Sleeping Dogs: Definitive Edition Review

By Daniel Bischoff

Re-release this! *Roundhouse kicks for everyone*

Video games are one of the few mediums that get away with lightly touching up a few elements and rereleasing a product just months after the original. You won’t see recuts of Blade Runner on the silver screen months after its original run in theaters, even if you can buy twenty different versions of the film…

  • Appreciate the Cantonese (and the swearing)
  • ... but the transitions into English are awkward
  • Decent cast of characters
  • ... despite lack of character depth
  • Ending slightly rushed, story is good enough
  • Solid melee combat, adequate gunplay
  • Visually impressive open world of Hong Kong
  • Plenty of side tasks and missions
  • Social Hub, including mission replay
  • No difficulty setting
  • Few game-freezing glitches
  • Mahjong poker?! Give me real mahjong!

I attended San Jose State University and graduated in 2010 with a Bachelor's in English and a Minor in Journalism. I've been playing games my whole life and will continue to do so as long as they stay entertaining! Some of my favorite games include Team Fortress 2, Battlefield 3, Star Fox 64, Batman: Arkham City, Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem, Counter-Strike: Source, Super Mario Bros. 3, Kirby's Dream Land, and the list goes on.
