Sleeping Dogs 01

Slice and dice

The open-world game, Sleeping Dogs, puts you in the shoes of an undercover cop in East Asia.

As Wei Shen, you’re a police officer posing as a thug in order to infiltrate and bring down Sun On Yee, a Hong Kong Triad gang. While you can still pack heat and whack hoods with a well-placed bullet to the temple, Sleeping Dogs’ melee combat is the highlight of the action. Shen is a martial arts expert, able to splinter backbones with a well-timed grapple and dislocate jaws with a flurry of punches. The environment can be interacted with, too, such as when you introduce someone’s face to a brick wall, shove them in a dumpster, or cook them in an industrial furnace.

Like an RPG, there are experience points to be gained and spent, which award you with different skills, from fancy kung fu kicks to disarming gun-toting enemies with ease. To be awarded cop skills, you’ll have to behave like one – which means no to running over innocent pedestrians and unnecessary destruction of property, among other things.

Thanks to fluid, brutal combat, a gorgeous, colorful setting, and a tale rife with violence and drama, Sleeping Dogs is one of the best police games around.
