So let me get this straight, Clockwerk wants to be a master thief. Dude you’re a giant mechanical war machine Owl, you might have to rethink your career path buddy
Epic-Evan owls are known to be very stealthy animals maybe he enhanced that in his mechanical form, and has a stealth form which is different than his fight mode
How did Sly even know that Carmelita would eventually be freed from the hand cuffs? I mean who would come looking for her on a desolate volcanic rock in the middle of nowhere?
"I knew we'd be seeing each other soon" *Later on the news* Famous detective Carmelita Montoya Fox has been found dead in a volcano in Russia. She was found dead handcuffed to a catwalk. Officials currently have no leads in their investigation.
Hey Sly, remember that time you left the girl you love handcuffed to unstable metal railing over an active volcano without the key all the way in Russia?
True, but since sly 4 is about him traveling back in time, it can be possible that clockwerk will show up in those time periods since he's lived over hundreds of years and has challenge his ancestors countless times.
I think what happens in sly 4 is how clockwerk became robotic, it dose make sence since because like what you just said, he lived over thousands of years ago when electricity never existed or machinary, i think that this "collector" guy or whoever is the main villain of sly 4 is the reason how clockwerk became mechanical, or it could be like what we've heared in the original sly games that the past may not what it seems like what we think it was and clockwerk was very intellagent.
Love Clockwerk. May not be the toughest challenge in the series, but definitely fun for the most iconic and coolest villain in the entires series. He kind of reminds me of DIO from Jojo with his influence over the Cooper bloodline. However there was one thing I never understood when it came to him... considering that Sly as an adult is only as big as his head, how the hell did he invade the Cooper household without tearing down the structure? I'm sure the neighbors and cops would have noticed a giant mechanical owl committing a home invasion and homicide.
@@accelriderx2931 Hmm... that makes sense. Imagine if he has a whole hive mind of smaller owls bots that he can control circling the globe? That would be pretty cool if they follow through on the movie or even develop a prequel or spin-off game where you play as separate members of the Cooper clan throughout time via readings of journal entries.
Mz. Ruby was the Chief Mystic, breaking the laws of nature and man. Therefore, MY explanation is this: when they ransacked the Cooper residence, her [Mz. Ruby's] magic made ClockweRk smaller so he could kill Conner Cooper (Sly's father) himself before finding the Thievius Raccoonus and joining in on tearing it apart like a lie to somebody's heart.
Clockwerk kept himself alive for hundreds of years with jelousy and hate. The guy who made clockwerk immortal probly didnt even know sly, so he couldnt stay alive with the hate of a cold heart.
you know, if jealousy and hatred for the Cooper clan the only things that would keep him immortal...if he succeeded, what would he do then? he'd would be getting jealous at a dead horse...?
My question involving Clockwerk is his motivation. Oh sure he wanted to be better than the Cooper line, but why? Was he shamed by them? Did they hurt him in some way? We're just supposed to assume that Clockwerk has always hated the Coopers since the dawn of time, and I'm sorry but that doesn't make any sense!
@234Assassin well, he probably just forced his way through(meaning he crashed through the wall), second, if you had him standing over you, you'd crap your pants and give him what he wants
In a game full of cartoon comedy and anthropomorphic characters, Clockwerk was cold and dead serious, both in personality and appearance. He was realistically designed where other characters were humanized. He was psychotic and void of emotions outside hatred and jealousy where others were portrayed alongside humor, even the other villains. He was so detached; a disturbing taste of dark reality in an otherwise cartoony game, and that's what makes him terrifying. As a kid, when that music started and Clockwerk was revealed, I could feel the gravity of the situation, that I was facing pure evil, and had to beat him. A+/10, great villain.
That's what I love about the sly series. It's a cartoon comedy and all the characters are anthropomorphic yet it's actually pretty grounded in reality, taken pretty seriously, and is pretty violent .. It's sort of like watching an actual movie where they follow the criminal. It's probably gonna get violent sometimes, it's gonna get bumpy sometimes, it's more than likely gonna be pretty grounded other than things the directors might just get wrong on the technical side or wrong because they want a different out come.
The Golden Age of video games and a villain that helped make a game that would help Sony in the video game market with the lined up console we know and love today
It is weird how we look at things in retrospect as we age. When I was a kid I didn't think about it, but these days Clockwerk outright terrifies me. Imagine how much you loathe someone to turn yourself into pure machine and hatred.
And stalk your family line for generations. Imagine how frightening and stressful that would be to have a menacing figure always watching you from a distance.
***** Actually...I only watched walkthroughs of the Sly games because...well...I hate PlayStation. But at least it has some games that are actually good, especially Skullgirls and "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game".
I consider Clockwerk one of the underrated video game villains. One of my favorites. His voice was spot on and they did some superb writing on his backstory.
James Cozad At the same time, I think it would've been an equal disservice to the character to keep recycling him, though I agree they used a half-measure with Clock-La. Neyla seemed like a really unnecessary character.
@@foxshock5571 Revenge is the prime ingredient in the fountain of youth. I've kept myself alive with a steady diet of jealousy and hate, awaiting the day when I would finally eclipse your family's thieving reputation...
I don't get it. You're so familiar with my family, you must've known my father had a son. If you hated the Coopers so much, why'd you let me live when you stole the Thievious Racconous?
There needed to be a spark to inspire the gang to head back in time to stop Clockwerk. If la Paradox never did his evil to change time, it would have remained the same, and Thieves in Time would have never happened. Yes, Bentley made a time machine. Sure, visiting Galleth and Rioichi would have been fine alone, but there wasn't enough peril in stopping a villain whom Sly had already stopped. If anything, Clockwerk hunting Sly through time in the fifth installment would feel more feasible than just throwing him in 4.
RevengedSevenfold Obviously it never happened in the game's story, but I think the fact that Clockwerk has been hunting the Cooper line since it has existed is a reason enough to want to stop him.
You are completely right my friend, I feel like we never really got to explore Clockwerks back story very much (other than knowing he had a great hatred for the Coopers) hell even in Sly 2 the devs at Sucker Punch could have given us that chance, but instead they gave us Clock-La. If Sucker Punch or Sanzaru make a Sly 5 they need to bring Clockwerk back and develop him more.
In my honest opinion, Clockwerk is and always will be the best Sly Cooper villain ever. All the other main villains in the sequels have been boring as hell and just not as epic and threatening as Clockwerk. I really hope he comes back in Sly Cooper 5 if they make it.
I have to agree with you on that one: There have been some pretty good bosses in Cooper history, but none live up to the name of Clockwerk. Also, do you really think the franchise will go 3 seasons (games, whatever you want to call them) without Clockwerk playing an important role in one of them? I have high hopes that the 5th will actually feature him.
I would too actually: I went about the games in an interesting way: going back and forth between the first few levels between the 1st and 3rd, then at some point completing the 3rd, then 1st, then 2nd, and then beating the 4th when it came out. So basically, my first true Sly Cooper boss is Dr M. (and yes, looking back he was lacking in characterism, but in my opinion, so was the whole of Sly 3)
Why didn't he come back in sly 4? Seriously that was a perfect opportunity. TIME TRAVEL he could of been a secret boss for each time zone and been the REAL final boss in Sly 4 when he comes forward in time to finish sly off since he learned from the future when sly beat him and leaned to no longer rely on the hate chip but something else.
adekaiwamisou I think Neyla needs an honourable mention too, she's definitely one of the more deceiving villains in the series, she detrained the gang to the authority's, she betrayed the claw gang, killed their leader, became a weaker but still dangerous Clockwork and was the reason Bentley is in a weal chair now
his closest match is probably neyla. you never knew she was the main villian. and then neyla in her dieing breath cripples Bently. which still is a horrible memory
Maybe he was planning that after he got revenge? I really don't know, but he obviously had some general idea of what he was gonna after he got the title (and revenge)....probably
i look back at this years later, and do find one thing quite terrifying about Clockwerk in the boos fight. if we put real world implication into perspective for this fight, Sly basically would have had no way to win this fight if Carmalita wasn't able to punch holes in Clockwerks armor, much less if he wasn't able to convince the foxy detective to team up with him for this battle in the first place so that he could have the jet pack. kinda scary how easily Clockwerk actually could have won this encounter
It's also ironic because for as much as Clockwerk mocked Sly and the Coopers for having empathy, without that empathy (or at least the willingness to steal a gun from someone's gassed body), Clockwerk would have won. But he failed to comprehend that sometimes the team is greater than the sum of its parts.
I really wish we knew WHY Clockwerk hated the Coopers so much. We knew why he was jealous, but I kind of feel like there's more and if there is, hopefully there's a great backstory to it!
Just throwing this out here, but what if you were a human who decided to climb the krackaura (or however you spell it) volcano at that time and saw a raccoon in a jetpack fighting a mechanical owl XD
I get the impression that Clockwerk was (or *is,* in this context) a more *technological* kind of thief. A thief who sees being some *mere burglar* having to physically break into a place as *beneath* him. *Think about it.* Why on Earth would he have something as sophisticated as the *Robo-Falcons?* They're relatively small, otherwise inconspicuous in the dark and more dependable than training living birds, since they do whatever he programs them to do, i.e. spy for recon, steal valuables, etc.. Now, considering Clockwerk has been *alive for centuries,* meaning he's probably been around long enough to remember *the wheel* being an advanced piece of technology, then he must have been the ancient equivalent of *Leonardo DaVinci.* This in mind, if I were a brilliant, arrogant, borderline-psychotic super genius in, say, *Ancient Egypt,* who revelled in executing a carefully concocted scheme with elaborate mechanisms, precise timing and clever tactics without having to lift a finger (or feather) and found that a more lo-tech, 'primitive' thief, like *Slytunkhamen,* is overshadowing me in every way, *that would be a sure-fire way to make me snap completely.*
@@therossblackwoodshow6288 Clockwerk has the best voice ever he's the best Sly Cooper villain although instead of becoming a Master Thief he could've just ruled the whole world instead.
Hold on now. With the cliffhanger in Sly 4 I Think we will someday see Sly 5...we waited 10 years for sly 4 surely we Can wait a little shorter:) besides if you pay attention how would clockwerk gain a robotic body even back in the Ice age? My guess is since Penelope is free again and since she know how to travel back in time she will give clockwerk his immortal body. She is afterall a genius as bright as Bentley. I Think this could be possible, there are certain hints in sly 4 even:)
Sly 5 was literally planned but it's just that there ain't any developers who could make it. Sanzaru said they won't do it and Sucker Punch most likely not too.
To be honest, i was hoping that sly 4 would have delved into the canes more considering that every ancestor had their canes stolen in that game. For example, reveal that within the canes resided an element from a comet that came to earth around the time of slytunkhamen, allowing the coopers to preform impossible feats like slowing down time, defying gravity, etc.(sly 1), it also could have been a call back to Dr. M and the reason why the fake canes didnt work on the vault door in sly 3 and a call back to clockwork's speech in sly 1 (instead of the thievius racoonus, it was the canes all along.) It also would have made sense if la paradox found this out through time traveling and decided to steal as many canes as possible to harness an abundant of the same element (creating a paradox) to make himself the ultimate master thief with god like powers.
Clockwerk is almost like Ridley! Giant bird like monster, both flesh and robot, killed main character's parents and forever haunts them even in death = BADASS
"Revenge is the prime ingredient in the fountain of youth. I have kept myself alive for HUNDREDS of years with a steady diet of jealousy and hate, awaiting the day when I would finally eclipse your family's thieving reputation." -ClockweRk the Owl
Clockwerk is my all time favorite antagonist, Seeing that my mind is a little twisted (not much) I can see where he's coming from. Clockwerk is overall an epic villain and giant metal owl. 9/10 would fight him again.
it's too bad that the sly cooper games are sort of underrated because they were awesome as heck. I used to watch my cousins play the games and my favorite character at the time was Murray. Now the games are sort of forgotten unless they make sly cooper 5, hopefully clockwerk will somehow return.
Heres the issue. Clockwerk is a giant robotic owl that has "been alive for hundreds of years." If he has been, and he used this robotic technology to survive, where did he get the parts to build himself?! does this hint at time travel which has already been introduced in sly 4?!?!?! Clockwerk has been time traveling WAY BEFORE ANYONE ELSE :0
I agree. I'd always assumed that Clockwerk had been slowly replacing his body parts as time went on until he went fully mechanical with the hate chip. It makes you wonder what did the coopers done or the reason for Clockwerk to hate the cooper clan so feverishly besides be the greatest. I think there's more to the bird and that's what makes him an awesome villain.
A Steady augmentation most likely, chances are Raleigh also helped in the more modern improvements since he was hired for his Tech which is not limited to generating massive storms over his personal island.
what scared me the most of this level as that previous 4 stages told you who you were fighting and what to expect. clockwerk nobody knew who he was and to stack it worse... he's in years old pictures. Easy boss fight but a damn good setup
I really hope that in the upcoming movie, Clockwerk is as terrifying as he was in this game and keep his backstory. And his voice should be similar to his voice in this one
I'm hoping for the same thing! If the creators of the movie could just get the original voice actor for Clockwerk, then it would be one of the many things that would make this movie so worth seeing.
@@PhoenixPrime The original voice actor, Kevin Blackton, died in 2016. But you still have hope in the form of ME: ruclips.net/video/JtBsS2S1BY8/видео.html
BETTER PLOT TWISTS TO EXPLORE IN SLY 4! NUMBER 1. (Referencing Sly 1) Clockwerk: "Remarkable, you coopers always find a way to beat me" Implying that he has been Defeated MORE than once! then how did he keep coming back? did the other coopers just couldn't finish the job? Perfect Opportunity to find out why. Then you go back in time to see how his jealousy slowly started to turn to Hatred And being defeated MORE than once, what else could that mean? did he have more than one Mechanical Body? NUMBER 2. (Referencing Sly 2) The Hate Chip Funny, is this how he kept him self alive? or is there more to this story? after Constable . . I mean "Captain" Neyla entered Clockwerks body, she not only starts to feel invincible, but it also felt that SHE HERSELF was slowy turning into CLOCKWERK! so what if in the timeline, Clockwerk wasnt always technicly ALIVE, What if he some how found a way to manipulate others into becoming the New Clockwerk each time with that "I will become Immortal" Nonsense? when in reality it was to give him more Hatred fuel or something. NUMBER 3. PENELOPE BECOMING EVIL! (GAWD THATS SO FRIGGAN STUPID!) (Referencing Sly 2 and 4) Clockwerk Captures Penelope and starts . . . questioning who she was. and after Clockwerk was done with her . . . well, remember when the Contessa used Clockwerks Eyes for Hypnosis? what if Clockwerk some how Hypnotised Penelope into doing what ever he says and SUPRISE! THANKS TO YOU TIME TRAVELING, CLOCKWERK NOW REIGNS FOR EVER! NOW ITS UP TO YOU TO CORRECT WHAT YOU HAVE DONE. even if it means erasing your own existence as a Cooper. ........BUT NOPE! NONE OF THESE WERE USED!.... MAKES ME SO GRRRR!
@Thomas CHÂTEL hmph yeah, like if that's ever going to he coming out anytime soon. You'd have better luck waiting or praying for GTA VI to come out in the next 2 years compared to waiting for Sly 5 to ever come out! Lololol.
So let me get this straight, Clockwerk wants to be a master thief. Dude you’re a giant mechanical war machine Owl, you might have to rethink your career path buddy
You'd think that Clockwerk drafted the other members of the Fiendish Five just to help him steal the Thievius Racoonus, but the cutscenes and Boss fights went out of their way to describe each of their backgrounds and different talents. I wonder if the Fiendish Five ever pulled off any big crimes as a whole before raiding the Coopers?.
it weird that we're talking about clockwerk in 2016 while the video came in 2008. also Sly cooper was one of the first game i ever played and even today,it still awesome!
Clockwerk did you install Nintendo lava in your volcano? You look like a badass by the way. Also how did you fit in Sly's house when you and your team robbed them?
A lot of people joke that clockwerk should've gone for a different career due to his size. That's the scariest part of Clockwerk, he's not a thief of subtlety, he's a thief willing to kill and torture to get what valuables he desires. Clockwerk's greatest heist of all time? Was robbing sly of his father.
Clockwerk is legitimately terrifying. Every other enemy is somewhat light-hearted and funny but, Clockwerk is not. He emanates nothing but hatred and the desire to murder you. Uh, against my better judgement...do you need a hug Clockwerk?
I just learned something I was hoping wasn’t true about Clockwerk today, but it turns out his voice actor Kevin Blackton has sadly passed away. What’s worse is that he’s actually been dead for quite some time and I think it’s most likely that many of probably never even knew about that either.
Clockwerk is definately one of my favorite video game villains ever. Such a badass. Does anyone else realize that Clockwerk is the only member of the Fiendish Five who as his health bar depletes, the face doesn't look weaker. It just makes it seem like he's getting more pissed.
"The Thievius Racoonus doesn't create great thieves, it takes great thieves to create the Thievius Racoonus." So then, all those different moves in the game were developed by the Coopers themselves and recorded in the book so future Coopers could learn from it. Makes sense.
First off, I LOVED playing this when I was a kid, and Clockwerk is still one of my favorite villains in the series, if not my all-time favorite. Second, am I the only one hearing James Spader as Ultron from the trailer to Avengers: Age of Ultron whenever he talks? Like that line where he goes "There are no strings on me..." Heck, I wouldn't be surprised if someone actually dubbed that line in...
Now that I'm older, I realize how awesome his dialogue was, even if he only had so much. I remember always wanting to play as him in Sly 2 & 3, he was friggin cool to me. Just the design the mystery, the fight, and the music! It was perfect for me as a wee babby.
Clockwerk scared the absolute shit out of me as a kid. I remember looking out of my window terrified that I would see his silhouette along the horizon. Am I the only one who was terrified of him?
Damn I wish they still made games like this.... nothing but greedy corporations, shitty publishers and sjw b/s now... This is a perfect game, deff in my hall of fames.
I fully believe that Sly Cooper was a franchise with a great story and some really nice characters. Sadly, due to its weird sound effects and third-rate gameplay animation, it got left behind by all the other PlayStation games of its Era. If it was remastered properly, it would be amazing.
You know those video games you find set up at restaurants that someone's already gotten halfway through and there's no instructions on what to do and you're completely lost? Yeah, that's Sly Cooper for me.
I think there's a greater mystery left unsolved that to this day has NEVER been explained. If Clockwerk is cybernetic, you know made up of robotic parts, then SOMEONE had to have built Clockwerk. But who? Who could possibly build something that lives for thousands of years off of hatred and jealousy? My theory is it had to be someone who despised the Cooper family. But the real question is what happened to Clockwerk's creator? Are they even still alive and if so, is it possible the TRUE threat has yet to be confronted?
In Sly 2, we see that clockwerk's brain is the micro-hate and Neala (Nela? don't remind how write it) went into a kind of electric spirit to take control of clockwerk (first mission in episode 8) . Maybe Clockwerk was at his creation another thief jealous of Coopers family and created this owl armor to kill them and staying alive all of those years.

Hate that spans for generations and is entirely focused on ending said family and their reputation pretty dark I love it
Hence my nickname for him: "Devil Bird." Lovingly referenced from Ace Ventura.
Not to mention the likelihood that he killed each of Sly's ancestors, seeing as he was in the background of all their photos, in the skyline.

That sure STINKS! XD ... I'm so sorry...
You are completely right my friend, I feel like we never really got to explore Clockwerks back story very much (other than knowing he had a great hatred for the Coopers) hell even in Sly 2 the devs at Sucker Punch could have given us that chance, but instead they gave us Clock-La. If Sucker Punch or Sanzaru make a Sly 5 they need to bring Clockwerk back and develop him more.
In my honest opinion, Clockwerk is and always will be the best Sly Cooper villain ever. All the other main villains in the sequels have been boring as hell and just not as epic and threatening as Clockwerk. I really hope he comes back in Sly Cooper 5 if they make it.
I have to agree with you on that one: There have been some pretty good bosses in Cooper history, but none live up to the name of Clockwerk. Also, do you really think the franchise will go 3 seasons (games, whatever you want to call them) without Clockwerk playing an important role in one of them? I have high hopes that the 5th will actually feature him.
I would too actually: I went about the games in an interesting way: going back and forth between the first few levels between the 1st and 3rd, then at some point completing the 3rd, then 1st, then 2nd, and then beating the 4th when it came out. So basically, my first true Sly Cooper boss is Dr M. (and yes, looking back he was lacking in characterism, but in my opinion, so was the whole of Sly 3)
Why didn't he come back in sly 4? Seriously that was a perfect opportunity. TIME TRAVEL he could of been a secret boss for each time zone and been the REAL final boss in Sly 4 when he comes forward in time to finish sly off since he learned from the future when sly beat him and leaned to no longer rely on the hate chip but something else.
adekaiwamisou I think Neyla needs an honourable mention too, she's definitely one of the more deceiving villains in the series, she detrained the gang to the authority's, she betrayed the claw gang, killed their leader, became a weaker but still dangerous Clockwork and was the reason Bentley is in a weal chair now
his closest match is probably neyla. you never knew she was the main villian. and then neyla in her dieing breath cripples Bently. which still is a horrible memory
I'll never understand why Clockwerk settled for a master thief title. He could of easily taken over the world.
Idk either man. I guess that's just how much he hated the cooper line...
I would argue that Clockwerk had misanthropy, he pretty much hated everything.
Maybe he was planning that after he got revenge? I really don't know, but he obviously had some general idea of what he was gonna after he got the title (and revenge)....probably
"Could've".
Pepic Walrus I think the hatred for the Coopers made him blind and he didn't see all his potential, not like others did, like Arpeggio.
i look back at this years later, and do find one thing quite terrifying about Clockwerk in the boos fight. if we put real world implication into perspective for this fight, Sly basically would have had no way to win this fight if Carmalita wasn't able to punch holes in Clockwerks armor, much less if he wasn't able to convince the foxy detective to team up with him for this battle in the first place so that he could have the jet pack. kinda scary how easily Clockwerk actually could have won this encounter
ikr?
He could've taken out Carmelita before attacking Cooper.
Hindsight's a bitch.
Holy shit that's scary 😱😱😱😱😬😬😬😬
It's also ironic because for as much as Clockwerk mocked Sly and the Coopers for having empathy, without that empathy (or at least the willingness to steal a gun from someone's gassed body), Clockwerk would have won. But he failed to comprehend that sometimes the team is greater than the sum of its parts.
@@vandeheyeric
And Love conquers all too
I really wish we knew WHY Clockwerk hated the Coopers so much. We knew why he was jealous, but I kind of feel like there's more and if there is, hopefully there's a great backstory to it!
Too have hatred to that span's centuries across your life. Whatever happened was definitely personal.
Maybe one of Sly's ancestors robbed/stole from Clockwerk
I honestly think he's just racist towards raccoons.
+DarkPurpleDude Best explanation.
What the opposite of hate?
How is he supposed to be a skilled thief when he's the size of a pregnant building?
+Jaceblue04 hahahaha omg he said pregnant building xDDD
Yeah, like, da fuq?
Pregnant buildingxD
Because he stole Sly's parents nigga.
This guy was the nightmare of my childhood. Damn he was scary.

If Clockwork ever returns Ron Perlman should voice him.
So you were a pussy. Shame on you.
I thought he was badass
Just throwing this out here, but what if you were a human who decided to climb the krackaura (or however you spell it) volcano at that time and saw a raccoon in a jetpack fighting a mechanical owl XD
A humanoid raccoon in a blue outfit holding a golden scyth and flying around in a jetpack vs a huge mechanical immortal owl
I get the impression that Clockwerk was (or *is,* in this context) a more *technological* kind of thief. A thief who sees being some *mere burglar* having to physically break into a place as *beneath* him.
*Think about it.* Why on Earth would he have something as sophisticated as the *Robo-Falcons?* They're relatively small, otherwise inconspicuous in the dark and more dependable than training living birds, since they do whatever he programs them to do, i.e. spy for recon, steal valuables, etc..
Now, considering Clockwerk has been *alive for centuries,* meaning he's probably been around long enough to remember *the wheel* being an advanced piece of technology, then he must have been the ancient equivalent of *Leonardo DaVinci.*
This in mind, if I were a brilliant, arrogant, borderline-psychotic super genius in, say, *Ancient Egypt,* who revelled in executing a carefully concocted scheme with elaborate mechanisms, precise timing and clever tactics without having to lift a finger (or feather) and found that a more lo-tech, 'primitive' thief, like *Slytunkhamen,* is overshadowing me in every way, *that would be a sure-fire way to make me snap completely.*
Man, I faking love Clockwerks voice. So damn badass
Elizabeth Esser who doesn't?!
@@therossblackwoodshow6288
Clockwerk has the best voice ever he's the best Sly Cooper villain although instead of becoming a Master Thief he could've just ruled the whole world instead.
Sly 4's time traveling story would have fitted so well with Clockwerk. Many wasted opportunities there and the Easter Eggs ain't changing that.
So so true
Hold on now. With the cliffhanger in Sly 4 I Think we will someday see Sly 5...we waited 10 years for sly 4 surely we Can wait a little shorter:) besides if you pay attention how would clockwerk gain a robotic body even back in the Ice age? My guess is since Penelope is free again and since she know how to travel back in time she will give clockwerk his immortal body. She is afterall a genius as bright as Bentley. I Think this could be possible, there are certain hints in sly 4 even:)
Sly 5 was literally planned but it's just that there ain't any developers who could make it. Sanzaru said they won't do it and Sucker Punch most likely not too.
Actually, Sanzaru said that they would do it, but it's up to Sony if they can make another part.
To be honest, i was hoping that sly 4 would have delved into the canes more considering that every ancestor had their canes stolen in that game. For example, reveal that within the canes resided an element from a comet that came to earth around the time of slytunkhamen, allowing the coopers to preform impossible feats like slowing down time, defying gravity, etc.(sly 1), it also could have been a call back to Dr. M and the reason why the fake canes didnt work on the vault door in sly 3 and a call back to clockwork's speech in sly 1 (instead of the thievius racoonus, it was the canes all along.) It also would have made sense if la paradox found this out through time traveling and decided to steal as many canes as possible to harness an abundant of the same element (creating a paradox) to make himself the ultimate master thief with god like powers.
Clockwerk is almost like Ridley! Giant bird like monster, both flesh and robot, killed main character's parents and forever haunts them even in death = BADASS
I saw the similarities as well
For some reason Clockwerk's voice in this game is the greatest thing ever. Clockwerk in general is so awesome, a giant evil robot owl.
flangybandicoot yes! I love it!
However, Clockwork was once a living eagle owl, so that would technically make him a cyborg.
@TwisterSanity
I bet they do underneath.
@@therossblackwoodshow6288
We need more deep creepy voices like this in Videogames nowadays.
@@therossblackwoodshow6288
I imagine Grand Duke of Owls with this voice for him
All I gotta say, is that when Clockwerk comes to the movie they better keep his voice somewhat the same or someone's gonna die.
Imitating Jontron: Two kids gonna die tonight!
+Eric Yohman Hey, I actually got that reference!
"Revenge is the prime ingredient in the fountain of youth. I have kept myself alive for HUNDREDS of years with a steady diet of jealousy and hate, awaiting the day when I would finally eclipse your family's thieving reputation."

Is that movie even still happening
@@DJWarwing no.
Clockwerk is my all time favorite antagonist, Seeing that my mind is a little twisted (not much) I can see where he's coming from. Clockwerk is overall an epic villain and giant metal owl. 9/10 would fight him again.
Clockwerk makes the creepiest sound when he takes damage
It sounds like adults in charlie brown. "wah wah wuh whuhh whuhh waahhh." lol
@@hobomike6935
Lol I like Charlie Brown.
it's too bad that the sly cooper games are sort of underrated because they were awesome as heck. I used to watch my cousins play the games and my favorite character at the time was Murray. Now the games are sort of forgotten unless they make sly cooper 5, hopefully clockwerk will somehow return.
I always wished more people discovered the games :(
If clockwerk return I really hope he will speak again with an awesome robotic voice:D
I love Sly Cooper my favorite character is Sly Cooper ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I love him a lot he's funny he's charming and I love his jokes lol
agreed
Heres the issue. Clockwerk is a giant robotic owl that has "been alive for hundreds of years." If he has been, and he used this robotic technology to survive, where did he get the parts to build himself?! does this hint at time travel which has already been introduced in sly 4?!?!?! Clockwerk has been time traveling WAY BEFORE ANYONE ELSE :0
I agree. I'd always assumed that Clockwerk had been slowly replacing his body parts as time went on until he went fully mechanical with the hate chip. It makes you wonder what did the coopers done or the reason for Clockwerk to hate the cooper clan so feverishly besides be the greatest. I think there's more to the bird and that's what makes him an awesome villain.
I don't have to answer to you!
A Steady augmentation most likely, chances are Raleigh also helped in the more modern improvements since he was hired for his Tech which is not limited to generating massive storms over his personal island.
Clockwerk has the voice of a powerful deity.
what scared me the most of this level as that previous 4 stages told you who you were fighting and what to expect. clockwerk nobody knew who he was and to stack it worse... he's in years old pictures. Easy boss fight but a damn good setup
Yeah, scary shit.
EASY!? This dude beat my ass so many times when I was a kid I cried from frustration and broke a controller.
Would you say it's a strong buildup to a disappointing payoff?
@@loganmcallister8050
Bentley: Just fly into the rings to avoid their radial blast!
I really hope that in the upcoming movie, Clockwerk is as terrifying as he was in this game and keep his backstory.
And his voice should be similar to his voice in this one
I'm hoping for the same thing! If the creators of the movie could just get the original voice actor for Clockwerk, then it would be one of the many things that would make this movie so worth seeing.

BETTER PLOT TWISTS TO EXPLORE IN SLY 4!
NUMBER 1.
(Referencing Sly 1)
Clockwerk: "Remarkable, you coopers always find a way to beat me"
Implying that he has been Defeated MORE than once! then how did he keep coming back? did the other coopers just couldn't finish the job? Perfect Opportunity to find out why. Then you go back in time to see how his jealousy slowly started to turn to Hatred And being defeated MORE than once, what else could that mean? did he have more than one Mechanical Body?
NUMBER 2.
(Referencing Sly 2)
The Hate Chip
Funny, is this how he kept him self alive? or is there more to this story? after Constable . . I mean "Captain" Neyla entered Clockwerks body, she not only starts to feel invincible, but it also felt that SHE HERSELF was slowy turning into CLOCKWERK! so what if in the timeline, Clockwerk wasnt always technicly ALIVE, What if he some how found a way to manipulate others into becoming the New Clockwerk each time with that "I will become Immortal" Nonsense? when in reality it was to give him more Hatred fuel or something.
NUMBER 3.
PENELOPE BECOMING EVIL! (GAWD THATS SO FRIGGAN STUPID!)
(Referencing Sly 2 and 4)
Clockwerk Captures Penelope and starts . . . questioning who she was. and after Clockwerk was done with her . . . well, remember when the Contessa used Clockwerks Eyes for Hypnosis? what if Clockwerk some how Hypnotised Penelope into doing what ever he says and SUPRISE! THANKS TO YOU TIME TRAVELING, CLOCKWERK NOW REIGNS FOR EVER! NOW ITS UP TO YOU TO CORRECT WHAT YOU HAVE DONE. even if it means erasing your own existence as a Cooper.
........BUT NOPE! NONE OF THESE WERE USED!.... MAKES ME SO GRRRR!
@Thomas CHÂTEL hmph yeah, like if that's ever going to he coming out anytime soon. You'd have better luck waiting or praying for GTA VI to come out in the next 2 years compared to waiting for Sly 5 to ever come out! Lololol.
They REALLY should incorporate those into the next game.... if they EVER make one.
I LOVE the voice
A volcano in Russia?
In the words of Sly Cooper: "is this a strange coincidence? Or is there something I'm missing?"
So let me get this straight, Clockwerk wants to be a master thief. Dude you’re a giant mechanical war machine Owl, you might have to rethink your career path buddy
he could killed star fox i wanna see him vs kratos since clockwerk is immortal. also the hate chip must of took a really long damn time to make that.
I know right! That's what I said.
I mean to be fair, if this guy wanted to steal something from you you’d probably just give it up.
No need for stealth 😂
Clockwerk was my favorite boss in Sly Cooper.
You'd think that Clockwerk drafted the other members of the Fiendish Five just to help him steal the Thievius Racoonus, but the cutscenes and Boss fights went out of their way to describe each of their backgrounds and different talents.
I wonder if the Fiendish Five ever pulled off any big crimes as a whole before raiding the Coopers?.
Hmnm, that's a possibility. Them pulling of jobs together against a family of thieves that they hate so much isn't a invalid assumption.
jafeir
it weird that we're talking about clockwerk in 2016 while the video came in 2008. also Sly cooper was one of the first game i ever played and even today,it still awesome!
I know right!
Sly Raccoon came out in September 2002. That's almost 14 years ago.
2020 now
Same here buddy
Clockwerk did you install Nintendo lava in your volcano? You look like a badass by the way. Also how did you fit in Sly's house when you and your team robbed them?
Man... (*wipes tear*) this shit...this shit was my shit, man. I wish I still had my PS2, because this was my childhood.
You Can get it on PS3 you know that right?
Ps2s are cheap now. I got a refurbished one for $50.
A lot of people joke that clockwerk should've gone for a different career due to his size. That's the scariest part of Clockwerk, he's not a thief of subtlety, he's a thief willing to kill and torture to get what valuables he desires.
Clockwerk's greatest heist of all time? Was robbing sly of his father.
clockwerk is literal definition of being too angry to die
Doomguy/slayer: *"I beg to defer"*
Clockwerk is legitimately terrifying. Every other enemy is somewhat light-hearted and funny but, Clockwerk is not. He emanates nothing but hatred and the desire to murder you. Uh, against my better judgement...do you need a hug Clockwerk?
I just learned something I was hoping wasn’t true about Clockwerk today, but it turns out his voice actor Kevin Blackton has sadly passed away. What’s worse is that he’s actually been dead for quite some time and I think it’s most likely that many of probably never even knew about that either.
I hope that Clockwerk is in the Sly Cooper movie
Aleksi Ha
And his voice better be like this in it too.
Kept waiting for Murray to tell Sly to do a barrel roll.
Clockwerk is definately one of my favorite video game villains ever. Such a badass.
Does anyone else realize that Clockwerk is the only member of the Fiendish Five who as his health bar depletes, the face doesn't look weaker. It just makes it seem like he's getting more pissed.
Nice touch waiting for him to finish at the end.
6:34 Sly: Aw, shut up!
Kyle Stubbs lol XD
Clockwerk: 10/10 villain, 3/10 final boss
God, The Cold Heart Of Hate’s theme is slightly unnerving.
"The Thievius Racoonus doesn't create great thieves, it takes great thieves to create the Thievius Racoonus."
So then, all those different moves in the game were developed by the Coopers themselves and recorded in the book so future Coopers could learn from it. Makes sense.
"Perfection has no age"
I swear man clockwerk's voice sound cool as fuck...super villain like that means he gonna give you a hell of a fight
First off, I LOVED playing this when I was a kid, and Clockwerk is still one of my favorite villains in the series, if not my all-time favorite. Second, am I the only one hearing James Spader as Ultron from the trailer to Avengers: Age of Ultron whenever he talks? Like that line where he goes "There are no strings on me..." Heck, I wouldn't be surprised if someone actually dubbed that line in...
When Bentely goes on about the 'square button, and the anolog sticks" I'll bet Sly's like
'Wtf are you smoking?"
Now that I'm older, I realize how awesome his dialogue was, even if he only had so much. I remember always wanting to play as him in Sly 2 & 3, he was friggin cool to me. Just the design the mystery, the fight, and the music! It was perfect for me as a wee babby.
Ross Douglas kicked ass at voicing clockwerk. Couldn’t have picked a better voice actor.
It was the late Kevin Blackton, you moron!
Flowers! :D
:D
Clockwerk: I will live...
Me: I doubt it.
I am alive..
***** Clockwerk Owl
You should never toy with your prey! then they have a chance to counter attack!
Clockwerk Owl Zergling has a point, toying around with your enemy can lead to disastrous results.
Clockwerk scared the absolute shit out of me as a kid. I remember looking out of my window terrified that I would see his silhouette along the horizon.
Am I the only one who was terrified of him?
Damn I wish they still made games like this.... nothing but greedy corporations, shitty publishers and sjw b/s now...
This is a perfect game, deff in my hall of fames.
I fully believe that Sly Cooper was a franchise with a great story and some really nice characters. Sadly, due to its weird sound effects and third-rate gameplay animation, it got left behind by all the other PlayStation games of its Era. If it was remastered properly, it would be amazing.
You know those video games you find set up at restaurants that someone's already gotten halfway through and there's no instructions on what to do and you're completely lost?
Yeah, that's Sly Cooper for me.
The bane of my childhood
If sly 5 comes out, Clockwerk would be like:
"I AM HATRED, I AM DEATH!!!"
What happens if you don't hit him when Bently tells you it's your only chance,etc.
Wow that bird must be legendary!
I think there's a greater mystery left unsolved that to this day has NEVER been explained. If Clockwerk is cybernetic, you know made up of robotic parts, then SOMEONE had to have built Clockwerk. But who? Who could possibly build something that lives for thousands of years off of hatred and jealousy? My theory is it had to be someone who despised the Cooper family. But the real question is what happened to Clockwerk's creator? Are they even still alive and if so, is it possible the TRUE threat has yet to be confronted?
In Sly 2, we see that clockwerk's brain is the micro-hate and Neala (Nela? don't remind how write it) went into a kind of electric spirit to take control of clockwerk (first mission in episode 8) . Maybe Clockwerk was at his creation another thief jealous of Coopers family and created this owl armor to kill them and staying alive all of those years.
Neyla
That voice! Ohohoohoh!
I was dumb and smashed his head in before I heard his lasts words when I played this game. Thanks a ton for actually letting me hear then!
Awww I just beat this, what a cute ending x3
Yeah pretty cute when he handcuffed her and left her in a volcano.
Mr. Cooper. What a guy he is. :)
