Everyone : 'Cyberpunk 2077 Review'
Colourshed : 'Sleeping Dogs Review'
Based
But tbh It reminds me of Cyberpunk. On the current day, with low specs the graphical differences are not too far apart, considering the years..
Lmao cyberpunks city architecture reminded me of this game’s city
@@Cj-xt6tv well yeah, uses Chinese and Japanese themes in the city
Yeah, one of em is overrated.
A man who never eats pork bun is never a whole man
No hes a Muslim, not a godless boi.
@Lynchology101 You are right about Yod Hay Waw Shin Waw Ayin(YaHuWSHuWa). A somali offered me a koran and I told him I have the truth in my heart and rejected his offer. So he said " I told you what I believe, so you tell me what you believe." And I told him about The Father YaHuWaH and Son, YaHuSHuWa and when he repeated YaHuSHuWa, we heard a loud ovation and he even said it was angels and we saw a horizontal rainbow and a cardinal was flying across it and we both said it was a miracle. But he is still muslim. Even though the LOUD CLAPPING OVATION happened when the muslim somali said YaHuWSHuWa.
No one was around us when the loud ovation happened and he was looking behind me and I was looking behind him to see where the ovation came from because the sound of the ovation surrounded us and my heart was pounding in fear like what just happened?
No matter how much I've stalled THE INEVITABLE FUTURE TIMELINE, THE INEVITABLE FUTURE TIMELINE will come into fruition.
1. The sick children will be healed with utterrance of THE NAME ABOVE ALL NAMES, YAHUWSHUWA.
2. The heavens will open on Earth for all to witness as the angels will commune with the healed children as the children heal the sick and feed the poor in THE NAME ABOVE ALL NAMES, YAHUWSHUWA.
3. The multitudes all over the world will learn of YAHUWSHUWA. As that is the true Good News that will be preached and demonstrated for them to witness.
4. AT THAT POINT THOSE MULTITUDES OF PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WORLD WHO CALLED UNTO YAHUWSHUWA TO FEED THE POOR AND HEAL THE SICK WILL KNOW THEY WILL NEVER DIE OR BE HURT DURING TRIBULATION.
5. THOSE HUMAN MULTITUDES WILL LOVE EVERYONE, EVEN THOSE WHO HATE THEM BECAUSE YAHUWSHUWA TAUGHT THEM THAT HIGHEST LEVEL OF LOVE WILL SHOW THAT YOU HAVE ARE SINCERE WHEN YOU CALL OUT TO YAHUWSHUWA. YOU WILL HAVE THE HOLY SPIRIT AND REALISE YOUR EXISTENCE WILL BE LOVE AND PARADISE.
6. THE ANGELS WILL SEPARATE THOSE WITH HATE IN THEIR HEARTS AND INTENTIONS OF VIOLENCE. AS THOSE WHO CALL UNTO YAHUWSHUWA WILL NEVER DO VIOLENCE EVER. SO THOSE WHO CHOSE TO FIGHT WILL BE DOING SIN.
7.THANKFULLY EARTH WILL BE CHANGED TO HEAVEN EVEN BEFORE THAT PROCESS, WE WILL BE WAITING AS OUR BODY PERMEATES WITH THE BEST FEELING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT DWELLING WITHIN US.
I FORGOT TO MENTION PEOPLE WILL BE RAISED FROM THE DEAD IN YAHUWSHUWA'S NAME AS THE SICK IS HEALED AND POOR BEING FED HAPPENS.
Re: He made the ILLUminati an ofFer thEy Could not refusE!!
Quoting: AlphabetA "They can certainly refuse, but refusal will result in falling forever down the deepest depths of this hell we're all stuck in.. So, why not just help everyone out of here, with everyones help?"
"Love those who hate you and persecute you." -YAHUWSHUWA
"Forgive them. They know not what they do." -YAHUWSHUWA
"None is good but The Father(YAHUWAH)" -YAHUWSHUWA
"“Put your sword in its place, for all who take the sword will perish by the sword." -YAHUWSHUWA
"Those who understand WILL NOT TASTE HARM OR DEATH." -YAHUWSHUWA
"The man aged in days will not hesitate to ask a little child of seven days about the place of life, and he shall live; for there are many first who shall be last, and they will become a single one." -YAHUWSHUWA
The final tribulation will be conquered not by violence, but by FEEDING THE POOR AND HEALING THOSE WHO ARE SICK AND RESSURECTING THE DEAD IN YAHUWSHUWA'S NAME
I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance. -YAHUWSHUWA.
Amen.

I feel bad for this game not having a sequel, its a really underrated gem, super fun game, i enjoyed a lot more than gta v for sure.
How? The physics and animations are so bad compared to GTA V. Like, I can understand it has better melee, but, that's it.
Gameplay shenanigans wise loved GTA 5 way more. Story wise Sleeping Dogs was better.
@@geniusn8343 yeah gameplay wise GTA 5 was way better. But sleeping dogs definitely had a better setting/story. Though definitely parts to Sleeping dogs storyline.
@@destynova4512 story and setting are completely subjective. It's okay if you liked Sleeping dogs on that area more. Setting wise, it's not Rockstar's fault that los Angeles looks that way. Also story wise, I think plot is definitely much better in sleeping dogs. But dialogues and writing are better in GTA V.
@@geniusn8343 yeah can't deny the way people interact in GTA5 is superior. Guess for me an American the setting of Hong Kong is far more interesting because it's foreign and never been there. When you an American playing a game based in America and places you actually been to or lived, shit gets boring quick. Like oh look generic city lol.
14:36 always found it hilarious how Wei would just casually break students' legs and smash their faces in for 'training'
Then immediately poses. Thank you for the
lesson. While the students are hospitalised.
Wait, you don't do that in your classes?
because life lessons are learned thru pain
@@mbank3832 not true at all
@@tissue869 it is true. Truer then True Crimr LA and NY comebined
It's kinda sad this game didn't recieve much love , i would love to see a Sleeping Dogs 2
R.I.P Sleeping Dogs 😔
CP2077 has some of that Sleeping Dogs vibe because of all the neon. Still wish there a was sequel.
@@xanzibar true, I thought the same thing. Has a little bit of Yakuza in it as well.
@@rastas_4221 Righteous, I like Yakuza. I wish there was a GTA-like game set in Japan.
When I first saw cyberpunk 2077 visuals the game that came to mind was sleeping dogs, it looks so good for a game of its time and the reflections are so good.
RIP Hong Kong...
The flying jump kick in this game has to be one of the best animated, most satisfying attacks in video game history
Ok I'm booting this up again just to fly kick some poor pedestrians. If I remember right it works on bikers too..:D
@@807D14M0ND5 yes! I used spend hours running around ragdolling random pedestrians and bikers
I love the charged single kick with the quick follow up
I love how this game explores the "undercover cop caught between two worlds" scenario without resorting to boring clichés. Instead of being about Wei having contrived moral dilemmas it shows him as capable of leading the double life and explores the mental cost of doing so. It's even reflected in the gameplay with having cop and triad XP be independent of each other.
well.. by the end of it he kiunda becomes more of a triad then a cop
It still shows the police in a way too good of light to be realistic.
@@BoleDaPole hmm.. Well... did you want cops dealong drugs to kids?
i mean..the main villain is a cop?
@@BoleDaPole Bruh, the main villain is literally a corrupt high-ranking officer lol
@Lynchology101 oh boy I never thought I would have to say this in 2021
*Ok boomer*
The pork buns in this game are wei too good.
Oh my god. Get out and don't come back.
I normally think puns are cringe, but this made me chuckle, not going to lie.
A man who never eats pork bun is never a whole man
No u must not eat them arrest the pork bun guy (srly ive never eatan a pork bun in the game)
Ho li fuk that was a good juan
One of the best games I've ever played. Seriously underrated.
Just started playing it on my ps5 off a sale. Greatest purchase in a long while!
It was good, lacking in a lot of areas but a sequel could have sorted out the bits that were lacking. But unfortunately they cancelled the sequel really early in development though.
Honeslty this game isn't stable for me since it would crash alot on the PS4
@@sleepy8500 I've only ever played on PC so I can't comment for PS4
Agreed. I’m glad I bought it as soon as it was released. I was pleasantly surprised at how amazing the game turned out to be. Makes me sad the sequel is never coming. I’d say the game is the most underrated of it’s entire generation.
This game is honestly one of my favorites from that generation.
If this game came out now with updated visuals , with cyberpunk being complete arse for the moment, and no GTA 6 on the horizon, it would be massive I'm sure. Great game.
"for the moment" Na man, Cyberpunk will always remain arse.
@Aidan Last thats gonna take some time.
@@ZaveAres Same thing said about Sleeping Dogs is true about Cyberpunk, the story is deep enough to warrant playing through, even with the game's overall shortcomings. There's 7 endings to get and they aren't just one choice at the end.
That would be awesome but it kinda blows me away how good it still looks
This game actually made me fall in love with Cantonese culture, especially the songs, soundtrack, general vibe of the city as well as the language being such a prominent part of it. The immersion into Hong Kong was so impressive and believable for its time
Sadly Hong Kong is not the same anymore.
@@OnTheLeftHandSide Wei's line in the Wheels of Fury DLC is so sad now...
"We're not China, we're Hong Kong!"
@@AICW I haven't played the DLC! Thank you for telling me that!
@@AICW Hong Kong IS China though. Like it was colonized by the British but that doesn't make it NOT China
Man I loved going to the fight rings in this games
Righteous, me too
@@MerlautJones True Crime: Hong Kong
Thank goodness you reviewed this game! Missing Sleeping Dogs would've been a True Crime.
I saw what you did there 😂
thank god he didn't sleep on this
Ha love the play on words
No True Crime was done in this review
@PRLA oh my lord dude we know that, he made a joke
Also Sleeping Dogs is criminally underrated
Yup
Love the atmosphere in this game!!
Ah I see what you did there
It is!
so many people are _sleeping_ on it
One of the most overlooked and underrated games of all time.
As a Hong Konger, I truly want to thank the researchers for all the details in this game. It gives a immersive experience of Hong Kong to the players. I am glad the vibrant and free part of Hong Kong is brilliantly captured in this game.
The game which we all thought was gonna be shit and another "GTA Clone" but turned out to be something good and extremely underrated.
*This game was wei better than I expected.*
Yeah l wish more people play this game it's so fun
I did expect this to be good when I first play this it’s basically true crime and GTA but my god I love love sleeping dogs we could of gotten a sleeping dogs 2. And made it even better. Great Review
@@soapyguy6483 Agreed
@@joseguevara754 I hope SD2 comes out someday.
Way*
This game at night in the rain is one of the most beautiful landscapes I've ever played in
This game has it all, i can't understant why it's so underrated. It's even more underrated than max payne 3, Jesus
Probably because people care more about GTA or Saints Row.
@@JurajKa GTA*
Sadly people only see GTA ripoff. I did back when it came out. But I played the remaster for $5 and although I wouldn't call it a masterpiece, I would gladly play a sequel.
@@DV-ou1yu I agree with your opinion.Normal people don't know the difference between GTA and other similar games. They should definitely do a sequel of Sleeping dogs.
Nigga, dis game aint underrated do you even know someone that doesnt like it? Dis game is known and loved
TH-cam: "So, are you a reckless game reviewer, or a slow one?"
Colourshed: "Try capable."
ayeee nice reference😂 love this game so much
@@cactusjack1336 Glad to see someone got it lol, next thing we've to do is gather money from the night market
Absolutely loved this game when it came out, so many games were trying to be GTA clones back then and this was a breath of fresh air
The DLC for this game was amazing. This game is one of the most underrated games ever. As a Chinese person, I loved contrast between Wei’s American English and the rest of the world’s Cantonese. I sometimes chuckle at the NPCs cussing every now and then.
Sleeping dogs is disgustingly underrated
would you look at that! his channel has gotten 4k subs! its growing again!
We need SD2. Like really we need it even if it's a new studio.
@@Lazer-bp9lf not gonna happen
He’s back!!!!!!!! Absolutely love these reviews. I even watch them for the games i dont know
most games were introduced to me by this guy. I played and bet the GTA Series thanks to him.
@john doughh No i meant games other than GTA, Gran Turismo and Forza were introduced by this guy. I played GTA Chinatown wars when i was little but other than that no GTA Games were played by me. His reviews made me want to download and beat them all. GTA IV and San Andreas are my favourites.
On a technical level, the PC version is much better. The Definitive Edition is fine too, but does change the lighting a lot, which kinda detracts from the original look.
I honestly don't understand why ColourShed insists on playing every game on console. Especially when the game in question looks and runs far better on the PC than on console and is fairly easy to run even on a mid-tier system from 5 years ago on top of that. I just don't get it.
@Brupcat maybe he just prefers Console, nothing wrong with that at all
Yeah, whatever console version he's playing looks horrible. Low res textures and jaggies everywhere...
@Brupcat He could be like me and is incapable of playing with M&K for any amount of time. I also like consoles because of the simplicity. I find if there are 20 setting options to fiddle with I WILL fiddle with all of them for a looooong time.
Maybe it’s to show the game in its raw form without possibility of hidden mods and settings
I loved this game. I remember playing the Definitive Edition all the time when I first got my Xbox One.
Got it for free on Xbox Live Gold. Absolutely loved this game.
@@Lazer-bp9lf that was in late 2013 or early 2014?
What's the different with original version?
Is the Story getting longer?
@@Iychoenk It's pretty much the base game with all the extra DLC added in.
This game was definetly a sleeper hit and i honestly had better time with this than any gta. Definite edition especially
Play gta 4 if you haven't
@@ZaveAres who hasnt lol. 4 is best gta tho
@@ZaveAres Bruh it was also better than GTA IV, you people really need to stop pretending that it was the greatest game of all time when in reality, everyone hated and shat on that game because it was (and still is) a massive pile of dog shit compared to San Andreas and V's story mode when it came out.
@@davidr.7883 That's a lie. The majority of people think GTA IV had a superior story than GTA V. That false "statement" you made came from up your own ass.
I recently replayed GTA IV, GTA V and this. This was far better than those too. Gameplay is a bit wonky here and there but overall much more fun.
4am, getting into bed, about to close my eyes and I see a new video from you? You already know which one is more important here.
I personally love and recommend this game to anyone and everyone, even in 2020
The legend said, everytime someone mentions *Sleeping Dogs*
Everyone goes to re-install *Sleeping Dogs* again to play it
There are no sleeping dogs in this game, they lied. Other than that this game is _Wei_ better than I expected. Especially the meat buns xD
*_"A man who never eats pork bun is never a whole man
"_*
A game i hated when i first played it. Yet when i revisited i completed everything there is to do. It's an amazing game.
Explain why you hated this at first
You hated this game? Explain yourself!
I feel you I just didn't care for it at first seemed generic and boring hard to explain but I appreciate it now
@@NewAgeSlaves It is generic and boring. Nothing changed.
@@gaminghq97 i thought it was yet another carbon copy - GTA knockoff with nothing to differentiate it, and ive played most GTA clones. So i just moved on to other games. I returned to it because i always thought the hong kong setting was cool. I gave it some time and then i loved it. I don't think i've ever changed my opinion so much about a game as this one.
19:02 Dude went flying off that hit 😅
Great game. Shame there's no sequel.
As someone born and raised in HK there were 3 aspects they could've implemented that they probably couldn't have in the first game. HKs verticality, the MTR and more of the outer new territories area, towards the border of Shenzen. Maybe a mission to Macao too.
You and minimme uploading on the same day is so nice.
I would love to see Sleeping Dogs 2, while again fighting side-by-side with King!
“A man who never eats pork bun is never a whole man”
Actually this game was going to be its own before True Crime. It was called Black Lotus, a title I personally think is better. Anyway, when Activision took over publishing they wanted to market it as a game that all ready some clout, instead of launching it as a new IP. So they made it a True Crime game.
So originally, it was never supposed to be True Crime game.
F.Y.I Pretty sure there's a Sleeping Dogs movie coming up with Donnie Yen in the lead as Wei Shen.
Are u for real? That would be dope!
Real shit?
yes Donnie Yen confirmed that.
It's been years since we heard of it though. Looks like its in development hell
I actually revisited this one month ago to get the platinum (eazyyyy). I knew that it wasn't a super popular game, but I thought that it was respected among all the gamers. Reading these comments, I guess it actually was kind of a gem. It was a very fun experience nonetheless
SPOILER ALERT...
That scene when you go to try and rescue Jackie... again and you see him dead on a meat hook actually made me feel sad and understand how Wei felt towards Jackie, it come out of nowhere and there is nothing you could do and you just feel hopeless and that is why I fell in love with this game it Immerses you in the world and puts you in Wei's shoes.
Sad that this game never got that much praise and even sadder that we never got a sequel as this game NEEDS one
Literally one of my favorite games.
Such an underrated game. Was one of my favorites. It had the best combination of story, characters, and gameplay, and it was amazing.
This is a game that I'd say will have a devoted cult following in the next half a decade or so. It's one of my favorites.
Loved the story and the combat is so much fun. One of the best open world games outside of R*
Such a fun game. The combat was pretty addictive to me, and the Zodiac Tournament Island DLC was fun for me since I was so into the combat. I was ready for this to become a franchise so I'm bummed there was never at least one sequel.
Rip Winston, Peggy, Uncle Po and Jackie Ma.
Love your videos, glad to have you back! So much more interesting than the average ”ign-review”. Greetings from Sweden
It's funny how Emma Stone was a throwaway character in this one lmao
Man, I LOVED this game back in the day, still play the definitive edition from time to time
I’ve played through this game like 5 times, I love it. This honestly is about to make me download it again for another playtbrough. I really wish we had a sequel, even if it was a new story.
Jeez I remember this game being all over the place, everywhere. From Ads on tv to bus stop posters.
this game is my childhood. i remembered playing this game in class just before my teacher came XD
One of the best games of the last Decade. I enjoyed playing Sleeping Dogs, Mad Max, and Batman Arkham Knight during Quarantine.
This game deserves a sequel
My only problem with this game is that the Good Cop/Bad Cop wasn't really used that much outside earning points for upgrades, which was something i really liked on True Crime NY and they could have made something really good on SD considering the whole undercover cop theme.
Awesome game indeed.
The only quality competitor for GTA series imo.
EDIT: Example of well made game but not much spent on marketing. Today's the opposite, check out Cyberpunk2077 or Ubisoft's titles.
For me, Wei Shen was a happy departure from the somewhat tiring hijinks of Nick Kang from the L.A. game; Wei Shen's more my speed for sure. I ended up getting attached to Winston (which surprised me; Peggy was cool too), enjoyed the wisdom of Uncle Po, I considered Broken Nose Jiang smart & prudent, Jackie was fun, Pendrew, Raymond, Ricky...REALLY liked the characters here. Hong Kong was fun for me to explore, I liked both the main & side missions (I liked getting those statues/praying at the Health Shrines especially), music (Martha and The Muffins! XTC! Siouxie and the Banshees! ) and the overall vibe of the game. It was a habit of mine to play "Sleeping Dogs", it helped me pass the time...oh, my job wasn't very boring playing a good cop (thanks to those Big Brother camera side missions:-) who I honestly felt was a great gangster.
I guess one thing I didn't like so much were the outfits that were in Wei Shen's closet but locked until Wei acquired more face experience. Fine, but I would've preferred for that space to be blank, then uncovered after face experience was reached, or for them not to be in the closet at all.
This game is amazing, great story, fighting, parkour, side quests and side activities, even graphics are really good in my opinion, i had so much fun playing this game, it's definitely one of those games that deserve more love and a sequel.
I literally just found this video because i searched up for a review lol. Just beat the game, it's amazing
Get it on pc. Runs great. It was on sale on steam a few weeks ago for under $3
I loved this game so much when I first played it, very refreshing, thank you for the review! I recently got the Definitive Edition for my PS4, might give it a shot someday.
The only issue I had with the game was driving, really made playing it annoying at times.
Also, 19:03 that guy went flying!
YES! I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS MASTER PIECE SINCE YOU ANNOUNCED IT!
I remember trying this out when games with gold had it up for free, thinking I'd play it for a few hours and probably not come back. But I enjoyed playing through and beating it so much that I went and bought it for PC not long after. Truly an astonishing game
I was expecting you would cover the DLC which are absolutely great, Specially the Zodiac Tournament
Reminds me, I've never even touched the DLC yet bruh
Just completed it twenty minutes ago. Absolutely fucking incredible game.
one of the most underrated games of all time!
ColourShed's Channel is VERY much like Sleeping Dogs: both are criminally underrated and seeing CS review this is something I know I wanted to see for a long time.
Quick background: itI always get into the generations late in their cycle. My first console was the NES in 1987 and then I got a Genesis in 1990. I didn't game much until 1996 when I bought the PlayStation 1, and didn't get into the PS2 until GTA San Andreas. I took another break from gaming and didn't get a PS3 until 2012, a 160GB Slim.
After going back through some of the "classics" of the generation (GTA IV, Uncharted 2, etc.) I saw the advert for Sleeping Dogs. I absolutely loved it & had a blast going through the game a few days after it launched.
I just got my PS4 Pro last year and the Definitive Edition was one of the first games I bought for it. I'm still in the middle of my second playthrough & it's been one of those I grab and play a few hours and then let sit a month or two. It's more a comment on how fun the game is and not wanting it to end than being bored with it...
It's been on PSN Network for months off & on during their sales for under $5 for the Definitive. Go buy it and you'll be doing your good karma for the video game Universe.
It cost me five bucks with the two awesome expansions, I was shocked, the game is absolutely fantastic.
19:02 that one guy "My people need me! I must go!"
This is an excellent game. Defiantly deserves more recognition.
You could really feel the tension of playing both sides of the law trying to earn both respect of the police officers and the triad gang members. Best part of the game is shoving aside pedestrians while running and see how different npc react.
I played this game on july 2013 and it was simply amazing, then I played it again on january 2014, a few months before the disc reader of my 360 stopped working, meaning that I couldn't play most of my games anymore
The years went by and I the memory of Sleeping Dogs turned into "oh yeah it was a game that I played and had lots of fun for a while, but I don't think it was that good"
Than on january 2019, exactly 5 years since the last time I played it, it went on sale on PS Plus, only 3 bucks, I bought it and played it immediately, now with the DLCs, and I was very glad to see my memory was wrong, 7 years after being released the game was still just as fun, the story is indeed incredible, Hong Kong still feels alive, and the mechanics are still fluid
What a coincidence I was just replaying this and here’s a review. Awesome man
Mannnn loved this game got it free with games for gold on my 360 years ago! Very very fun might just replay it!
It was a great game, with a fantastic story and an amazing atmosphere. I loved driving through Hong-Kong...It excelled in places where much more "hyped" games failed (ahem, a certain very recently released "triple A game" comes to mind). Too bad there won't be a sequel...
Cyberpunks city architecture reminded me of this game’s city
Finish it twice, this is the most underrated game i've ever played
I love this game, I had always wanted a GTA game set in an Asian city.
Excellent review that sums up what most of us who bought Sleeping Dogs 10 years ago thought: this is the best of all the GTA/open world clones released since GTA III caught fire.
One of the best games from the last generation. The gameplay is far more tight that most GTA clones, and story and characters are superior to GTA V. Square Enix is crazy to not release a sequel, but it's sad that United Front Games is gone.
Man this was one of the first games I bought when I got my PS4. Only $10 for the Definitive edition..........man talk about getting your money's worth.
Soooooo many hours sunk into this game great, great review and have a great day everyone!! 👌🤘
I'd buy a sequel guaranteed, such a great game
I remember at the time it came out I didn't have a ps3 so I could only watch a couple gameplay vids but also didn't like watching gaming clips so never kept up with it, then years later the remastered edition with all the DLC was on sale for ps4 for only 4 dollars. Truly an underrated title.
Next review: Yakuza 0.
Man this is what I was waiting for. Your a stud for reviewing this iconic video game
Going to replay this just cuz this ballsy video
Love this game so much. Played through it a lot! Underrated.
I'll always have a soft spot for this game, I really really liked it, and the open world combat was pretty fun. I've played through it twice, once on 360 and the other on PC, both times I had a blast doing it, even the random side jobs were cool.
Awesome work, maybe Mercenaries 2 World In Flames next?
Dats not how to request it, this is how: mercenaries 1&2 and saboteur
He needs to do Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction first.
@@emanuelespinoza9325 I think Mercs 2 is way more underrated. Not many people played unlike the first Mercs game.
Also…I’m old af, so I can easily fill you in on where you heard “I fought the law and the law won”
They are the lyrics from a song, by the same name (I fought the law) that was covered by “The Clash”
(OG was written and performed AGES age)
Green Day covered it to and it was in some movie.
Was also theme song to an Apple commercial once upon a time.
Why didn't you review the Definitive Edition? I mean no one's gonna play the original version now.
Yeah I didn’t understand that choice at all. As a long post-release reviewer, why would you choose the worst version of a game to do unless you were doing both and using the original as a point of comparison?
@@SahiPie Exactly
Because he's not a very smart or well informed reviewer.
Because the original looks a lot better.
I am. Just bought myself an old Xbox 360 and this was in the bundle of games which came with it.
This game is an absolute gem! My only complaint is for some reason every single highway is under construction and difficult to navigate. That's the one place I should be able to go fast.
God, the nostalgia....
aight I'm off to reinstall it
Worth playing even now in 2021. The Definitive Edition runs well on PC, costs only around 3$ on Steam (when on sale), which is great value for the amount of content available.
I highly recommend using a controller, leaving only the shooting sections for the keyboard & mouse.
What a fantastic game! The DLC is also excellent and I had a dumb smile on my face the whole time 😁
The only thing I wish is that this could have been an official sequel to True Crime: Streets of LA like they had initially wanted. It definitely holds the spirit still and Wei is basically Nick Kang toned down a bit. Underrated gem none the less.
True crime always reminded me of one of those fake gta games that you see on cartoons and sitcoms when they talk about violent video games
Got the platinum for this on PS3 years ago. Fantastic game.
Now we move to the Yakuza series. :D
this game is one of the most slept on game of the decade i think, so sad we wont see a sequel anytime soon. it had such a good story for such an obscure game
