Story:Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus is a stealth-platformer developed by Sucker Punch Productions and published by Sony Computer Entertainment. Released in 2002 for the PlayStation 2, the game follows Sly Cooper, a skilled raccoon thief, as he and his gang attempt to recover the Thievius Raccoonus, a book containing the secrets of his family's thieving legacy. The gameplay combines stealth, platforming, puzzle-solving, and light combat, and is noted for its cel-shaded visuals and humorous narrative. This game is divided into five worlds, each themed around a particular part of the world and the villain headquartered there. Most worlds are structured as a central hub with entrances to numerous individual levels. Each of the levels has a primary goals which earns the player a key. You must collect all the keys in the world to fight the world's boss. Many of the levels have a platformer structure. The objective of these worlds is to reach the location of the key. There are substantial stealth elements here as the player must dodge searchlights and trips lasers which set off alarms and avoid alerting guards. In addition to the main objective, there are clue bottles to find. Finding all the clues in a level allows you to open a safe with a page from the Thievius Raccoonus which grants a new ability of some sort. After getting this, there is also a master thief sprint where the player must get from the start of a level to the exit within a time limit.Show more

This is one of the first videogames I ever neared 100% completion in. I wasn't quite good enough to do all of the master thief sprints, but I got everything else. This game in particular, even if it's not the best of the series, will always be special to me. I adore it to this very day and will always do so.
This is where it all started, one of the best-looking games of its generation. Sly and the gang are some of the most iconic video game people and storied PlayStation icons. All three of these games are gold in story and platinum and presentation. But as the origin of the team, story, and vibe, this is where it's all from. If you want to play a game series full of Pizzazz, this is where it all starts.

Sly Cooper, Toy Story 2 and Harry Potter (PC EA version). The 3D Platformers that defined my childhood as a little gamer. I really wish this could be added as a PC game along with all the other Sly Cooper games. It would be an instant purchase from me.
I couldn't believe that this showed up as an option, This was one of the first games that I played when I got my ps2, a very special console for me given to me by my grandma before passing away as a gift. I used to borrow the game from a friend because my parents couldn't afford to buy it at the time and even though I barely understood anything that was going on in the game because I did not know English yet, I was fascinated by Sly's gameplay and it's world. I currently own the game in my ps3 and got the platinum trophies for the entire collection as is one of my core favorite titles from playstation and I would really like to see it come to PC to enjoy once more.(I also want to do the rhythm part of Mz. Ruby boss fight again lol).

Shaman King: Spirit of Shamans
Shaman King: Spirit of ShamansShaman King: Spirit of Shamans is based on the anime, in which you will complete the first half of the overall story featured within the anime/manga series. This is the first fighting game featured within the series. The graphics seem to reflect other styles seen within the original Gundam Battle Assault, in which you will be playing right-to-left with advanced sprite graphics. Your spirit can also be regularly used within this fighter as to assist you. At random times in battle, the icon of your specific spirit will flash, in which if you press either O or X fast enough, your overall spirit meter will rise. When risen to the highest extent, you can unleash your ultimate. Within this game, three different buttons vary from a weak attack, or a more stronger attack. The combo system seems to range up to the max of 10 in battle. Story mode, Vs mode, and Arcade mode are the three playable modes within this game. In Story mode, you will experience various cutscenes and additional minigames. Arcade mode seems to be the same except for the fact that you will be continuously battling. Of course within Vs mode, you can battle against a friend or a com. Overall within this game, 17 characters are playable (3 of which being different versions of Yoh). It is known that Hao can also be playable, but a Gameshark code is needed. Fortunately, as well within battle, character voices will be experienced rather commonly, in which anime cutscenes will be experienced at times - such as in the intro. Overall, it seems that Shaman King: Spirit of Shamans is the best 2D fighter of its series.

Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon R
Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon RBishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon R is a video game released for the Super Famicom by Bandai in 1993. It serves as a sequel to Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon. Upon starting the game, the player can choose one of 5 characters (2 can be selected for co-op). The game is divided into four levels; each level being divided further into two sub-levels. The player will fight numerous enemies, mostly consisting of default Droids based on their manga incarnations. At the end of each level, a boss must be defeated to proceed. Pressing a special button makes the character use a devastating attack that kills all lesser enemies on screen and causes significant damage to a boss character, although the use of the attack is limited. Bonus items can be picked up from the ground or found in breakable objects, usually in the form of food items that replenishes the life meter to varying degrees. Chibiusa Mode is synonymous with an "Easy Mode". Chibiusa's sprite is too short to be hit by most attacks, and the enemies are also made easier to beat. There is also bonus Battle Mode, which acts as a 1v1 arcade fighter for 2 players. Selecting this mode with only one player allows it to work as a training mode, with the other character remaining motionless.
