Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus

Overview

Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus (known as Sly Raccoon in Europe and Australia) was created by Sucker Punch Productions and released on the PlayStation 2 in 2002. The game focuses on master thief Sly Cooper and his gang, Bentley the Turtle and Murray the Hippo, as they seek out the Fiendish Five to recover his family's "Thievius Raccoonus", a book with the accumulation of all of Sly's ancestors' thieving moves. The game was praised for using a variation on cel-shading rendering, which is used to create a film noir feel, while still rendered as a hand-drawn animated movie, though criticized for being too short.

The trilogy was released on physical disc, while each individual game was released in digital form on PSN.
