The Sly Collection packages three games plus

The Sly series has been gussied up and rereleased in a single package as The Sly Collection. The first game, Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus, lays down the basics and gradually introduces many of the powers the ring-tailed thief will rely on in the next two games. In the second game, Sly and his gang try to retrieve the broken remains of their robotic owl nemesis, Clockwerk, while in the third the group recruits other thieves - some former enemies - to break into a vault.
