Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaOriginally 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".

Pork Bun Vendor: A man who never eats pork bun is NEVER a whole man!
- Alternate versionsGerman version was censored a little bit to avoid being banned or indexed and to ensure its USK-18 rating. The two notable changes: -Some brutal finishing moves were removed in favor of toning down the violence a little bit. -A cutscene that shows Lee getting grabbed and thrown into the witcher was censored. Screen fades to black before the witcher part happened. The Definitive Edition remaster on Xbox One and PS4 most likely retains this censorship in Germany.

Featured review
Welcome to Hong Kong ! (An Excellent Video-Game)
Open-World games are always popular among gamers . for instance GTA & Mafia series are 2 top Open-World series and I love both . True Crime was an open-world game that actually sold good then United Front Games decided to continue franchise and make True Crime : Hong Kong . Activision was supposed to publish it but for some reason Square Enix, publisher of Final Fantasy series announced that it has taken the charge of publishing this game and title also change to "Sleeping Dogs" . no one expected much from Sleeping Dogs but it did quite a feat . the game-play is perfect . Kung fu and martial arts are as exciting as Driving around the city . designing of the city is great . in the Sleeping Dogs Hong Kong is your playground . you can enter illegal races, gamble on cock fights or kick back some karaoke . Epic high-speed thrills like burning up streets or tearing up the sea in a vast array of exotic cars,super-bikes and speedboats is fabulous . Story is wonderful and Screen-play attracts players . I suggest you play this masterpiece and join the Sleeping Dogs.
