Played it as a kid and it remained stuck in my mind ever since. It has great soundtrack and interesting gameplay, where you convert enemies to your side and then switch between them to use their weapons.

I've played a demo of this when I was a kid. The art style and gameplay made a great impression on me that I remember the game 'til this day. For a very long time I didn't know the name of this game until few months back when I stumbled upon it on a random website.
Both my brother and myself used to play this when we were kids & I'd really like to play it again. We only ever had the demo version that would only let you play the first two or so levels. Does anyone else remember the little ghosts with the hats? The robots you could use? The enemies you could recruit to your side? The nurses that could heal you? Those days were a lot of fun and hopefully one day we can play again.

The story takes place two years after Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus. In the first game, Sly was becoming a professional thief, but in Band of Thieves, he is a professional thief, so he retains all of the moves from the first game.

Players might start a level as Sly, and then after completing a particular task, players switch to Bentley, and Murray, respectively.
