Features:

Epic boss battles, high action, and new stealth moves provide the deepest and most thrilling Sly experience to date!



Humorous time travel storyline and engaging puzzles



A variety of playable characters await; each with their own unique play style

This looks really good. Havent played the first ones, so will def pick up the collection before then, however of all the games from E3, this one is in my top 3 most interesting!

Game looks like its still run on the PS2 engine but in HD... hmm :/

I recon its more to do with the graphic style than being the same engine?

You're right about the graphic style Waylander. The devs themselves said that the game was designed to look like previous incarnations. The thing about Sly Cooper is that it uses a very solid colour palette for its cel shading. I actually think it looks quite nice (would be better with HD footage) because of how colourful it can become.

I think its a good move: Sony could use more of these graphic styles in a lineup which is more based on realism.

Yeah, you look at the fire and lightning effects there are you cant say thats just a redo in HD.

I played alot of Sly back in the day and in comparison to the recent HD remake i dont see a Huge difference but if the Dev say differently then ill wait till the final product is available.

And your right, the effects look a little different but i was epecting something like a Star Fox adventures type of look.

Really need to find myself a hard copy of crash 3... Damn that game was good. And if i remember correctly you could finish it 105%!

Yea,

I still got my Crash 1, 2 and 3 hardcopys.
Crash 2 is still my favourite of the lot.. just love that game!

I've got 1 and 2, although I have played 3. Have to say I thought 2 was the "worst" one as the first was really challenging and completely fresh and the third just had so much new stuff it was crazy.

My first crash was 2 so it my be a biased opinion but i didnt enjoy crash 1 but 2 blew me away when i was younger.

3 is awesome though.

Haha yeah, I guess we're both coming from a biased opinion. Crash 1 was the first PS1 game I ever owned.

Updated header post with the New trailer - This is looking really good!

If I remember what i read in an interview correctly, Sanzaru started developing this "Sly 4" without Sony's knowledge or authorisation - However when they showed the engine and project to Sony, they liked it so much they green lit the project - Hows that for cool?

Sanzaru also handled the Sly Cooper HD Trilogy (which in my opinion is one of the best HD collections out there!) and are now the offical developers of Sly Cooper going forward (However, the Projects are overseen by Sucker Punch ofcourse).

SC:Ti...T is coming to the PSV. The game will support cross platform play, presumably just continuing where you saved data is.

PSVita Announcment trailer

Looks decent. it runs at 30fps as opposed to 60 on the PS3.

Do not really see the point in a PSV release for this but I guess Sly is not a massively popular game. Wonder if they will at least make the HD collection downloadable on the PSV.

Well it runs on the same trphies as the PS3 version so its fully cross compatible - Play on PSv during the day then continue on your PS3 at night! epic, +1 for me as im buying it
