OXM presents the first Sleeping Dogs Xbox 360 review - "shorter than GTA IV, but sweeter"

"A Wei better game than we were expecting"

hiptanaka4303d ago

This one is looking surprisingly good for an open-world game.

LAWSON724303d ago

You say that like open world games suck

tigertron4303d ago

Looks like a game not to be missed.

Fishy Fingers4303d ago

Always nice when you go into some with low expectations, only to be pleasantly surprised. A rare occurance these days, with all the media, coverage and hype for everything half decent.

I'll probably hold out for a (Steam) sale though, I'm in no rush.

pr0digyZA4303d ago

Also looks like it has a good PC port, people who have played it said it has good performance and many options in the menu including frame rate limiter. (plus still waiting on what that hiRes dlc is for:its confirmed as free as well).

yeah good gta4 in most missions were pretty dull anyways because it wanted to achive realism.

Sleeping Dogs seems to have great variety.

It's A Crime That There's No Sleeping Dogs 2 Yet

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."

LG_Fox_Brazil35d ago

I agree, I consider the first one a cult classic already

isarai35d ago

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

CrimsonWing6934d ago

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.

solideagle34d ago

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

Abnor_Mal34d ago

Doesn’t Microsoft own the IP now since they acquired Activision?

DaReapa34d ago

No. Square Enix owns the IP.

Abnor_Mal34d ago

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.

watching the video is better then going through 31 pages of gamingbolt.

LG_Fox_Brazil181d ago

Do they explain in the video why there are two numbers 3? Starfield and Tears of the Kingdom?

xeniate175d ago

It's always refreshing to see games embracing the streaming community.

Bloodborne is a game I still restart and play every few months. I would welcome just a re release in 60fps with a visual upgrade. It's a perfect game. If I was king for a day I would include the randomizer mods because then it would be a kind of rogue like and I could play it forever.

gleepot381d ago

Sure, ill take a sequel to all of these.
