Sleeping Dogs Review


Sleeping Dogs review:

Sleeping Dogs ia an open world action-adventure video game developed by United Front Games in conjunction with Square Enix London Studios and published by Square Enix, released on August 14, 2012, for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360.

The game is based on a character called Wei Shen, a police and criminal agent that is living in China.

I played this game and found out it was awesome. You've got some weapons, but fisting a guy in the gut is so fun that you even forget you can just shoot  him with a gun.

The Good Stuff:

-Interactive environments during fights, nothing more rewarding than slamming a guy's head into a car window.

- You can participate in high-speed-everything-goes races, and then store your beat-up car in your garage only to watch your car magically be restored by the next time you open it. It's a strange yet wonderful phenomenom.

- You get your own house. You know, a place to sleep and the like.

-Karaoke, urban and police fights, furniture... hey what more could you ask  for?

The Bad Stuff:

-No multiplayer mode, promoting antisocial behaviors.

-No car customization. You're stuck with the car you're given.

-Weird and unatural driving. Sorta gives a synthetic or robotic feel.

-Small repertoire of weapons, you'll be stuck using the same guns over and over.

 -No airborne vehicles (helicopters, airplanes,etc.)

Conclusion: 

Sleeping Dogs is a really cool game based on Kung fu and  other martial arts. Despite it's defects, its a great game and  definitevely worth buying if you are into GTA or other similar games.

Cool Fact : This was the 
beta cover. The game was
originally meant to be called
True Crime, but the name
was later dropped for
uknown reasons.   

 

Score:

8.5 out of 10
Great

  2. Originally the game was gonna be a sequel to True Crimes: New York (would've been the third in the series). It was being developed by Activision for a long time but later dropped. Since the game was far in development. Square Enix bought it and renamed it to sleeping dogs (for legal reasons since Activision holds the right for the "True Crime" series).
