Sleeping Dogs

[JOSEPH X]

Map is sweet any translation on the district descriptions?

Docks (A) Container ships, big warehouses, polluting industries (?) here's where a lot of Wei Shen's adventures occur.

 

Central (B) The centre of HK's metropolis is defined by its skyscrapers, big banks and big gangster bosses

 

North Point © Here you'll find a typical Asian night market, narrow streets and a great place for wild chases.

 

Kennedy (D) This district is on the west coast of HK, and it's where the rich have built themselves beautiful villas.

 

Lamma (E) Just off HK this island is sparsley populated, that's why it's farmed with drug plantations

 

Aberdeen (F) In Aberdeen you find those typical floating buildings. And yes, you'll be piloting a diverse selection of boats.

 

Sweet indeed.

It's nice to know that u all like the screenshots and the game itself. But I'm just wondering will there be a Flyable vehicles in this game? Cause one of the screenshot has a speedboat. So is it possible to have a flyable vehicles on this game?

Good question. I hope they're saving that as a surprise. I wont be too dissappointed if there's not, hopefully. Maybe originally there wasn't and now that Square Enix have it, they'll put it in.

Yeah just like what they did in JC2 they have a variety of flyable vehicles.

Gamespot revealed there was not going to be any planes.

 

Lets hope they add one or two in before the game is released later this year

We are not going to need that if we get all the action on ground, I got big expectations from this title.

/\ wow, they're amazing dude, nice work.

 

From what I saw, GTA V will have a great rival this year.

[Dobleh]

 

Some guys over at the forums at sleepingdogs.net found an image of the map.

 

HERE

 

Could've been from before it was taken over by square but it nonetheless provides an idea of the scale we're talking here. 

Dude, could you give me the direct link from sleepingdogs.net?

Ah nevermind. Just found the thread

Thanks Broseph.

 

As for there being no planes, well that's OK. The emphasis will be on hand to hand combat, so I've a feeling I'll be out of my car/vehicle and being on foot, thus giving the map a huge size in itself.

 

[gta_fan28]

Yeah that's fine with me if there is no flyable vehicles in this game. And it seems it's not fit on this game cause this is not GTA and JC2.

[Narcis_speed6]

Made a little comparison between what they had done on true crime and the actual sleeping dogs.

 

 

 

 

[gta_fan28]

Nice comparison but I like Sleeping Dogs it looks bette than True Crime. Especially the Protag of Sleeping Dogs looks cool compare to True Crime.

 

 

 

No need to quote all of those images.

Yeah... now that you think about it... you can give a little thank's to Activision for canceling the game so S.E. could eventually come along and polish it up just like we all knew they would. They game's looking really good and I really do look forward to playing it.

[freak2121]

Sleeping Dogs looks better but I think the lighting is a bit lacking. True Crime's lighting was overkill but this one looks dead and boring.

[HOTMILFDAD]

I actually prefer TC's lighting.

It gave the city a bit more life.

 

Like freak2121 said, it looks..boring.

 

But I actually really do want to try this game out!

and it comes out wo days before my birthday?

And the running style look's a bit better in TC...

 

But, the game is still in Alpha - so it's bound to eventually change somehow.

Exactly my thoughts, hope they are going to add a little more depth to the lighting, here are some more comparison shots.

This looks like it has the same faults as it's predecessors, unpolished gameplay, and if the storyline is as bad, I think I will let this Sleeping Dog lie...

They should've kept the leather jacket.

The leather jacket is in Sleeping Dogs, the one with white t-shirt is True Crime.

[GTAIndonesia]

Kinda disappointed since Nick Kang won't appear anymore

Box Art:

 

[G The Generous]

LOL! look like it was draw by Paint

not bad though

[mrpain]

Dude, that's a badass boxart. Reminded me of GTA III's artwork style.

 

I'm placing bets that the driving mechanics will suck. Don't ask my how I know, I just feel it.

I was just thinking the same thing. They could have gone with a different drawing style, but it's good nonetheless.

[Mister Pink]

Yeah, I like the way the stripped it down to art, not just a modern - render. Like 'classic' animation or drawing style. There's lots going on it.

[JOSEPH X]

It looks like a drawing by one of those autistic geniuses

 

 

Edit: The box art is actually done by Tyler Stout, a poster artist who also did this:

Yeah, sorry to go little off topic but that autistic guy that drew Rome and New York from memory was crazy. Nice find.

 

Can't wait for this game.

[Narcis_speed6]

The image looks good, only it was compressed bad, here is a better version

[Mister Pink]

Very good, Joseph, well found. It's nice artwork, indeed. Glad they're actually putting budget in to the artwork.

[kudoboi]

[Creed Bratton]

It looks great. It really does. If it ends up being a success, we can hope for more Sleeping Dog games in the future. Which is a good thing since the market lacks free roaming cop games.

[Claude4Catalina]

it's looking good, guns are looking and sounding awesome. driving does seem like it'll be a bit PS2-era ish, not a bad thing for a bit of nostalgia.

 

also, GTAvanja, where's you avatar from? I seem to recognize it from somewhere
