Deadsea 1993 Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 I know that its True Crime 3 but what are the pros and cons of the game. Me and my nephew are intrested in this game. Bout to play the demo in a minute but would really appreciate some feedback too from gamers that bought this game and played it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amacteur Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Why don't you have a look at the review and play the demo to make your own opinion? http://www.xbox360achievements.org/game/sleeping-dogs/review/ Also refer to this thread for thoughts/impressions: http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/showthread.php?t=384432 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tunaleg Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 I just traded AC3 (which I thought was crap) for this and I'm liking it a lot. The gameplay reminds me a bit of The Warriors (which is a very good thing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BSH 1975 Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 I played the demo on both consoles and I loved it..just need to figure out on which consle I'm going to buy the game for But I'm going to buy it when they reduce the price...because it has no MP, therefore there is no rush for me buying this game...might even buy it when they release the GOTY edition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
II Mortis II Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 The story kept me gripped throughout. A really fun game with quite a lot to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crepsik Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Great story, decent gameplay mechanics. I would say a solid 7.5/10 or maybe 8/10. The Nightmare DLC was a 2/10 due to it being extremely short and B-movie horror Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DODGYSAI Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 I would just like to go on record saying this is the most enjoyable game ive played all year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xEndriux Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 it's a nice game ..... not a great game but it was funny to complete it just a little bit boring cause you have to do the same thing several times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hottub Cowboy Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 I recently picked it up on sale and its pretty fun 7 the achievements seem easy. I hope the DLC goes on sale over Christmas as there are a few I would like to get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DecadentBeaver Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Well on recommendation from people here I went and bought Sleeping Dogs along with Hitman yesterday and it only cost me £40 for both brand new. I love sales. Now to find time to play it haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WOLVES R SWEET Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 really good not as good as true crime la and new york it was true crime hong kong but you knew that already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattDares Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 I really enjoyed this game. Little tip when fighting just get in a car and run them over. so much quicker lol. DLC isn't half bad as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carmona Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 Seems like GTA mixed with Batman fighting controls. SO far this game is awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schreckofant Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 (edited) I actually didn't like this game that much ... it has pretty decent production values (graphics are fucking awesome at night when it is raining....probably the reason why it's raining basically every night...) but everything you do has already been done in every other open world game out there. The missions are super boring (the same stuff over and over and over and over), the story is absolutely horrible (it defines cliche and predictable) and the stuff you can do in between missions is ... actually you can't to a lot of stuff besides collectibles ... and actually the story is worse than horrible....it's insultingly rushed and shallow. You plow through countless secondary characters, whom all disappear after 3 or 4 missions, there is nothing worth remembering here. The feelings of danger and suspicion were always a strong point of GTA, bc the game could really surprise you when you were least expecting it. In Sleeping Dogs you can smell the drama from miles away...in GTA it really hit you when someone died ... in Sleeping Dogs you're just counting the Drive-from-A-to-B-n-to-C-while-car-chase-fuck-yeah-missions for it to happn. At some point you don't even care about playing in China anymore, because it just feels like any other US setting. And the fighting system is broken as well and the initial style wears off pretty quickly, because you won't do most of these moves anyway. Counter OP. After that it gets pretty annoying and laughable that everyone settles their shit with fists in good ol' China ... Saints Row the Third was much much better than Sleeping Dogs imho, because this game found its place next to GTA, as a ludicrous but entertaining drug-ride, rather than trying to be a Ganster-GTA. The missions are much better, the story is better (...yeah..it really is better) and the stuff you can do is better as well.

GTA bored me (still haven't finished it) and while I enjoyed Saints Row 3 it felt more cartoonish then Sleeping Dogs. I think the story was well written. I also feel invested in some of the characters in the story (like Winston and his wife, along with Jackie). This game is easily better then GTA, in my opinion. Very happy with this purchase, working on completing it doesn't feel like a chore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riamu Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Completed the whole game and the DLC, eagerly waiting the sequel. I personally enjoyed it more than GTA 4. (The driving in this game is 100x better) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxJUSTINxx Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 I personally couldn't get into this game, tried multiple times but the gameplay mechanics are meh. And the city looks pretty bland, nothing made me want to explore. Might finish it one day. Not a bad game though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eggnogga Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 I just picked this up yesterday on Games on Demand. (Apparently I missed out on all the DLC being half off a couple months ago. D'oh!) I've watched a few videos and a couple reviews. Excited to start playing. Probably go after it tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHIRUNO99 Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 It's a really good sandbox game to play, a really good spiritual sequal of True Crime, which the first was so good, like literally the best thing I played last gen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
