Sleeping Dogs – the perfect composite game

"Releasing Sleeping Dogs at the tail end of the summer gaming doldrums was an absolutely stellar marketing move on behalf of Square Enix. Any later and it may’ve been washed away under a sea of established AAA franchises, it satisfies the itch for something new to play that isn’t another beige Spider-Man, or an indier-than-thou XBLA or Steam title. An open-world True Crime title fit the bill perfectly, satiating the desire for something fresh and exciting. Odd then that Sleeping Dogs, whilst a solid foray into the world of the Chinese organised crime, is one of the least original games in recent memory, but boy does it do it well." writes Jordan Garland of GamingBolt.com
