    teknik anlamda yetersiz bir GTA klonu oyun ama oynarken çok eğlendim. Batman tarzı yakın dövüş mekanikleri ve yaratabileceğin vahşilik harikaydı.

    - Amazing story (if you have ever watched "The Departed", it's from that opera). The characters are well developed and you care about them.

    - Interesting police investigation side missions.

    Disadvantages:
    - Story is good but linear (you have no choices to make), so re-play-ability is not a thing.
    - Has bugs from time to time, like NPCs clipping through walls. Had to reload from control point 2 times, because the guy I was supposed to chase didn't want to move further.

    In general good game, especially if it is your first play through.    … Expand

    Für das Erscheinungsjahr echt ein herausragendes Spiel, aber auch jetzt noch!

    Das war eins meiner ersten 5 Spiele und wegen Call of Duty und Borderlands ist ein Singleplayerspiel damals in Vergessenheit geraten. Ich wusste es in der heutigen Zeit aber echt zu schätzen, ein wirklich unkompliziertes und bugfreies Spiel genießen zu können.

    If you want a Chinese style GTA like experience, this is the game for you. Set in Hong Kong, you play as an undercover cop and fight crime. The game is very well designed and is quite interactable. I was surprised with Sleeping Dogs to be honest as I hadn't expected it to be this good. Unlike GTA however there are less guns and more punching and kicking which is a lot of fun.

Infelizmente o ponto negativo é a falta da mecânica de salto, meio parecido com o Watch_Dogs, você precisa correr e apertar o comando para ele fazer um salto pré programado, o que buga o jogo e até irrita, também notei comandos com atraso, o que quebra a imersão da luta. Wei Shen é um ótimo protagonista e esse jogo merece uma segunda chance!… Expand

    Driving is great, shooting is great, fighting is great. It's got a bit of an arcade feel to it, but personally I am a fan of that. Especially since this is a super easy game to pick up and play in chunks at a time instead of one playthrough, I think. Pretty high replay value, and I love the entire setting and story.

Gameplay focuses on Wei Shen's martial arts moves, fighting, shooting and parkour abilities, and on gadgets that can be used for combat and exploration. Players must complete missions to unlock content and continue the story, but they may instead freely roam the game's open world environment and engage in both legal and criminal activities. The latter may incite a police response, the intensity of which is controlled by a "heat" system.

While it isn't exactly revolutionary in its idea or concept, and its story isn't revolutionary either, but this in no way means the game was unenjoyable. I believe it mixes combat and open-world well enough to create something that is different enough to not be considered a GTA clone. The story is interesting but nothing to really gush about, the driving is kinda of mediocre, and the combat can be frustrating. However, I feel everything works together to create a pretty enjoyable experience, the combat is different, the setting is beautiful, it has plenty of things to do other than the main story. If you see it on sale or just have it laying around, this game is definitely worth a try.… Expand

    However, even though there is a lot less you can do and interact with, the city does speak out to me a lot more than other games in this category. It feels a whole lot more personal, maybe due to it's strong focus on the plot, and therefore it becomes a much more pleasant experience.    … Expand

    Um dos melhores jogos da geração passada, a Square deveria olhar mais para esse game que tem um baita potencial para uma sequência.

    Por menos de 6 reais, esse jogo está praticamente de graça, pois é um dos melhores jogos em mundo aberto disponíveis no mercado, comprem sem medo de ser feliz, e aqui, vai minha análise sobre o game que tinha feito na primeira versão, mas deixo aqui para vocês que pensam em comprar essa delícia de game.

    Finalmente eu consegui parar pra jogar este game e fui do começo ao fim. Certamente foi um dos games que eu mais perdi horas jogando e me divertindo. A cidade é uma das mais bonitas em mundo aberto dos games comparável as obras da Rockstar com Liberty City e Los Santos.

    Wei Shen é um policial infiltrado na tríade Sun-On-Yee e a história apesar de ser pequena, consegue prender o jogador com os desfechos que vai acontecendo ao longo da história. Talvez o único grande ponto de frustração em relação ao game seja a campanha principal por ser curta demais, mesmo com as missões secundárias. E ao longo do game eu esperava que Wei tivesse um upgrade e conseguisse levar mais de 2 armas, normalmente como vemos em jogos de mundo aberto como GTA, Saints Row, Watch_Dogs entre outros, mas é compreensível já que o game foca na luta corpo-a-corpo.

    A ambientação de Hong Kong é uma das melhores que eu já vi em games mundo aberto ao lado do Empire Bay do Mafia II que consegue trazer o jogador para as décadas de 40 e 50. Também senti falta de maior interação com as namoradas de Shen como acontece no GTA, mas nada que tire a diversão do game.

    O que me deixa contente é que a United Front Games na época conseguiu fazer o que Saints Row e Watch_Dogs não conseguiram, trazer uma jogabilidade diferente em um game mundo aberto como o modo de combate que por sinal é bem melhor que o de GTA que continua a mesma coisa desde o San Andreas. Pode ser que eu esteja sendo otimista demais, mas vejo Sleeping Dogs mais promissor que o Watch_Dogs (que está em evidência) para ser um rival direto de GTA... Apesar de Watch_Dogs 2 prometer novas funções, mas fico com um pé atrás com os games da Ubisoft (apesar de gostar muito dos games da empresa) porque o primeiro Watch_Dogs também prometia e o produto final não foi o que vimos na E3 de 2012, além do histórico currículo de downgrades em seus games!

    O jogo foi lançado em 2012 e espero que a United Front Games junto à Square Enix possa trazer uma sequência de Sleeping Dogs seja na pele de Wei Shen ou de um possível novo personagem, com uma cidade maior, mais interações e um multiplayer para que possa manter o jogo vivo como acontece com o GTA V através do GTA online. A Square Enix tem um game na mão que pode crescer tanto quanto GTA cresceu. Se souber aproveitar a temática que o game tem a oferecer, terá uma grande franquia nas mãos.

    Não li mais nada a respeito de uma possível sequência, uma pena. Espero que nos próximos anos, tenhamos um Sleeping Dogs 2 e que a Square Enix saiba que tem um game promissor de mundo aberto nas mãos, basta saber aproveitá-lo. E só pra complementar, passou da hora da Square colocar jogos como Tomb Raider e Just Cause na geladeira e olhar mais para outras franquias, pois uma sequência de Sleeping Sogs seria incrível. Infelizmente, a United Front Games encerrou os trabalhos em 2016, então nos resta depositar as fichas apenas na Square Enix.

    Prós:
    Combate corpo-a-corpo
    Ambientação
    História (apesar de curta, é muito boa)
    Carisma do personagem (que é importante hoje em dia nos games)
    Torneios de artes marciais
    Boa trilha sonora (e muitas instrumentais de qualidade)

    Contras:
    História Curta
    Física dos carros
    Câmera dentro do carro
    Poucas rádios
    Pouca interação com os personagens secundários
    Falta de um Multiplayer

    Sleeping dogs is great game, because game reproduction Hong Kong very well.
    The main of the game is parkour and Chinese martial art.
    Also there is some guns like pistol, smg, granade launcher.
    Story is not that bad. Game's story is +B Hong Kong noire movie.
    For this reason, I rate this game point 8

    one of the best open world games I've ever played. the gameplay is very fun. every mission is unique and good. the combat is really fluent and satisfying. they even have a whole island for just combat challenge and it was awsome. the only complain I have about this game is that when you're driving backwards, the camera angle just flies around.

    I really enjoyed Sleeping Dogs, its not every day we get games based in settings such as Hong Kong, with innovate gameplay and an interesting detective story. My only real negatives for the game are based on being rather hollow when it comes to things to do in the environment, also many of the missions get rather repetitive. but over then that I really enjoyed Sleeping Dogs.

Still there is a quite a bit of honor infused in the story instead of primitivity. Also, both story and characters seem deeper as a result of it.
    Besides that, it also features better gameplay than GTA. Virtually all the minigames, the shoot outs AND the hand to hand combat feel great. Alright, the hand to hand combat isn't as good as in the Batman games and there is one minigame that is damn tedious and you have to do a lot (picking locks on MANY lockboxes lying around town) but other than that, it's all great. Graphics look a bit dated, yet it still requires a fairly powerful system to run smoothly maxed out, so it doesn't seem like they optimized it very well. And those minor gripes about gameplay and graphics are really everything that keeps me from giving this game a perfect score. Oh, it also has quite a bit to discover. Maybe not as much as GTA4 but if you are a completionist, my guess is that it'll take you 20-25 hours to get everything.
    [edit]I originally rated this "only" 9/10. But I played through it twice already and am still listening to the Soundtrack on a regular basis, wondering about when a sequel will finally be released. And when I think back to the last couple of years and what great games I've played, aside from various indie games, only "Sleeping Dogs" comes to mind. It's a shame that the leaderboards are so screwed up, otherwise I'd probably compete with others every weekend but it doesn't change the fact that this strong urge of still wanting to play it means that it is essentially a perfect game.[/edit]    … Expand

Overall though, the story is comparatively better than what most games put out.

    You know what else Sleeping Dogs does better at than most mainstream games as well? Being a good PC port. There are a plethora of customization options available and the performance is great (GTX770 2GB, max settings with high AA, averaging 90-100fps with a minimum of 60). Controls can sometimes be a little awkward with a keyboard and mouse, but it hardly impedes on the enjoyability of the game.

Este juego hace a los coleccionables útiles. Si consigues suficientes puedes conseguir mas vida, mejoras en combate, dinero, ropa y vehículos únicos, etc. Y si hablamos del combate, es similar al de Batman Arkham Asylum, no esta tan fluido, pero aun así hace un buen trabajo, y tienes mas opciones que en el ya mencionado acilo. Conforme avances obtendrás mejoras, como hacer mas daño, nuevos movimientos, y como eh dicho antes, los coleccionables te sirven para conseguir nuevos ataques. Como romper brazos y piernas. El titulo también tiene una gran cantidad de minijuegos. La historia y atmósfera es como la de una buena película de acción de Jackie Chan, puede ser algo predecible pero no la daría por mala. Llegas a conocer una buena cantidad de personajes que muestran ser mas que matones eh inocentes justicieros. Y uno que me gusta en particular es Jackie, un amigo que conoces al inicio del juego. Al principio tiene una forma de pensar algo infantil, pero se va dando cuenta de lo horrible que es el mundo real y eso le destroza. No sera perfecto pero no esta mal. Al final, este es un buen titulo, me a gustado conseguir los logros, y se me olvido decir que también tiene parkour, pero seguro que ya es mucho que leer, le doy un 08/10.

    The story is actually pretty nice also. The start and the ending are a bit rushed, but the game keeps the plot interesting. And the campaign is much shorter than GTA, but it is much more focused, and, to be sincere, I think I liked the story of this game more than the story of GTA IV. GTA IV tries to be immersive, but the campaign takes so much to complete -and the characters just keep coming kinda out of nowhere.

    The Gameplay is the funniest part on the game, sometimes missions might seem repetitive as you kicking some guys again and again, but you will still enjoy it. Bad thing about gameplay is, that it's VERY glitchy, mostly harmless but sometimes pretty annoying.

    The game is inferior to Gta and Saints Row in graphics in most areas but the story and the characters actually makes up for it. I enjoyed this game more than I did with Gta IV at times so it is an underrated game. It is actually unfair to compare this game to Gta because it has a smaller studio and this is their first open-world type of game similar to Gta in the genre. I think they did a very good job for being their first game in this game genre. It is better to play this game without comparing it too much to others imho because it gets more enjoyable that way.    … Expand

    Definitely one of my favourite open world games off all time. A storyline which keeps players guessing, lots of side-missions to complete, the majority of which are fun, and although the world is not as big as that of GTA V, it makes for some very heart-racing car chases. If this game were to be made for Online, I would have given it 10/10.

    If you like parkour, fighting and GTA, you will like this game. Graphic is pretty good and story is interesting. You will be part of japan underworld which is very brutal. I will appreciate better physx.

    Great game, the only bad thing is that's too short. They also should have explored the storyline better, with more exciting missions and more things to do in the world map. But it's a great game, you will certain enjoy it from the beginning into his end.

    The combat mode reminds Shenmue a lot. I really recommend play it with a joystick.

    Really good game with an intriguing story, nice combat system (similar to Batman series one), funny races with cars and a nice way to make u want to change and find collectables cause they actually give you bonuses. However the game world is plain and has no variety (probably because it is set in HK...) so i won't give it a full score.

    Overall not a bad game but not really spectacular. The main story is nice (and the story makes sense, unlike some recent games) but unfortunately there is no player choice to speak of, in a setting that calls for player choices. It is a very linear story within an open world. Most of the time you don't change anything either.

    First i wasn't sure about this game, but once i finished it i had no other feeling than "Wow i want more".
    This game beats the crap out of Any GTA, the story line and voice acting is by far its strongest part.
    Hoping for Sleeping dogs 2 :)

    Awesome GTA alternative, that's all I have to say. Just try it yourself. You will be absolutely amazed how awesome this is, only after you finish off Ming. Need I say more?

    Great game!
    Streets and voices in it are well designed.
    Most of the action/fight part is great in control,while most of the QTE reaction timings are very limited and must be remembered inflexibly to avoid attack/damage in routined arrangement by repeatedly pushing keys. Very good work for people to see the dark side of Chinese/Hongkong society in a exaggerated way. Biggest    Great game!

    Biggest falure:vehicle maneuver.Seems that the driving part was not tested sufficiently.When we want to just shift slightly for a better forward direction and are holding the backward button,the camera changes into a strange and useless side view,with the most important sraight forward or backward view blocked.
    Too much collectables.
    最大的缺点，车辆操控，即便不动鼠标，视角总是自动换成一个无用的方向，而最重要的正前和正后方却不能看到。
    补充：triad一词在西方世界的现代英语中仅仅指代主要由来自广东及其周边地区的华人组成的黑帮，至于其原意“三合”已经属于历史词汇了，所以游戏里的triad简单的翻译成黑帮就行了，而不是所谓“三合会”。    … Expand

    I would give this a 7.5. It takes a while to develop the martial arts training needed to beat up all the thugs and drug smugglers, but once you start learning a few of the tricks, it becomes easier. There's too much driving for my taste (no fast travel) and too many car and foot races but I'm sure many enjoy that aspect. At first I thought it was a bit tedious, but as the story progressedI would give this a 7.5.

    Consider it as a well-round and decent GTA expansion. A must-play for all GTA fans. Decent story, decent characters, shame about the fact that there should be nobody talking that good of an English in Hong Kong.

    Nice PC port. Controls work well, and the high-resolution texture pack helps the game look pretty damn good. The freeflow combat, reminiscent of Arkham Asylum, combined with the KH cinema-inspired style of the game help to create a memorable experience. The only issues are probably the lack of end game content, as well as the complete lack of difficulty.

    A great open world game. Satisfying quests, and an emotional component I was surprised to feel. I actually felt conflicted about some of my actions during this game. The combat isn't great, but the overall feel of accomplishment is.

    I especially enjoyed a number of the side missions and the driving aspects of the game. While not a driving simulator, the variety of cars and the chance to get into trouble/incentive for not bashing up the car you just stole added an element of fun to the driving.

    The game really shines, though, in its sense of immersion. The city feels as real as any city I've experienced in gaming. This realism adds greatly to the missions, the driving, and the overall plot/story of the game.

    While some games are a "solid 8", this game is more like a 10 in some ways and a 6 in others, averaging to an 8. If you like games with a variety of missions and an open world feel and lots to accomplish, this is great. If you require an excellent combat system, then this is probably a "pass" for you.    … Expand

    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.

    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]
