Sly Cooper!!!

[extraneousdominomask]

My genuine fear for the Sly Cooper TV show

-Show is either heavily rooted on, or worse, exclusive to, Sony’s shitty and painfully overpriced streaming service Vue

-No-one watches it on Vue because Vue is quite bad

-Correction: one person watches it on Vue, but only to create a pirated version. This brave soul posts the show online 

-Fandom watches pirated version (doubly so since the Sly fans I meet on this site are spread across Europe and Australia and wherever, so this is likely anyway if there’s any kind of region-locking). Much memes and discussion

-Sony sees low numbers on their terrible, terrible streaming service and says “Well! I guess no-one likes this show :(”

Do we have anymore updates on the show? Is it still happening in the first place?

Edit: I have never once in my life thought about PlayStation Vue up until this point and I just looked up the price and IF I HAVE TO PAY BETWEEN FORTY-FIVE TO SEVENTY DOLLARS TO WATCH SLY I’M STARTING A RIOT.

Yep! Last week they dusted off the movie trailer and said it would be coming “to TV” in October 2019.

I’m just a bit dubious about the definition of “TV”, here…

Edit for edit: the one thing more insane to me than Sony charging minimum $45 a month for what seems to be a pretty bad service is that 670,000 people actually pay that

[ringtail-and-wizard]

Ok so it’s the same exact trailer with minor editing. Also, “geared towards 6 to 10 year olds.” Oh boy.

Sly Cooper Games: We're for kids. Yeah kids will like us.

Sly Cooper Games: Here's some infuriating gameplay, some impossible to beat missions, some paranormal shit, a giant owl and a spider lady that will give you nightmares, sharks faster than the speed of light, scary ass bears, wolves, wolves disguised as statues, a main character that loses the ability to use their legs in a horrific accident...did we mention the wolves?

Me: I love it.

AAAAHHHHHHHH

[ringtail-and-wizard]

For half a second, Sly knew what he was getting into.

When you get put into a group for a project and casually bring up Sly Cooper and someone knows the series.

Make art, BE art.

Okay, so last night I was playing the “He who tames the iron horse” Canada episode in Sly 2 when I spotted this little gem.

Still not seeing it?

Nicely done Sucker Punch... nicely done.

Me: Ah, the menace in the north eh?
