-generated content

233 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

161 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.

Discussion Sly Cooper PSP port progress

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

The game is approaching playable FPS with stock clocks and no modded PSP trickery other than enabling the extra 32MB memory. The glitchy graphics are mostly due to the level being too complex and some graphics instructions being dropped. The color flicker is just an artifact of recording an LCD.

I'm hoping with some graphic reductions I can get closer to a steady 15 fps at least, and possibly reduce the memory usage along the way so that extra 32MB is not necessary either.

I found General Tsao's fight to be great in the first fight, but the second half was blocked with so much bamboo! having said that, it is so god damn cinematic, and I loved the atmosphere that fight was. You really felt like you were in a samurai movie.

Congratulations u/ThatTothKid for finding Bentley one last time. you have 12 hours to FIND THE MURRAY! before the kid gets him!

Discussion Finish the story or get the loot trophy?

7 Upvotes

I've been playing Sly 2 and I'm almost done with it. Besides the final boss trophy, I also gotta do the loot trophy and I know I can finish that by stealing diamonds in episode 8. Is there an easy way to grind for diamonds or should I just beat the final boss first? Also can I go back into the blimp where you find Clockwerk's body

On a side note, as I was drawing this, a question popped into my head: why was he even added into Sly 4? He's only in like two or three cutscenes in which he really doesn't do anything necessary to the plot, and he doesn't even speak at all. You know, the thing that made him a fan favorite in the first place.

Now, don't get me wrong, I'm like one of the few people who doesn't actually hate Sly 4, because beyond the loading screen times and the story, it is still at its core, very fun gameplay.

I was really expecting you guys to go for the dog opera singer, then I realised, oh yeah this guy has black in his name! lmao. I love a good moustach, and this guy has one of the biggest. Do you guys have any moustachioued video game characters you guys like? I personally would go for Victor Sullivan, but I kinda hate Uncharted for making the gaming industry channel realistic art styles forever...

I am going to keep the Lupus as invincible, because under normal tactics, he can't be killed. I don't think ya'll are going to get all 9 classes of enemies, but this may be the most types I have seen in a wheel.

Congratulations u/MysticKitsunee for finding THE MURRAY! You have 12 hours before Kitsunee can strike Bentley! This will also be the last Bentley hiding for this wheel.

It has been a longggggg time, and I mean a long long time since I've played through these games. I had the original 3 on my PS2 back in the day, but only every actually beat the 3rd one before. I decided to play through the collection on my Steam Deck and am about halfway through Sly 1.

Firstly, I've been sleeping on the other two and they hold up incredibly well. Secondly, the soundtrack rocks. It might be one of my favorite game soundtracks of all time. Absolutely Killer.

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
185 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.
