Well, the game is being developed by some studio in Vancouver I never heard of before. Vancouver, isn't that the place full of Chinks Canadian Asians?

So, I received the review PC copy for the game yesterday. I only had 30 minutes to play last night, but that 30 minutes wasn't pleasent at all. Don't get me wrong. The games looks OK, the gameplay seems OK (as far as I see from 30 mins), but they screwed up the coding for the controllers. I have a gamepad, a joystick and a flight rudder hooked up to my PC, because I play a lot of different types of game. But because the different controllers, the ingame controls were fucked up. I wanted to play the game with a gamepad (fuck you, I know that K
is great, but third person games with melee combat and driving are better with gamepads), so I had to plug out the joystick and the rudder. But that fucking game still didn't work with my gamepad, because it only works with the Xbox controller, while I have a Logitech. Fuck you Microsoft for demanding the exclusive support of that controller. And fuck the devs for doing this.
And since the game is not out officially, I can't go to the forums asking others how to fix this with a mod or something.

Review? And a non-RPG? I dunno Matt, I dunno. I think you're losing your focus.

I'm not Ma....ah forget it. And I write for a prestigious hungarian PC site. 
I'm just kidding, we are not prestigious, even though we are well noted in our country. I try to bring some incline, but we are as mainstream as it gets.

Well I can throw cursewords in a high pitched voice!
Apart from the shitty controls, how is the game itself?

Rockstar just needs to port Red Dead Redemption to save us from the shitty GTA clones.

Retard Derp Rederption wasn't that good.
The graphics look good. Not a Crysis killer of course, but as far as multiplatform games go, it looks ok. The visuals have that Hong Kong feel. The main weak pont is the character modells, which are worse than say...Red Dead Redemption. They are on the level of GTA4. The melee combat is fun as hell, grappling and putting down bad guys looks awesome. The good animations help a lot in this one. The combat system is not that complex. Basicly it is Batman Arkham C. You have a basic attack. You smash it, you make light attacks. At the end of a combo, you can hold it, to finish it with a strong attack.You can grab people with another key, and hit them, or ram them into the wall or use some stuff in the enviroment on them. I can't tell much more, since I'm still at the beginning of the game, and haven't seen many missions. I'm doing some extortion right now for the
Please keep us posted about your progress J_C. Hope the game turns out to be shit, so that I can cross it out from my list.
The vehicle handing is surprisingly good with K. GTA4 was the biggest pile of shit in this regard, yet they were so proud of their engine. Sleeping Dogs blows it out of the water. The melee keyboard control is starting to grow on me. But it could be a bit more responsive. Oh, and you can't jump in the game. I mean you can jump over a fence and stuff when the icon lights up, but you can't jump any time. During fights, it would be handy to jump. But I can't do that. The voice acting is good, and there is a lot of chinese (cantonise to be exact) talk (with subtitle), which adds to the atmosphere.
