Drive Cars and Other Stuff in Sleeping Dogs

Hmm, is there any legal racing in it though?

@GenghisJohn: And what suggestions would you have for the game. "Sleeping Dogs", do you know the meaning behind the name or did you just type without thinking. GOTY right here.

@murisan: No not at all GTA has not half the things this game has, including favors, jobs, police cases, shoplifting, drug dealing, decorating safehouses, xp upgrades after each mission, so i would say that this game is way better than GTA.

hahah I like the style!

Did Squeenix go and make a GTA clone?

I was like this for the entire video.

now if it actually did that crazy cartoon thing in game, that would be a definite sell.

100% agree. Game looks great and all, but not sure its offering anything really that amazing over things like SR3 and GTA4. When it comes down to it, 65 vehicles isn't that much either if you're including boats, planes and bikes with the cars.

Also, this is probably the first time Ive seen a trailer try and sell being able to ram other cars as a feature.

I'm so happy this game was revived, and I think the art direction is really awesome and unique.

This trailer reminded me a lot of the stuff in Just Cause 2, which is great!

I hope the PC version has advanced graphic options and isn't just a console port.

wow. I am really surprised that this trailer is a relatively good representation of the city.

Every game before this projects Hongkong from the 70s, with slums and shit, and plenty of wooden houses for the heroes to crash into.

@AngelN7 oh, and cock fighting lol

Oh this has the good thing from Wheelman. When I played Saints Row: The Third I couldn't believe they didn't have that. It would have fitted their whole philosophy perfectly. Stupid, cool and convenient.

Worst game name of the year?

I think it's actually a pretty cool game name, assuming you're aware of the expression "let sleeping dogs lie". It conveys a lot, since you can assume people aren't going to let sleeping dogs lie, and shit is gonna get real.

However, the expression is gradually becoming more antiquated, so there probably is a whole bunch of teens who just think it's a super dumb title that makes no sense. That probably won't help the sales of this game.

Can you stop illegal cock fights that you don't actually see like in True Crime L.A? can you Karate chop a guy to death? this are the important questions this trailer is not answering.

Is "hell of" Brad's take on "hella?"

Hmm...if it has a bit more John Woo to it it could be good.

That's a forgettable title if I've ever heard one.

The game looks okay.

where are the dog's ....

Illegal racing?! Not in my video games.

Please control like Burnout. With arcade racers on the decline, I need games like this to nail arcade racing.

Also, it DOES look like Pursuit Force. That's cool. Certainly gives you more to do than your typical open-world crime game.

Action Hijacking!

I watched this on mute. Good decision. It's like the splash-title things were written in the language of the country the game takes place in and then put through Google translate.

watch out! this game has "illegal racing" and "RAMMING"

now if it actually did that crazy cartoon thing in game, that would be a definite sell.

I totally forgot that True Crime: Hong Kong was cancelled. And then picked up. And then renamed.

Man. I even wrote a post, once upon a time about that.

Anyhow, this looks pretty alright. I really want to see more gameplay come out of marketing first though.

Sleeping dog, hidden kitten.

Looks kind of neat? It seems like a lot of it will come down to if the car handling is any good, the controls look super squirrely in this trailer.

Shhhhh, this racing is illegal!

this looks like Hong Kong Wheelman. needless to say, that sounds pretty alright

The legend of Wheelman lives on. Admit it. It wasn't that bad.

This looks like Pursuit Force.

Worst game name of the year?

@Atramentous: Just Saints Theft Row: Paradise IN HONG KONG!

I hope sound effects for some the guns aren't final. They sounded very stock. They probably aren't since the release is still far away.

I hope this game plays more like Saints Row: The Third than GTA IV.

you know what i'm on board now maybe this could work out pretty damn well!.

Man, this is the game i want the most in 2012.

surprising, because it looks like a bunch of badass in one game.

Sweet

That it does. Sleeper hit of the year?.... >_>

Looks alright I guess. I'm sensing that It'll be mediocre at best.

Awesome, I am definitely not tired of these games. Whats this one called again? Saints Theft Row: Paradise?

I didn't know you can do the Wheelman hijacking. That's rad.

This looks pretty good.
