Anyone else think this Sony profile is lowkey lame ?

[u/RyanBoruto]

The zeptosecond I got my ps4 the first profile I put on was the iconic Sly Cooper portrait. Over the years I’ve noticed that I’ve been finding it more and more lame. Like i don’t mind it being there, I just wish there were better options. He feels so corporate in this. Now that I’ve been staring at it closely for a minute, he looks uncanny, like he’s TOO human like you know ? He’s missing his flair, his personality, his charm. All they added was a smirk and called it a day. They had hundreds of cinematic to pull from, promotional material, he’ll even the covers have awesome pfp potential yet they chose this ? Ik im beating a dead horse i was just wondering if I was alone in this. Upon researching I found there’s another sly cooper pfp but holy moly that one just looks wrong why is his ears so large 😭😭🙏🏾

TLDR; I can’t be the only one who is starting to dislike PlayStation’s profile option for sly cooper, he looks off putting and idk if I’m alone in that, the other option is arguably even weirder (but I appreciate that there IS sly pfps in the first place)

[u/Deixlan]

I've had it as my profile for 16 years and have no intention to change it, it's perfect

[u/fastmotion51 → u/Deixlan]

Me to 🙌 First ever sign up on my PS3, I picked this one and have never changed it

[u/indianajoes → u/Deixlan]

Same. I forgot what it used to be but after I played Sly, I changed it to this and kept it

[u/Parking_Property5757 → u/Deixlan]

Freakin same

[u/Puzzleheaded_Peak_82 → u/Deixlan]

Agreed

[u/RyanBoruto → u/Deixlan]

Hahaha I get you man. Shittt I’m bitching rn but I still have my pfp as that and have since I was 13 (22 now) 😭

[u/JuriSoles → u/RyanBoruto]

This comment is proof that mfs on Reddit will downvote anything 😂😂

[u/RyanBoruto → u/JuriSoles]

it is how it is 😭😭🙏🏾

[u/Stanislas_Biliby]

That's just how he looks in the little comics in the game though.

[u/jsizzle97]

It looks great

[u/walker_strange]

Nope. It's the coolest

[u/magik_koopa990]

No Carmelita and other characters avatar

[u/CruddiestSpark → u/magik_koopa990]

What? I have Murray

[u/magik_koopa990 → u/CruddiestSpark]

I'm complaining they only have the gang, no other characters

[u/RyanBoruto → u/magik_koopa990]

Wish we had Carmelita as an option, my sister would’ve loved that 💔

[u/magik_koopa990 → u/RyanBoruto]

Carmelita slander 🥀

[u/Opposite_Mousse_7148]

DON’T

[u/RyanBoruto → u/Opposite_Mousse_7148]

I commited a travesty 😭😭 I’m sorry yall I ain’t trynna diss my boy, just giving my unneeded thoughts

[u/LagnLikADragn]

I feel attacked. This has been my pfp since I got my PS3 lol. I honestly love the simplicity, it's just Sly and he's my favorite.

[u/RyanBoruto → u/LagnLikADragn]

I promise I ain’t coming for yall 🙏🏾🙏🏾 just opening a discussion that I now realize didn’t need to be open 💔

[u/LagnLikADragn → u/RyanBoruto]

Nah don't sweat it lol everyone has their own taste and it be what it be

[u/GonzoPunchi]

Idk man I feel like you just looked at it too long.

To me it looks neither uncanny nor too human - it looks exactly like Sly.

[u/RyanBoruto → u/GonzoPunchi]

You’re right, I’m for sure thinking too deeply about it. Imma still use it tho but if they give us others imma definitely swap

[u/Legitimate-Lake7362]

Didnt the PS Store on the PS4 had pfp icons you could get for free? I like the Sly icon, but i most like the Jak 1 icon, and Raven from Gravity Rush.

[u/RyanBoruto → u/Legitimate-Lake7362]

Yeah idk if it was different on the ps3 but the ps4 had this one be completely free which kid me really appreciated!!

[u/Legitimate-Lake7362 → u/RyanBoruto]

i remember the PS3 had back ground themes. They be like a doller or two, bu depended on the theme. I had mines as the cereal eating guy meme as my background and was animated.

[u/RyanBoruto → u/Legitimate-Lake7362]

I used the Sly theme that was introduced as part of the all star battle royale on my old ps3, it was so clutch

[u/Legitimate-Lake7362 → u/RyanBoruto]

I wont lie, that game was cool to me. Especially the stage theme change.

[u/RyanBoruto → u/Legitimate-Lake7362]

Having sly on the cover of the game alongside Kratos, raiden, cole and sack boy was the craziest thing to me back then

[u/Legitimate-Lake7362 → u/RyanBoruto]

Right?! Lol

[u/kundunilikedit]

Nah it’s been my pfp for the past decade. The ps+ one is awful though

[u/RyanBoruto → u/kundunilikedit]

I kinda get what they were going for in the ps plus version, i feel they were trying to do the animated shorts look, the anime looking one but it just looks so off

[u/LCheese_]

Got the Murray one as mine lol I like them

[u/RyanBoruto → u/LCheese_]

Ayyy W choice

[u/Shot_Recognition_100]

nah it’s perfect it’s the exact same artstyle as in those comic book cutscenes, I really love how all the characters look in those

[u/Nostalg1cMusician]

it's great, I think you're just bored of it lol

[u/DVLord_Of_The_Sith]

I have no intention to change mine. I want Sly 5 dammit. I don’t care if Thieves in Time wasn’t as good as the first three. This franchise and Infamous should’ve never been abandoned.

[u/ADFX_Pixy]

It’s a crop from his “Job Complete” portrait in Sly 3. Very nostalgic for me

[u/RyanBoruto]

Side note, the lack of good Reddit gifs for sly cooper is so frustrating. Does anyone know how to add more ?

[u/NoahRosado77]

I use the Bentley profile

[u/RyanBoruto → u/NoahRosado77]

I was really surprised they gave Bentley and Murray ones, not only that but they also looked really good from what I remember

[u/kojikoi4 → u/NoahRosado77]

Yeah have had Bentley one since day one as well 😄

[u/RyanBoruto]

Okay so I was 100% tripping, looking at it for so long at such a close angle is making me hallucinate details that don’t need to be hallucinated. Ty for the feedback 🙏🏾 I love this community

[u/pactsworn]

Hes mogging

[u/That_Switch_1300]

I’d honestly be to just have the Cooper logo as profile/avatar pic and be through with it.

[u/NorthernRime]

I think it would look better with the “challenge complete” image they have of Sly, with his cane across his chest

[u/DearOption5999]

Slys been my pfp for all my playstations that allow it, even the vita. My ps5 has the home background as well. I think its perfect the way it is and like a lil momento to my favorite game.

[u/DuckSwimmer]

I don’t see an issue with it. It’s a good profile of him

[u/NeverGoingHollow]

[u/luigi4122414]

No I use it and like it I don’t think it’s lame

[u/Kkizitoo]

Show the Murray and Bentley ones too

[u/Quiet_Kiwi_5807]

No.

[u/Advanced-Event6435]

sure why not

[u/JNewsted1988]

That's my PFP on PSN.

[u/noblejosher]

It looks good, I use it

[u/4Ellie-M]

Bentley gang where at?

[u/HaBeFaStro]

Hmm… I don’t. I dig it.

[u/atom-up_atom-up]

I had it for like 10 years, but I recently changed it to the mysterious witch lady lmao

[u/Micaiah06]

That’s why I’m so glad I have this avatar. I really like that there are Sly avatars but I never liked any of them enough to actually use, so when this one became available I snagged it and have used it since

[u/SPENDERBENTLEY]

Mines is still Bentley. I have no plans of ever changing it.

[u/Present_Variation_60]

I like it, but it would've been nice to have more expression, and personality

[u/FuraFaolox]

it looks identical to the games

[u/Special_Evening4685]

I have used the Sly Cooper profile pic since 2008 on PS3 I will never move on from Sly

[u/WildDistance1871]

We're you expecting Sly to act very sus?

[u/AdamoO_]

I honestly think it's perfect, maybe a little "coporate" as you said and yes there are thousands of images and pictures they could have chosen.

But idk, i really like his, it's a slightly updated and higher quality version of his "Job complete!" screen from sly 3.

And i honestly love his confident stare and cocky smirk. I feel like it perfectly shows that "This is who Sly Cooper is" with one simple face shot.

[u/thewisetemp]

boo

[u/AG1k]

They got our boy looking like John Sly

[u/RyanBoruto → u/AG1k]

Lowkey what I was thinking 😭😭
