The Sly Collection launching at $40 this fall

by Richard Mitchell on Jul 21st 2010 4:20PM

Sony has priced the upcoming The Sly Collection at $39.99, identical to the price point given to Sony's previous HD remake release, God of War Collection.

As previously reported, the collection features remastered, high-definition versions of all three PS2 Sly Cooper titles, along with 3D support, Trophies and a couple of PlayStation Move minigames. Even without all the newfangled technological additions, you're getting three well-received games for $40. That's a pretty good deal. Maybe even a steal.

yay!

"That's a pretty good deal. Maybe even a steal."

Oh, haha ha. I see what you did thar.

Honestly though, I've never played any of the Sly games. Does that make me a bad person?

@KenobiEagle

Yes.

@KenobiEagle

not at all.. i didn't play them for the longest time on the dismissal that they are "kid's games", but i got into it one day, and they are a lot of fun really...

i know it seems like a big marketing ploy... but i really love this HD remakes of old games idea.. there's many times where i think to myself "Gee golly gee, i wonder what this series would've been like if they had the graphical power of today?"

although i didn't enjoy the GoW one... but that's because i really just don't like those games at all.

@KenobiEagle

It does, though I'm a bad person right along with you. :( But don't worry, they're giving us a chance to repent with this collection, we better not pass it up! :P

@KenobiEagle I didnt play them either, but I am going to now.

@cmurph

Don't say he's a bad person just because he hasn't played it. Maybe Chuck Norris roundhoused him into oblivion. Then again, he WOULD be too busy playing Sly Cooper to do that....

@KenobiEagle Hardi har har har.

@cmurph
thats not a excited yes let bison show you how excited he is about this

Nice....and while $40 is a good price....I think I will wait....not even a month or 2 after GoW collection came out it dropped to $29....sure its just $10 but in an already packed Holiday season, every little bit counts.

@Chris DPSN AggieCEO XBLThe Aggi

I have to agree I want to pick it up but I would rather pay $29 for it.

ssssssssold.

Oh dammit. At the Gamespot near me I can get all 3 of these games on the PS2 for the low price of $20. But, the trophy whore in me wants the PS3 version. Maybe I'll just wait for a price drop. Decisions decisions....

/rant

@Grey

I actually already own all 3, but same, the inner Trophy Collector wants to get the PS3 version - I mean, 3 PLATINUM TROPHIES!

That, as well as the fact that this was my favorite series for the PS2, and I've always wanted to play it on the PS3.

@The Harbinger of Pie Honestly, it's BS like Platinum trophies that we can't bring our saves over to a friend's house. Got to have these ridiculous things for the OCD crowd.

@thisredengine

What do you mean? :O

As long as the file isn't copy protected, you can always just copy the Save onto a Flash Drive and take it over a friend's house, and BAM! There you go.

@Grey

Trophies...
HD...
3D...
Move...
Presumable 1 disk...

I know what I would get!

@Grey

I'm guessing you meant to say gamestop right? Unless gamespot open up some stores and I didn't know.

@Grey
@thisredengine

What are you talking about? As someone stated above you can most certainly copy your save file onto any USB storage device and bring it to a friend's house. There are a few games that copyright save files (for reasons beyond me) but the vast majority of games don't.

Keep in mind that save files are tied to the PSN account they are created with so if you give your save file to a friend and he plays it on his PSN account, trophies will NOT be awarded later in the game when they normally would be. In fact, the sound will go off and the message will pop up but it will say something like "Trophy not earned" or something. I've seen it before when my friend was playing with my Trine save file and it was pretty funny.

Three guaranteed platinum's for me. I have all the games on PS2, but I can't wait for this HD update simply because I have not played them yet lol.

Nice. Now all I need is a Ratchet & Clank collection and Jak & Daxter collection.

@patboy2008 I think we have to wait for the rumbling of a new game for PS3 of those to come before that....I fully expect to see a new Sly Cooper title on PS in the next year or so...

I've played the first one, really liked it. This will be the perfect chance to play that one again then the rest.

Team ICO. Nao.

I second this.

@Zoot Suit Jedi Grammar Hammer En

3rd.

I third it.

DAMMIT too late. Whatever.

I forward the motion.

@Zoot Suit Jedi Grammar Hammer En
I fourth this!

@RustyJack
I'm sorry, but you can't forward it.
Only three are allowed

I've never played any of the Sly Cooper games, so I'll definitely get this collection.

@TheMichaelJackson
The people at Gamestop will be really freaked out when they see you walking around Michael.

Wow, only $40!
That's gold Jerry, GOLD!!!

Quite probably one of the most underrated games on the PS2.

The PS2 version of Sly 3 already had 3D support.

I loved Sly Cooper, will definitely get this.

Yay! This will be the second game I get for the my George Foreman Grill-Sized PS3.

@subatomicL

STFU & GTFO

@subatomicL

HA! I got the slim one on Black Friday (it should be a national holiday) with Batman: AA and InFamous.

@subatomicL

That's sad. The last time I counted I had 55 games on disc and 70+ PSN games. I still have a whole bunch of games to buy like Red Dead Redemption, 3D Dot Game Heroes and ModNation Racer to name a few.

@RustyJack good deal. I got the phat one from my brother, cause he upgraded to the thin. But he made sure to not give me any games for it.

@jocaju Well, it's not really that sad. I just can't afford to buy a bunch of games for it and my PS2 library is pretty large. I got Little Big Planet, but it's not that great cause the controls are rubbish. Seriously, cannot wait for this one cause I loved the platforming of the Ratchet and Clank series. And I completely missed out on the Sly Cooper series the first time around.

Never played them on PS2. Definitely tempting!

Day 1. Just finished R&C a crack in time and would love hd remakes of all their games as well as the onimusha games that were on ps2. I really hope we get Sly on psp or at least on psn if they aren't doing a full fledged ps3 version.

What ever happened to Onimusha? I loved that series.

@DrScientist

I also loved it. Considering Capcom hasn't mad mention of it this gen I guess it's just buried and done with. Darn shame.

GameStop has known this for a while. If there's one thing I've learned it's that GameStop is usually right when it comes to these things. Speaking of GameStop, they're having a sale of 10%-50% on new and used games. With free shipping too.

awesome. especially for trophy whores. 3 platinums for $40 is too hard to resist for them.

@Sly C
Congratulations Sly. You must be very proud.

@Sly C

Trophy whores are probably stoked. But, any gamer should be stoked because they are getting three games remastered in HD for 2/3 the cost of a current new game. This is also great for people with PS3 Slims who maybe want to play some of the great PS2 games.
