You
basically play as an art thief who has just been hired by a wealthy art
collector to steal some incredibly expensive pieces of art. This art
collector is out to prove to his friend, who is also a wealthy art collector
that he has a better art collection. This supposed friend of the
person who hired you will not be beaten that easily, so he also hires a thief
to steal artworks. I imagine that at some stage you will have to
confront this other thief or race him to steal a piece of art or maybe they
have come up with something else, but I think there has to be something.
This
game sounds unlike any other game that we have ever seen: it is a
minimum violence, strategic, skilful, heart pounding, art-thievery action
game. Maybe it will even fit into some kind of Sub-genre, like Action-Strategy
or Action-thievery. I don't know what it will really fit into, but what I do
know is that I want this game and when Dolphin comes out, and I get one
(which I hope so), it will have to be one of the first games I get.
What
I mean by minimum violence is that you only get a small line of weapons: a
dart gun and chloroform. The dart gun will stun a guard for a short
time, but once he wakes up he will just run off and get help from his
friends. The chloroform will render guards senseless, but I betcha'
you won't get much of that just sitting on the ground, waiting for you.
The Dolphin version of the game will include multi- player capabilities,
enabling you to go against other thieves in an all out stealing frenzy. If
Dolphin has internet capabilities than playing online is surely going to
be a feature included.
Picasso
is not only coming to the Dolphin, but to all of the Next Generation
consoles. Of course, we all know that the Dolphin version will be the best.
