This was the first Sly Cooper game i played. The way Clockwerk was presented in this game was one heck of an introduction. Making him come more of like a monster than in the prior game.
"The Clockwerk Wings... the symbol of my enemy. If you saw the wings silhouetted against the night sky, it was already too late for you... especially if your name was 'Cooper'."
Can you imagine how many innocent people who have the same surname were killed despite not having no relationship or association to the cooper raccoons? Just yikes.
Im not sure guys, but I believe Bentley is the MVP of this whole game. He made all-in-one in this game, something not even sly could. He planned every single mission He hacked and used traps against foes. He saved his friends all alone, and first steps first, he learned how to drive. Indeed bentley, the best symbol of friendship. Oh, he lost his legs? Sly 3 and 4, he kick ass in that wheelchair. This guy is unstoppable!
You know...I really enjoyed the game as it was, but what always sold me on the game was the villains, Clockwerk in particular...I always found him fascinating, both as a direct enemy and as the indirect enemy in the Clockwerk Parts. The music is befitting of him, and is haunting beyond words in both the original and in Band of Thieves. It sticks with you, especially when Sly explains each Clockwerk part's purpose, and the influence the entirety of them have had on his family, and leaves you feeling uneasy, even when you know you have everything under control. I have no particular favorite part, as they all combine to form one of the greatest video game villains in history.
when i was a kid i got mind blown and still dont understand how the fuck neyla just jumped into the thing and her body vanished and she got transformed into the fucking thing, same with clockwerk, why the fuck did he turn himself immortal. Been confused since i was a kid, gg
My favorite thing is how the games show how morally complex but sound sly is. Yeah he's a thief but he's not a monster like the guys he puts behind bars. He's a great example of a morally Grey character
It’s to symbolize how much of a monster Clockwerk has become allowing his own hatred to consume him, the purpose behind it is still a mystery even to this very day. He’s killed plenty of Coopers, who’s to say that he didn’t kill anyone else outside of the lineage as they were mere obstacles in his way. The best example would have been Carmelita if Sly didn’t bust her out of the gas chamber in the first game. Chances are she too would have met a similar fate. Speaking of, the music for Clockwerk in the first game wasn’t this scary because he was treated as this mysterious looming monster that not even Sly knew too much about outside of being the reason he’s an orphan. Here, Sly has more of an idea on who he was and why he was in the backgrounds of each photo of Sly’s ancestors, he’s their omen of death incarnate, and since the parts still have his essence flowing through them, the stakes are as high as they can get, the clock’s ticking. That basically sums it up.
Man, Sly is so passive aggressive about Murray. Sly 1 : Murray, the full-time burden Sly 2 : Murray is our... brawn Sly 3 : I NEED TO GET MURRAY BACK! I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT MURRAY!!!
Every time I watch the ending of Sly 2, I always thought that Sly jumping off the helicopter and paragliding his way down would have been a perfect cutaway to the events of Sly 3 if the development for the game wasn't rushed to be made by 2005. I mean, the overall stories in the Sly trilogy is very good! I think the problem is that in Sly 3's case, the events were compiled via flashbacks when Sly was getting gripped by Dr N's monster.
does the sly series remind anyone else of kill bill? a criminal gang murdering their loved ones & taking revenge on all of them. compare those cutscenes to the o-ren ishii backstory, its a really similar narration style.
It is becouse there was some talk about showing the gang gambling (but it is totaly fine with showing them stealing things). So when they removed the scen when they made the HD.
I heard that the HD/Vita versions of the games are upscales of the PAL release-as it was apparently the last released and less buggy. And for some regions that use PAL, gambling apparently isn’t cool. So it just so happened the HD versions also get no gambling. Not totally sure if that’s correct, but it seemed sort of plausible.
Clockwerk is the best sly cooper villain ever. But um why is a raccons greatest enemy a gaint owl? Also loved the music they played everytime they showed Clockwerk or one of his parts, so evil and scary.
Am I the only one who doesn't really understand why Neyla wanted to be fused with Clockwork? I completely get why Arpeggio wants it, he had a feeble body for years and this was the ultimate prize for someone like him, Neyla was just a little coo coo and wanted a little power, not much for comparison in motivation.
Actually both her and arpeggio wanted it for the immortality. They built a device that would hypnotize All of Paris (thanks to dimitri) to generate hate to power the hate chip that made clockwork immortal
We as the Old Community of Sly Cooper, Old MapleStory and Pokémon who grew-up as Children in Our Childhoods with Sly Cooper, Old MapleStory and Pokémon -> need the WHOLE STORY of EVERYTHING, Cooper Clan, Cooper Lineage = Family + Relatives (Sukulaiset), Connor Cooper + Mother of Sly, Sly Cooper, Bentley, Murray, Carmelita Fox, Villains + Gangs/Groups, why and how did Villains get together to form a Gang/Group, why, where, when and how did ALL/EVERYTHING of the COMPLETE STORY happen! We need at least Sly 8-10 games for the 100% ENTIRE STORY! :) Hopefully Sly Cooper will do well in selling so that We could get New Sly Cooper games, I don't want this series to end and same with Pokémon, but I know some day those both will end, and I think Sly Cooper Series will end much faster, I would like Sly Cooper games to be A LOT longer with a long STORY, and tgat EVERYTHING about the WHOLE STORY of Sly Cooper Series would be told in Sly 8-10 Games! I hope You all have a Good and Fun day! :)
It was actually a reference to the word Clockwork, meaning "a mechanism with a spring and toothed gearwheels, used to drive a mechanical clock, toy, or other device," owing to his mechanical nature.
Dimitri's first crime was just mimicking famous paintings made by artists long dead and selling them for a living. He may have violated the law, but he do anything morally wrong.
2:10 I’ve notice now there’s a hooker background character in a E 10 rated game Ive didn’t notice that as a kid playing this game.The series was really had mature themes for a E rated game
Three things: 1. If the Cooper gang is trying to keep Clockwerk from being reassembled, what was was the point of removing the wings, which were welded onto the statue? 2. The Contessa's husband dies, that makes her... a black widow. Why have I never seen anyone comment on that before? 3. Jean Bison in his backstory. "John" Torrence at the end of his story. Notice any similarities?
It was more of taking them and disposing it properly. Remember how each part had a use? There tail feathers alone make indestructible printing plates for counterfeit money. Destroying them is much more better then leaving them alone so it can fall I to the wrong hands.
And look hiw that turned out, got fucked up in the first, almost got back up due to all the oarts reassembled, and where Neyla would use that and attempt to continue what he started, with the hate that powers her immortality, then destroyed again, entirely and for good, when carmileta destroyed the Hate chip, dude probably never learned his lesson when he waa alive prior to his defeat, and even would Clock-la, so SOL for them.
There’s not much info regarding where he grew up, he was probably apart of a group of South American miners in the 1850’s that travelled up to Canada for gold, and stayed there hundreds of years later to tame the wild north as what Sly said, he picked up some Canadian slang so there’s that. Or his parents where originally from South America and moved up north. That’s also a possibility.
I think Sly said “is it inappropriate to refer to him as a monster? No, not at all.” Otherwise Sly sounds like he doesn’t care about his family at all.
People underestimate my boi Bentley but he was still kicking ass in sly 3 and 4 ❤ I like Murray but he didn't have enough character development. We all just like sly.
I’m really annoyed that they got rid of the cards scene in dimitri defeated in the HD trilogy collection for sly 2. It’s not even that big of a deal in all honesty.
Lmao at the end of the credits: "Ok. That's it. You've seen everything. You won. Go outside." Sucker Punch the savages
xD
I love sucker punch xD
What's this outside he speaks?
Its actually a good message. You won the game. Now go out and get some fresh air
The original "Touch Grass" lol
I love these cutscenes. They're just so fun and artsy. Most games don't have stories or characters this complex.

Sly is like the best Playstation game ever. Childhood memories..
Same!i loved sly 2 and 3 its a shame that they both broke and would be stuck in the loading screen would have loved to play the games again.
These games deserve a remaster for the PS4 and PS5 like L.A. Noire.
It's a tie between Sly Cooper and Spyro the Dragon personally. So many good memories

God the memories! Best game I've ever played man can't even describe it. This began my video game interest.
First game I've ever played, introduced me to the gaming world. My favorite game ever and I still play it to this day.
Played all the Sly games multiple times. This one is still my favorite by a pretty decent margin.
I still prefer Sly 3 just a little bit more. But man, all three of them are so good.
Seriously, what a franchise
I remember Prague (The Countess level) being the scariest thing I had ever played when I was 8-10, lol.
The Contessas' levels were always the creepiest.
"No animals were harmed in the creation of this game." No shit.
Zephyr Prime gotta love their sense of humor.
sly 2 was one of my all time favorite games
mikehtv same
Gotta say I love the music they played each time Clockwerd was mentioned or his parts where brought up so... creepy? Idk that dosnt seem right.
Wished they used it for the final boss tbh.
Foreboding.

What's so cool about the cutscenes in The Sly Cooper Videogames is that it looks an Animated series with Continuity.
she noticed the short flight around town had taken 2 hours, a fact i was clued in to when i saw the Eiffel Tower pass 17 times.
My face. Exploded.
18:45 to 18:57 Best cinematic of the whole game!
Steve McQwark, I agree
That first cutscene after the prologue gives me so much nostalgia
The best game I ever played on the Playstation 2
Best series
I like the "test of FRIENDSHIP" line, and a job selling shoes!? Oh the horror
sometimes i feel like GTA heists were inspired by slys heist. no one else? okay... well one of the best games out there anyway
Eliseo Mendez Nice theory
Sly's heists were actually inspired by movies if you didn't know.
A hero is only as good as their villain, and GOD DAMN are these villains good!!
Man, Sly is so passive aggressive about Murray.
Sly 1 : Murray, the full-time burden
Sly 2 : Murray is our... brawn
Sly 3 : I NEED TO GET MURRAY BACK! I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT MURRAY!!!
A Tangled Web is where things got as serious as a heart attack.
12:25 Clock Work is huge! Looking at him make a cameo in the 4th game, his eyes are giant!
Man the memories are all coming back to me when i was a little kid playing this game.
The first episode is my like one of my favorite levels of any game

Anyone notice that at 3:50 the HD Version just stays on the part of the Cooper Gang driving while in other versions, it shows them in Monaco?

Bentleys rescue ark was by far one of my favorites of this one
Thanks to the info from the Jean Bison section, we can confirm that Sly Cooper's universe is currently in the 1970s.

Don't you think he would if he could?
This should be like a Stanley Kubrick parody, because the villain Clockwerk sounds like it's named after "A Clockwork Orange.😀😉

+Kyle Stubbs They need to remove them so that they can destroy it. If they let him have them, someone other than Sly might steal them and use them.

2. Cuz it was kinda obvious. I got that back when I was a kid. Though then again I was a pretty smart kid...

Clockwerk and Cooper family beef is like Dio with the Jo family beef LMAO
Wait...
If jon bison is from the 1850’s and he was in the ice for 120 years....
Simple math tells us this game is place is in the 1970’s
Figured lots of disco in this game
Also the "spices" are a not-so-subtle parody of the 1970s drug outbreak and "war on drugs"
00:12 damn look at the size or that side mirror
I LOVE ALL SLY GAMES!!
Lol “thanks to global warming” Love that they slipped that in.
This seems like a decade ago but this was the first game I rented from blockbuster.
15:13
No one mentioning Carmelita isn’t wearing pants here? In the game, her pants are blue and connect to her shirt, but here. . .

I just realized that clockwerk was literally attempting genocide on the cooper gang.

he's the best thief ever
One thing I always wondered was, why does Jean Bison, a Canadian sound like an American southerner?
There’s not much info regarding where he grew up, he was probably apart of a group of South American miners in the 1850’s that travelled up to Canada for gold, and stayed there hundreds of years later to tame the wild north as what Sly said, he picked up some Canadian slang so there’s that. Or his parents where originally from South America and moved up north. That’s also a possibility.
Is it okay to refer him as a monster? No it's not lol
I think Sly said “is it inappropriate to refer to him as a monster? No, not at all.”
Otherwise Sly sounds like he doesn’t care about his family at all.
The most terrifying enemy of the Cooper Gang without Murray…driving stick
Poor Bentley learned to drive them immediately got crippled
The thing about the end credits really scary me
People underestimate my boi Bentley but he was still kicking ass in sly 3 and 4 ❤ I like Murray but he didn't have enough character development. We all just like sly.
This is the only sky Cooper game I ever played since I never got a PS3 to play the rest
I love this game
I used to be scared of Clockwerk since how scary he looked
I have THE GAME SLY Cooper. now it all makes sense.
I’m really annoyed that they got rid of the cards scene in dimitri defeated in the HD trilogy collection for sly 2. It’s not even that big of a deal in all honesty.
If they do a sly cooper 5 then I want them to bring back Alesia Glidewellthe second voice actress to play Carmelita again.

Do you know why we stopped the car? I think it’s just the color of her pants
Too bad Sly didnt get another chance for the ps4 :(

no other game gives me so much nostalagy
why is it at 15:14 carmelita isn't wearing pants? .-.

Either it’s the color or it’s a mistake by the animators
Ok this has always confused me is that a mustache or his mouth open for Clockworks diagram?
So dimtre did he become a dance instructor after 3rd game because see him in prison in third game before we break him out
3:50 i find it weird the that this portion of the cutscene was cut from the HD collection
9:16 - 9:20 it's quite obvious the Contessa poison her own husband
I love this gems
