If you have played the Batman Arkham games then you will be familiar with the combat. The driving is also fun, allowing you to drive almost everything from mopeds to the fastest sports cars around the hectic city streets. The streets are busy and bustling and the market areas feel vibrant and alive. However, the story is not the only thing done well in Sleeping Dogs. United Front Games’ representation of a bustling Hong Kong is superb. While these side missions aren’t filled with the depth and attention that the story missions have, the sheer number of them means that you will not struggle to find something to do. You can do high speed races, help civilians you find on the streets or do police jobs around the city. In addition to the story, there are a lot of side missions in the game. This dynamic creates plenty of fascinating moments and the plot takes numerous unexpected turns as the Sun On Yee come under attack from rival gangs.
Wei has to balance his trust within the Sun On Yee and with his police counterparts. The aim is to infiltrate the Triad and bring them down from within, gaining evidence on them and other gangs within the city. The game follows undercover detective Wei Shen who becomes implanted within the Hong Kong Sun On Yee Triad. One of the stand out elements here is the story. While the game does not come as a surprise anymore, it still manages to be an enjoyable experience that should definitely be played if you missed it the first time around. Two years later and the game has be re-released on the current generation of consoles. The open world crime game was a crowded genre yet Sleeping Dogs managed to fill it with an engaging story and entertaining Batman-inspired combat. Sleeping Dogs was a surprise hit for many back in 2012.
