Sleeping Dogs - Xbox 360 Game (Retro Fam)

Pretty good game I must say...I like this 3rd person shooter. Sure there is better games especially if you like online playing games as I do. So I give it 4 stars do to no online playing capability just stat uploads and such. I don't play it much do to the fact that I am a online gamer. Hope this review will find you helpful.

I'm not that far into this game yet. I've played for maybe an hour. So far it has been fun. It isn't as open world as I thought it would be though. You are pretty much confined to certain areas running missions, helping vendors, and gaining experience toward your police side and your mob side.Like I said, I'm not that far into it yet so I can't really give a better review.

Sleeping Dogs was a wonderful game. It's very much a GTA clone set in Hong Kong, but considering that it's been nearly 5 years since the last GTA, this was a wonderful game. The story is very intriguing and it had me constantly playing just one more mission before I had to tend to real life responsibilities.My only real gripe with the game is that it wasn't longer. After you beat the game you can still play around and finish any side missions you didn't complete. Also, when fighting "grapplers", I didn't feel I had enough time to press the appropriate button to counter their attacks.The melee combat was very fun and a refreshing experience from the normal shoot em up style that is GTA. A lot of people didn't seem to like the driving mechanics of the game, but I felt they were just right for this style of a game. GTA 4 was supposedly more realistic, but it wasn't fun driving on it at all. As soon as you can buy a class A motorcycle, buy one. Their fast and you can easily zip in and out of traffic and once you get the hang of taking curves, you'll be cruising around Hong Kong in no time.I'd definitely recommend this game.
