    Sly Cooper 2 is the BEST GAME in the amazing series. The ability to play as the whole gang was fun especially as Murray. Each character has there specialties Bentley you can place bombs and use sleep darts. Murray is the brawn and is fun just to get in all out brawls with the guards in the levels. While Sly is probably the all around best because you can go anywhere and fight everyone but Sly Cooper 2 is the BEST GAME in the amazing series. The ability to play as the whole gang was fun especially as Murray. Each character has there specialties Bentley you can place bombs and use sleep darts. Murray is the brawn and is fun just to get in all out brawls with the guards in the levels. While Sly is probably the all around best because you can go anywhere and fight everyone but you can't fight as good as Murray. The missions are great every mission is fun and different the inly being the hacking missions. The Episodes or levels start with sly then end with an Operation that use the whole gang doing something like one operationg you do something as Bently then go to Murray then finish with Sly then a boss battle with one of the characters.The graphics in this game work perfectly and are very pretty.The cutscenes are good even the picture ones with narration. This game is better then Ratchet and Jak put together.… Expand

    This is my favorite game of all time to this day. Excellent story, graphics, gameplay, and sandbox elements. This game was a complete blast to playthrough. The characters are very charming and it has a deep story for being a kid's games. I'm 15 and I still enjoy this game A LOT. I highly recommend you get this for the Playstation 2 or Playstation 3!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. My personal favorite in the series. i remember when i was little seeing it and getting hyper over the idea of finally using Bentley and Murray as well, but i never knew it would end up being the best game ever. The plot is amazing and engaging, the characters are lovable (or hatable in all the right ways), the missions are much more dynamic and fun, it isnt constantly about keys anymore. Definitely recommend getting this amazing game.… Expand

    2 years later Sucker Punch doubled the length, tripled the characters, improved the music, sound, story and gameplay. Missions are somehow even more varied than the first game, characters somehow 100 times better and it very rarely gets at all repetitive. It is a game that should however be played in small bursts because it can be very frustrating.

Each level culminates in a heist and a boss battle.

    Pros:
    -varied missions keep the game fresh and free of monotony.
    -The game is stealth then platformer then action adventure in that order.
    -The character are extra quirky and have more personality than the last game
    -The game is much much much longer this time around. About 20 hours.
    -Each world/level has collectibles, you can pick pocket people for more money, and there are hidden artifacts you can find to get extra money to buy moves.
    -You mostly play as Sly, the raccoon, though there are also Murray (hippo) and Bently (turtle) levels. They each have a different feel but imo Sly's ability to climb around makes traversing the worlds a lot more easier and subsequently it is very relieving to be back using him.

    Cons:
    -The boss battles aren't as unique as the first game. Most of them boil down to learning the boss's moves then dodging them and hitting him/her in the back.
    -The voice acting is improved but still at times feels amaturish.

    Conclusion: A lot better than the first game. You should try it out.    … Expand

    "Sly 2" has plenty of gameplay polish, great visuals, an interesting story, charming characters and, most importantly, it's just a lot of fun to play. You couldn't really ask for much more out of a 3D platformer.
    The only (very minor) downside is that, despite having a nice balance in length (it's not too "long" and not too "short"), it's not a very difficult adventure.
    Even so, "Sly 2" has it all, and it's certainly one of the PS2's best games!

You sneak around guards makes it stealth like. The next character is Murray or 'The Murray' is a lot different. He's not like Sly. He can't climb or even under tables. He could kill guards in two hits. So he's the one you want to kill people with. Bentley is the character you won't play. The only time I play Bentley is when I need to do mission with him. He's every weak and kill guards neither whacking them with your dart gun or putting them into sleep a planting a bomb on them. He does have interesting gadgets though. The way you play the game is by, you in a open world. You have to mission to beat the level. This is longest Sly game by far. The story is really good. You could unlock power ups or gadgets. Some you have to get like a paraglider and a alarm clock. There's also clue bottles. Getting 30 per level, gets you a special power up or gadget, but only with Sly. By getting power up, you need coins. You get coins by breaks objects, kill guards, or pickpocketing. Then go to TheftNet, in the safe house. The music is very well compose.

    Great game sequel takes what worked in the first and expanded on it both in story telling and gameplay and trimed the fat from the first game. The game also looks significantly better than the first and also expanded the idea of being a thief with heists rather then a regular platformer with thieving elements. Over all good game

    Increíble secuela que mejoró en todos los aspectos a su predecesor de PlayStation 2: Sly Raccoon.

    Implementó un sistema de misiones de atracos en un "mundo abierto" que marcó al resto de la saga.
    Extremedamente divertido y único, con personajes increíblemente carismáticos e inolvidables, que marcó muchísimas infancias (incluida la mía).

    Muy recomendado.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Sly Cooper es una de las sagas mas originales que tiene PS2 teniendo en cuenta que el público al que va destinado comprende de una edad entre 6-12 años. Con una historia que va cogiendo fuerza cada vez mas y mas hasta el punto en el que te das cuenta de que es una cosa seria. Un mapeado libre aunque con pocos detalles pero dando la posibilidad de explorar todo el terreno posible, Un diseño que a simple vista parece mediocre, pero con una estetica en cada ciudad que hace que coja mucha fuerza. Aunque hay algunas misiones que se hacen pesadas la mayoría no son así por el hecho de ser tan versátiles, tan distintivas la una de la otra. Algo que me jode es el cliché que tiene la policia (Carmelita) y el protagonista (Sly) , NO puedes desarrollar a un personaje que se distinga por ser tan fuerte ante todos como lo es Carmelita y que después se enamore de SU PRINCIPAL ENEMIGO, eso destruye a todo el personaje.
    La principal razón por la que he decidido hacer la review es por el final. ESPECTACULAR. ¿A quién se le ocurre dejar a uno de los personajes PRINCIPALES con una discapacidad y a otro con una depresión? Solo a estos genios, un enfoque muy maduro pese a ser un juego de niños que te hace reflexionar cuando lo vuelves a jugar más mayor.

    PD: Me jode darle un 8 porque a mi parecer tiene un 8.5 pero la pagina no deja dar decimales y tampoco le voy a dar un 9 porque no es tan buen juego.    … Expand

    Great game wish they make new versions for the new consoles out there, ps5 about to get released in November 2020 and this game just disappeared.

    R.I.P this was one of the top 3 games (Hitman bloodmoney, Sly Series, King kong) i used to play in 2006.

    Sly 2 takes everything right about the original and expands upon it, amazing game
    A simple yet good story and mission is once again the backbone of this game but it is even more fleshed out than the original Sly game
    Fun is the word I’d use to describe this game

    To this day there have been few games like Sly Cooper 2, in every way a flawless game, from the graphics that have aged well, the unforgettable soundtrack, fully interactive gameplay, charismatic characters and a satisfying script, sly cooper is certainly a must play for all ages and shapes.

    Best game in the series! The story is almost too well written for a kids game. Playing as sly and jumping around really makes you feel like a master thief. And I also love the way you pull of big heists at the end of every chapter.

    This has such a noir, tongue-in-cheek mood. Sly 2 is one of those landmarks in aesthetic games that you might play just so someone watches you play it and its aesthetic looks cool. Its storyline and gameplay aren't that interesting but its characters are to fall in love with - Sly, Dmitri, Carmelita, Bentley, and its Arabian Nights graphics with its criminal suaveness.

    Sly 2 Band of Thieves is one of the greatest games ever made(in my opinion). It is my favorite game in the series and it is my favorite game of all time.

    Being able to play as all three members further fleshes out the mission variety - I couldn't tell you the last time I've had so much unadulterated fun playing a game. [Nov 2004, p.126]

    This is exactly how a sequel should be done, and if there's anything wrong with it, it's only that it makes you wonder how Sucker Punch can possibly make as big a leap with the next game as they did with Sly 2.
