Sleeping Dogs

It's like if you took the sushi out of the Yakuza games.

And you know the one, what was it, Sleeping Dogs or whatever? There's that whole, like, man who don't eat pork bun is no real man.

And that line just cracks me up every time.

And it is a bit of a cliche as well.

But again, you don't really get out of the car and shit like that.

Well, like... gun from like the original red dead redemption you ever play that yeah red dead could get in there but i mean rock star right yeah that tokyo junk oh yeah um sleeping dogs sleeping dogs something what's something dogs yeah i think it's sleeping dog or eating dog so watching chill watch dog Watchdogs? Watchdogs, yeah.

I don't know.

Whatever it was, Zad Johnson there.

What are some of the best GTA games on Switch, Switch 2 and what are some you like, you might like to see ported to Nintendo at some point?" So Saint- Saints Row 3 and 4 are available on Switch stuff, so that's fun.

Is Sleeping Dogs available on Switch?

Yeah.

Ooh, that's a good question.

Yeah

...

Sleeping Dogs is an all right video game.

I like it quite a bit.

... with GTA taking so long, there should be something in the middle.

A Crackdown, a Saints Row, True Crimes, Sleeping Dogs, Watch Dogs.

There should be something in here that can kind of eat at a little bit of that market when we're 13 years waiting.

There should be something in the middle going, "Hey, we're very similar to this with our own unique take."

We don't feel like we have one that's, like, guaranteed anymore, like Saints Row was.

Right.

I think Sleeping Dogs is a perfect example of, like, there's one right there for you that could've been killer.

Oh, yeah.

Let's do these in order.

So the dream resurrection of an IP by a different studio, my gut, my heart, my soul goes to Sleeping Dogs.

I would do, because I used to love the true crime games.

Like we had true crime streets of LA, streets of New York, and then it was going to be streets of Hong Kong and it became Sleeping Dogs.

And so that team, what the hell were they called? United Front Games, I think.

They went under because stupidly their publisher was Square Enix.

So they did Sleeping Dogs, which is an immaculate open world, you know, crime action game.

I love that game so, so much.

And so I was trying to before this, but I ran out of time.

there is no departed video game it's messed up i did see that there's a game called sleeping dogs from like 2012 that i guess does a lot of it cribs a lot from infernal affairs which is kind of interesting but i've never played it so

people like it

um rob do you have any letterboxd for us don't i

I think...

My favourite video game of all time is Sleeping Dogs.

For me, no video game comes close to that.

It's sort of like a GTA type of game, but set in Hong Kong.

You have guns, but when you pick it up and you use all your ammo, you lose the gun.

It's all focused on... kung fu sort of style combat and you learn new moves and stuff like that so i think that's a way they could do it where they really focus on the styles of fighting that he's using rather than just doing certain moves you know random moves put together um so if you really focus on like a certain style certain forms of combat I think that could be a way to make it really engaging.

In Sleeping Dogs, you have to go to the dojo to learn new moves, and the moves all make sense for the kung fu style.

So I think that's something that could make it more engaging.

Uh, let's see.

Another one is Sleeping Dogs.

Miss Ai, you love this game.

Ooh.

Uh, Sleeping Dogs, the definitive edition for the PlayStation 4.

Yes.

I played this long ago on the PlayStation 3.
