Surprisingly good!
The world is phenomenal in this game. Hong Kong looks amazing, especially on rainy nights when neon lights are blazing, and the reflections are very clear.
Gameplay-wise, Sleeping Dogs is really fun. The melee combat is amazing, although, in larger fights, they do seem a little weird. It looks funny when you fight like 20 men, and 18 of them just walk around looking at you hammering the other two. The gunplay is something that doesn't stand out at all, really, just like the driving mechanics. I didn't mind these at all, but they weren't particularly great either.
Storywise, Sleeping Dogs is great. Wei Shen is a wonderful character who seems perfect for this setting. Other guys, like Jackie, Winston, and Dogeyes, are really cool, too. I liked the whole story, and the ending was nicely done as well.
Overall, Sleeping Dogs was great! I have no glimpse of an idea why this damn thing didn't get a sequel, but it should. One of, if not THE best "GTA clone" ever made, at least the most interesting one. - 🕗
