A video game that allows me to be a bad-ass cop who uses martial arts and combats against gangs operating in a shady underworld, just like my favorite action movies? Of course I completed this game 100%. If you've seen any movie starring Chow Yun Fat, Jackie Chan or Bruce Lee, this is a love letter to them in the best ways imaginable.

Great game, goes by the western interpration of "rule of cool" so the over-the-top sequences are still very satisfying but grounded in reality. The larger-than-life interpretation from eastern games and media is not nearly as enticing to me, so this is such a breath of fresh air to me. The gameplay is fun with optional depth. Combat isn't very hard or punishing but it feels really good to do the environmental executions. Technically speaking, it looks VERY good even today. It looks amazing for the time, too. That being said, it's unstable as hell. From mid-game and onward I had a lot of crashes and quite a few soft-locks. Thankfully the game saves frequently and after major events so there's very little data lost; only annoyance. !!! PARTIAL SPOILER !!!! And much like Tekken 8 Season 2, the game was clearly rushed at the end of its development. You can easily tell from how the story develops at the end; character and relationship dynamics change so abruptly and suddenly to neatly wrap things up. That was the one disappointing thing about it because I thought the story was going to end differently but it just completely dropped an entire aspect that made the story so god damned interesting in the last handful missions. The most disappointing thing about this game is that it's the only and final successor to True Crime. But oh well, these things happen.

Solid Game! One of the better non-Rockstar made GTA "clones". You get the cop elements, which give this game its own identity (that True Crime DNA). Plus you get a lot of the GTA-ness you are used to, but just slightly different enough to be interesting. Wanted to leave a review because this game never gets talked about, and to me, that makes it underrated.

Absolute classic. Great story, and lots of amusing quirks, and who doesn't love a game where you can walk around beating up randoms... Vehicle controls are a bit janky and some of the default button assignments are questionable, but otherwise great game

Probably one of my favourite open-world story based games ever made, there's just something about Sleeping Dogs that's hooked me in and had me come back to play and 100% it on multiple consoles and PC.
