It's true! I just beat the game, and at the end I unlocked a bonus: The opening video in Japanese! And, it's done a little differently, closely mimicking an anime style!

Yeah, it's one of the funnest platformers I've played in a while. Basically, you play as a racoon thief named Sly Cooper, a descendent of a family of good thieves. Instead of ripping off normal people, in which there would be no fun or dignity, they choose to rob master criminals. The family has a book passed down through generations known as the Thievius Racoonus, with which anyone who reads it learns to be a Master Thief. When Sly was a kid, a group of villians called the Fiendish Five showed up at his doorstep, did away with his father, and stole the book, ripping it to pieces and dissapearing to different corners of the world to use the contents of the book for evil. As a grown up Sly, you travel the world with your friends Murray and Bently to each villians hideout to recover the pieces of the book and defeat each one of the Fiendish Five. You have to be sneaky, dodging lazer traps, sneaking past villians, ect. If Metal Gear Solid were a platform game, this is probably what it would be like. Highly Recommended.

I don't play too many platformers, but I will check it out if I have some extra money sometime.

Healing hands of God have mercy on our unclean souls
once again. Jesus Christ, Light of the World, burning
bright within our hearts forever. Freedom means love
without condition, without beginning or an end. Here's
my heart, let it be forever Yours, only You can make
every new day seem so new.

Nail pierced hands they run with blood
A splitting brow forced by the thorns
His face is writhing with the pain yet it's comforting to me

Do so. This game flat out rocks. My sister, who doesn't really like games, watched me play this title for three hours.
