Overall, there's very little to complain about here. It could be said that at times the plot can get a bit disjointed if you don't do the missions in a specific order, and as with all open world games like this, there's always the feeling that you've done it before, however, these really are minor problems with what is otherwise a great title and better, a surprisingly good one given the low level of hype it's received.
Shang-Chi star Simu Liu is working to revive the Sleeping Dogs movie and hopes its success could lead to a long-awaited Sleeping Dogs sequel.
Please do. One of my favorite games from that gen. A man who never eats pork bun is never a whole man!
Square has their own GTA and they haven't bothered making a sequel. Yet they're wasting money on nfts and live service crap.
Gotta be more specific. Did it sell well to Square and their unrealistic expectations? Probably not. Did it sell well and garnered enough praise to deserve a sequel? Yes. They also bought the rights from Acti when it was True Crime so they must've thought it was worth it at the time so idk why they've let the IP die out.
According to Square Sleeping Dogs, Hitman Absolution and even Tomb Raider Reboot bombed on varying levels. They all dropped around the same time. All sold well enough but Square and it's lofty expectations got in the way. I remember Square was mumbling that TR sold 3 million + in a month.
As long as the game fits YOUR ideals eh? Whatever happened to artists creating what artists want...
Hey, they can create whatever they want. I literally said “I’d” be down if he doesn’t shove his ideals in it.
Whatever happened to consumers being allowed to voice what they want in a discussion forum, eh…?
Huzaifah from eXputer: "Sleeping Dogs from the early 2010s is one of the best open-world games out there but in dire need of a resurgence."
You say "yet" as if it's even possible anymore. United Front Games is gone, along with anyone that made this game what it is
That’s what happens when games sell poorly. And I’ve seen people wonder why people cry when a game sells badly… this is your answer.
Majority of the time it's true but if a company/publisher is big (in terms of money), they can take a hit or 2. e.g. I am not worried about Rebirth sales as Square will make Remake 3 anyway but if FF 17 doesn't sell then Square might need to look for alternative. <-- my humble opinion
Oh okay, Activision owned True Crime, but when that didn’t sell as intended it was canceled. Six months later Square Enix bought the rights and changed the title to Sleeping Dogs.*
*As per Wikipedia
Sleeping Dogs was a sleeper hit back then. It was fantastic. It actually still is. Would love a sequel to this, or at least a revive of True Crime series.
The past few years have seen some excellent open-world titles on top of the existing classics. Here are some of the very best that you should play.
watching the video is better then going through 31 pages of gamingbolt.
Do they explain in the video why there are two numbers 3? Starfield and Tears of the Kingdom?
This game totally wasnt on my radar until about 2 months ago.
I have to say I'm enjoying it so far and it has lots of nice touches that should carry on in other games.
I have no problems with games borrowing ideas from other games. Afterall, if something works, why not do it? Many ideas have become standards in gaming, and would be more noticeable by there absence if they werent there.
PS
Is it wrong of me that the first time I got to just walk around anywhere in the game, I started following asian chicks?
Oh, one thing, please fix the camera Square, I fkn hate it when it keep trying to center behind you. You try and look sideways while walking and the camera keeping switching back. Let me move it. Its even worse when your driving in a tight spot reversing back and forth and the camera doesnt know where to go.
I'm a weird one I guess. I just beat it and found it to be quite underwhelming. I thought the gameplay was pretty repetitive and I cared little for the characters as well as the pretty bland world they inhabit.
I'm one of GTAIV's critics, but playing Sleeping Dogs just made me want to go back to Liberty.
To each their own I suppose! But one thing is for certain - I'm salivating at the mere thought of Grand Theft Auto V now.
Im really loving the game personally!
I LOVE THIS GAME!
