    an amazing campaign, very powerful and awesome story, has some very original aspects to it and an amazing combat system. The only negative I have is that it doesn't have very much replay value

    Close to nice, but never close to perfect game.
    Minuses:
    - Lots of GTA borrowings, that wasn't realized quite well. - Very bad control of vehicles. - Quite bad graphics (night is quite cool, but in the day - it totally sucks) as for modern game that has been create for OS-s WinVista+...

    The story line was amazing, especially to somebody who has actually been to hong kong and know a bit about the life style there. This game captured many key aspects about the city. However, I found that the story line was quite short, and I ran out of things to do pretty quickly.

    Would have been a fantastic game if the devs concentrate on the strength and weakness of the PC. As it stands, this is just another **** console port - from graphics to gameplay to controls, it keeps on reminding me where it has come from. A little more dedication and it would have gotten a 8+ score just on the back of the story. Bottom line: Average.

    And then there's the incredibly ingenuous vehicle handling. Not only controls may cause lag and unresponsiveness for many users (as regards the PC version), but also when driving they feel just unrealistic. The city may boast realistic people but, I don't know, its structure just looks "empty", as seen in Just Cause for example. Although I must mention the amazing amount of details of some elements such as the market places.

    What I want to point out is there is no need to buy this game when Just Cause 2 costs 4,99$ on sale.    … Expand

The game offers a huge sandbox city to play in - but offers you almost nothing to do inside it. From tired racing mini-games, shallow beat-em-ups, to inane "follow the yellow beacon" side-missions, to a total lack of mayhem you can cause - Sleeping Dogs is but a linear romp through a poorly constructed character-based narrative... where the main character's development stops after the major twist. It's the tired and true "cinematic experience" games like Call of Duty are built around - nice visuals, a place to be, a person to follow, a cutscene to watch... but in the end, you're just wondering why you're going to burger town, or why you're doing any of the things the game tells you to do. Most of the game's major story missions are basically: "Follow the guy." And those that aren't, devolve into a "run from the police" sequence. There's never one moment where you, the player, make any decisions of your own. What's worse than that? Well, the fact, for a GTA clone, you're actively discouraged from causing mayhem on missions, as that reduces your "police score". This can be as arbitrary as scraping a guard rail costing you 25% of your mission experience. But don't worry, there are plenty of inane things to do to grind experience on. I won't even get into the story, suffice to say, it's built up very well in the beginning, introducing several interesting characters - but it never expands upon them, and instead stagnates into a head-scratching ending. There's nothing so awful with this "experience" (I refuse to dignify it as a game) - you might be thoroughly entertained for several hours at least, but it isn't worth $60 and it wasn't fun to play.… Expand

    -There are lots of side missions to keep yourself busy

    The Cons:
    -Most of the time it just isn't as fun as other games of the genre (GTA III: San Andreas, Saints Row III)
    -The game can't decide if it's trying to be realistic or not. Wei Shen is often able to melee fight 20 people at once or get into a gun fight with 20-30 people and he's always fine. I found that this broke the immersion a bit for me, and if I wanted to break immersion I would play Saints Row or Just Cause because at least you can do cool stunts.
    -Most of the side missions are repetitive and boring.
    -Controls are annoying (and can't be changed very much in the options menu), but it doesn't ruin the experience.

    On the whole I think this game was a decent way to spend 15 hours or so. I wouldn't pay full price for it though. Try to pick it up on sale for less than $10 and you won't be disappointed.    … Expand

On the plus side, the milieu certainly felt authentically Hong Kong-ish, some of the missions were quite fun and Will Yun Lee playing the main character was great (as opposed to virtually everybody else). The negatives are too numerous to count here, but include some very below-average controls (at least on PC) and some so-so graphics during day time. I found myself thinking that this would have been a great title, had it been released five years earlier. It baffles me that a game as poorly realized as this can get almost as high ratings as, say, Saints Row: The Third, which came out the year prior to this one. Sleeping Dogs is by no means a terrible game, but its lack of conviction becomes evident when, midway through the storyline, you realize that you've been mislead and you just want it to end, so it doesn't feel like you wasted your money.… Expand

If you're the type to truly get into the story of your games, you'll find yourself seriously displeased and surprised at some of the actions that go on in cutscenes.

    The combat system is similar to the Arkham series, where you can counter attack by simply right-clicking a highlighted enemy. Stuff like that. There's a of combos and cool fighting techniques you can take, and it just gives the game so much more variety. This is probably the first game in existence where I want to complete the sidemissions AFTER I already completed the story.    … Expand

So Sleeping Dogs does the same, only better than many similar games. The one thing that really stands out if the combat, lots of options and fighting reminds me of an old style beat up game in terms of just being great fun. Personally, for me it is the sand box approach and multi path character development options that really add up to a great experience backed up by the free HD texture pack. It actually feels like a new game because of these. I heard early patch revisions had a pretty crap options menu, that is certainly not the case in 1.5. Looks and feels good all round. Personally, I thought many of the other games out there felt very limited graphically but this looks a generation ahead and the gameplay feels like a step forward too.

    The camera doesn't listen to you. Sometimes it rotates too fast, sometimes it rotates too slow - I have no idea how I have such a problem.
    The aiming (with weapons) in this game is also extremely buggy - sometimes the reticle will get stuck and you won't be able to shoot whatsoever, sometimes you get locked away from the controls because of sticky keys (it seems to be an in-game problem, I have sticky keys completely disabled).
    The lipsyncing is decent on cutscenes, but when it comes to lipsyncing during in-game action sequences, it's terrible. If you sing karaoke, your lips will move incoherently, if you talk to someone while walking next to each other your mouth will just move like you're playing pretend-talk.
    The fighting system in this game is really fun, but the control glitches make it less fun, for some even unplayable.
    The UI is god-awfully large and will annoy the living heck out of you.
    I don't know if it's my hardware (it's not, this is the only game with such problems), or the devs, but the game is already in version 1.4 and all of these problems haven't been attended to.
    Maybe, someday, the game will be finally fixed and I'll be able to play.

The martial arts/environmental fighting aspect of Sleeping Dogs is interesting, but eventually becomes a little thin. I should also mention that I ran into a lot of bugs.

    Something to take note of is the huge amount of cutscenes in the game.

    Fighting mechanic in this game is unprecedented from other open world games right now. Definitely needs more 'moves' to keep it fresh, other than spamming the same keys throughout the game.

    Customisation seems a bit too bland and simple, there is little diversity for the character to change between clothes, or for example, car and car paints. Something could be added to it, making it better.

    Not to mention, looks of the entire city looks realistic in comparison with today's Hong Kong. Its definitely not one-hundred percent accurate, but believable.

    Lastly, the visuals of the game is really great. For example, you can see real lighting, ambient occlusion effect on the wet floors in the game.

    Definitely worth getting under a discount, but provided that you love third person open world games of course. If there is a sequel in the future, I would not hesitate to get it.    … Expand

It does have some very nice elements. The look of the game is quite nice and the martial arts combat is very satisfying, once you get the hang of it. But in every other respect, it falls short. You can roam around the "world", but it's completely sterile. There's nothing to interact with. The NPCs are dumber than a clothes mannequin. There are basically three types of encounters no more (1) you meet thugs and fight them, (2) you do something to piss off the police and they chase you until they get bored of you, (3) you buy something from a vendor. The missions themselves are completely on rails and when you start one, you have to finish it right then and there. You can't go off to do something else and come back to it later. Except for the fighting, where you can see that a lot of work was put in to get it right, the rest of the game play is sub-par. Everything feels sluggish, whether it's running on foot or driving a car. Driving is made even more unpleasant by the completely mindless camera that refuses to point to where you want to and NEED to look. You can steal cars, but you can't keep them, so you're denied even something as simple as collecting cars. Oh, but you can collect plenty of t-shirts and bad pants (for crying out loud, I could do that in real life if I wanted to!). Pretty as it is, try as I may, I just can't get into this game. I play it for 30 minutes at a time and get bored out of my skull and leave with a feeling that I just wasted 30 minutes that I'll never get back. This game desperately needs an environment with more life, NPCs with a shred of personality, a greater sense of immersion, and much more freedom of action beyond just driving around for kicks (another thing I can do in real life and don't need a game for). If it had these things, it could be a great game. As it stands, it's more of a virtual tour of a severely simplified Hong Kong with mindless bots roaming the streets like civilized zombies... with an occasional martial arts fight to alleviate the boredom. Oh, and yes, there is a story, and it's not bad, but it's not enough to hold the game together in such a sterile world.… Expand

The story and graphics are good. I never played to "see what happens next" but it was still enjoyable even though it was slightly held back by poor dialogue. The biggest problem with Sleeping Dogs, however, is that it is a poor port. The optimization is terrible. There is no reason for it to struggle to maintain 60 fps and the controls are God awful. I mean, who decided to make run and jump the same button? In order to jump while running, you have to quickly release the spacebar and then press it again and hold it down so you keep running. And right click to exit a vehicle? I accidentally exited vehicles so many times because of this terrible control scheme. Despite these flaws, Sleeping Dogs has enough content and is just about the right length so you don't get bored with it. Overall, I am disappointed in Sleeping Dogs. I expected less rookie mistakes from a game with such high praise.… Expand

    Sleeping Dogs has a stronger and more mature plot when compared to the many GTA clones out there and even pulls off a combat system that hits more than it misses. However, it ultimately suffers from the same pitfalls as its genre stablemates which means your enjoyment of the game depends on whether you find the mini-games and side quests fun.

ThereSleeping dogs is a game that came from under my radar and really surprised me in how good it is. I have never been to Honk Kong but the developers have made a stunning job with the city. The city looks great, it feels alive and its quite atmospheric to say the least. The story of Sleeping Dogs that follows a undercover cop infiltrating the triads was also surprisingly interesting. There wasn't a whole lot of truly memorable characters and there are some turns that i wished that the story would take that it didn't. But the story was still surprisingly good and really caught my interest. The world is also filled with collectibles,races, side missions and some mini-games. The races and side-missions was fun and collectibles was particularly enjoyable since they actually have an impact on the game. Some side missions and mini games did get a little bit repetitive after a while though and some side missions was quite shamelessly copied which kind of sucks. The racing in the game works alright even though its not really heavy on the realism. The melee fighting system works well enough and its probably the best in have seen in this genre. I does get a little bit repetitive though and in the end it comes down to button mashing with the occasional counter attack. The gunplay in this game kind of sucks however. The game is designed around the melee system and that is quite noticeable. In fact its quite rare to run around with anything other than your fist so don't expect to run around with an arsenal of weapons on you. To sum it up is Sleeping Dogs an interesting game and if you have an interest in the genre i would recommend trying the game out. Its quite different than other games in its genre and the game doesn't have any major problems that brings it down. The game do not however have enough things to do (took me 25 hours to complete almost everything) or interesting enough characters to compete with the big boy that should remain nameless.

    Яркая сочная картинка, необычный свежий сеттинг и клёвая боёвка не спасает для меня этот, в целом, добротный проект духовного наследия True Crime, чью первую часть я в своё время завершил с превеликим удовольствием. Данное творение для меня стало разочарованием именно в плане сюжета, а именно - из-за его клишированности. Единственное, что в истории для меня запомнилось спустя несколько летЯркая сочная картинка, необычный свежий сеттинг и клёвая боёвка не спасает для меня этот, в целом, добротный проект духовного наследия True Crime, чью первую часть я в своё время завершил с превеликим удовольствием. Данное творение для меня стало разочарованием именно в плане сюжета, а именно - из-за его клишированности. Единственное, что в истории для меня запомнилось спустя несколько лет прохождения, так это свадьба. А ещё тут худшая физика транспорта в данном жанре за долгие годы. Для одного прохождения, как глянуть разовый боевичок, вполне неплохо, но не более.… Expand

    Even after almost 11 years later this game is still incredible. Its GTA with martial arts and it executes it very well. However the controls on pc do seem a bit sloppy compared to controller versions on ps3 and 360. Its not perfect up to todays standards but its still a damn good video game.

    Существуют просто Зло и Большое Зло, а за ними обоими в тени прячется Очень Большое Зло. Очень Большое Зло, Геральт, это такое, которого ты и представить себе не можешь, даже если думаешь, будто уже ничто не в состоянии тебя удивить. И знаешь, Геральт, порой бывает так, что Очень Большое Зло схватит тебя за горло и скажет: «Выбирай, братец, либо я, либо то, которое чуточку поменьше»Существуют просто Зло и Большое Зло, а за ними обоими в тени прячется Очень Большое Зло.

    Unlike the previous ‘True Crime’ games, where there was a strict depiction of the city maps, Sleeping Dogs does not portray Hong Kong, inch by inch. United Front Games has implemented GTA’s novelties in way that winks slyly at Rockstar. In essence, what the GTA series has accomplished, Sleeping Dogs has carried out better and more elegantly. [October 2012]

    A solid GTA clone that ticks all the boxes but forgets to add the magic ingredient of improvisation. [Oct 2012, p.77]

    City action in an Asian style casts a fresh wind to the sandbox game genre, with attractive worlds full of details, great battle mechanics and cool free-run sections. [Sept 2012]
