Sleeping Dogs : Forbidden In Hongkong #REVIEW NO.28
Sleeping Dogs: Definitive Edition is released a year after the very same incredible genre game is released, the Grand Theft Auto V. Do not be surprised if I will often compare what Sleeping Dogs offer with what's in GTA V. Immediately we go into the discussion. Enjoy!
Sleeping Dogs has a story that is often carried by a fictional story in Hong Kong, which is about crime. The main character in this game, Wei Shen, is a member of the police who gets the job to impersonate triad members, a Chinese criminal organization spread across Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, and others. For you fans of the film, may be quite familiar with the plot that sounds like the movie The Departed direction of Martin Scorsese, or Hong Kong's original film is Infernal Affairs.
Although the impression of the standard, but the plot of this game is very interesting. At least you will often be presented with a thrilling feeling about whether Wei Shen will survive in his disguise, or even criminal activity that he did will ingrained within him. One very interesting thing about Sleeping Dogs is the culture and language shown. The majority of the dialogue in the game is conducted in English, but with some dialogue mixed with Cantonese. Cantonese ias a one of the languages spoken in Hong Kong.
The main charm of Sleeping Dogs is practically the city of Hong Kong depicted in such detail. We've often been presented with an open-world setting in the American, European, or even fantasy areas, so seeing a city whose luxurious life and slum can come so close is a charm that you can’t find in many other games. Anyway. not all games will allow you around the city using a stolen motorcycle instead.
It will also be interesting to find while walking in the market area. Shouts of offers from pirated DVD vendors, butchers, to clothing shopkeepers with artificial designs will be found here. As Asians, of course it is very impressive to us, because the previous game rarely describe an area like this with such great resemblance.
However, this charm and detail must be replaced with a small area. I personally think is actually the area in Sleeping Dogs is pretty good, but when compared to games like Grand Theft Auto V, well you obviously expect too much. As a game, Sleeping Dogs obviously offers a virtual tour experience to areas we often meet in the real world, but are hardly ever exposed to video games, and it's really fun to do.
In addition to a totally different environment compared to similar game genre, one thing that I think is very special of this game is the part of the fight. If in a game with genres and similar themes you will only be presented with a firefight action only, then Sleeping Dogs really presents a cool fight action like a kung fu movie.
Here, you can kill enemies with your bare hands or use the help of the environment. Special controls for the battle themselves are so well designed that sometimes I think that this game is a fighting game or beat 'em up. The movements that Wei can do exist from punches or regular kicks, grapples or locks, and counter attack. In addition you can also build a combo that can be learned in the practice of kung fu.
Of course, as an open-world game with the theme of crime, Sleeping Dogs also has a union with firearms like another game. But if you look at the empty hand combat thrill in this game, it seems gunbattle be things that are not special anymore.
If the clay of his graphics to be honest as a gamer who is not too concerned about the visual quality, I do not feel there is much difference from the usual Sleeping Dogs and Definitive Edition in PC. It is most easily seen perhaps only on the more fog and the effects of the sweetener in this new version, but in addition you can also get a nice graphic with the old version of Sleeping Dogs on PC.
But beyond the visual quality, the biggest difference that you can find here is the content it offers. Sleeping Dogs: Definitive Edition sold along with all DLCs ever released for Sleeping Dogs. So if you previously had never played Sleeping Dogs altogether, Definitive Edition is the version that I recommend for you to take, but if you already have or already have this game, there will not be many significant differences that you can find.
As an open-world game, Sleeping Dogs really offers lots of new and exciting things you will not find in other similar games. Starting from a very interesting story, fun gameplay, and a very pleasant environment to explore. If you need an open-world game but are bored with the same environment, Sleeping Dogs is definitely a must for you to play.
