Sleeping Dogs, being the most underrated game , will remain underrated due to it being an open-world game, in the vein of GTA; as is the curse of many similar games. A heart-pounding tale of crime, justice and morality, Sleeping Dogs deserves its place among the best of its genre.

The game takes place in Hong Kong, which has a very nice environment in the game as well as the great use of both hand-to-hand combat, and using weapons later on in the game. In the game, you play Wei Shen, a kind but troubled man. He's an undercover cop infiltrating a triad criminal group called the Sun On Yee. His goal is to work his way up the organization, busting criminals as he goes, without getting arrested and/or revealing his true alliances to the police or the other members of the Sun On Yee. The combat feels fluent, as well as looking fun but unfortunately falls repetitive late into the game. This is not a very bad thing though, the main focus of the game is not the game play, but the story. And I will say, this game has a fantastic and touching story although I feel it could be executed better in some parts of the game I do not want to mention to not spoil anyone.

The game also uses Max Payne/Matrix type combat in some cases, where it goes in slow motion such as during vehicle combat to make it much easier to aim, and WatchDogs type hacking in some aspects of the game.

Since Sleeping Dogs is an open world game, transportation is paramount. You will spent most of your time, when you're not fighting or doing missions, driving around. Driving is one of the game's weak points, as it feels hard to control, which can be frustrating when you have missions where your goal is to not hit anything.

Overall, Sleeping Dogs: Definitive Edition is an amazing video game in most aspects, worth a play for sure!
