5 Reasons Sly Cooper Is Worthy of a Ratchet & Clank Style Remake

2) The Art Style

Before the future of color and shade created by Borderlands in 2009, Sly Cooper was waving the flag of comic book inspired visuals. Nothing else around looked like Sly Cooper, right down to the unorthodox animal trio of a raccoon, hippo, and turtle.

The world of Sly was a noir painting in motion. Its comic book inspirations ran deep, all the way down to the “thwacks” and “pows” that blasted out of defeated enemies. Just thinking about this style remade for the PS4 could give one chills, like modern weather effects and sharper textures at a crisp 60 fps. Though, one element they shouldn’t alter too much is the game’s charming comic strip cutscenes. Those are perfect.
