Sony has another Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time video up on its YouTube channel, as promotion for the game's impending launch in Europe. While previous videos showed us Bentley losing his temper with an automatic helpline and Murray explaining why he doesn't wear pants, this one finally focuses on Sly Cooper himself. In it, he breaks the fourth wall and talks about the game itself.
Unfortunately, the humour is tainted, as he talks about how he's “under strict orders not to reveal any secrets”. Funny, except the U.S. has had the game for more than a month already. If players in Europe wanted to find out any “secrets” they could just chat to an American friend or head to Google. But Sly chooses a roundabout way to convey information to watchers, saying that he'll think the secrets and that the “small percentage of the population out there with psychic abilities” can pick up on them that way.
Those secrets? Sly can glide into a scene and sneak up on a guard, use his hooked stick to attack, and walk along tightropes. Oh, and he'll probably get a kiss (and then a slap) from Carmelita Fox, though he'd rather you forget you saw that.
“You know what?” He says, “I think this not revealing any secrets thing is a good policy.”
As we've established, this issue is irrelevant when it comes to Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time, but what do you think in general? Is it important to keep secrets and avoid spoilers?
