Alright, hardcore gamers know all about what this is. For those who don’t, Sleeping Dogs is… How can I put this? Think True Crime but in Hong Kong. Sounds decent right? Well, get this. This game actually used to be called True Crime: Hong Kong but was eventually not cut out for approval. Someone else got the rights to it and named it Sleeping Dogs.

(Wikipedia) “The game blends open world elements such as action, street racing and role-playing games elements. The core gameplay ofSleeping Dogs consists of giving the player an open world environment in which to move around freely. Sleeping Dogs is played as an over-the-shoulder, third-person perspective action-adventure game with RPG elements. The player controls Wei Shen, a Chinese-American police officer as he goes undercover to infiltrate the Triad organization called Sun On Yee (A reference to real-life triad gang Sun Yee On). On foot, the player character has the additional ability to walk, run, jump, climb over obstacles and swim, as well as use weapons and Wei Shen’s martial arts skills in combat. Players are also capable of driving a variety of vehicles, including automobiles, boats and motorcycles.”
