    • Trivia
      Originally intended to be the third game in the Activision-produced "True Crime" series (after True Crime: Streets of LA (2003) and True Crime: New York City (2005)), but was cancelled after Activision elected not to back the game in a market dominated by other free-roaming games made by other companies, such as Grand Theft Auto IV (2008) and Saints Row: The Third (2011). It had different art direction, level design, character models, slightly different storyline, different cutscenes, clothing, icons, brand, places names, soundtrack, some of the voice over actors were removed, some removed and/or changed places in the city, different weapons, combat animations and more. Eventually picked up by Square Enix, development was left in the hands of both them and United Front and the game was retitled "Sleeping Dogs".

    Smooth graphics and beautiful style and beautiful texture and amazing story. I just wish you could jump because in this game i used the kick in the air as a jump button because there's no jump in this game. I hope this game have a sequel but sadly the game company got closed down, but who knows the game company might open back up or a new company will get it and probably redo it. I hope the world doesn't give up on this game because it's a beautiful game. The DLC's are 0K. Do you have love in game it looks like a 2020 game. This game was ahead of its time that and Batman Arkham city.
