The first was not complete shit.

It had a great atmosphere and world building but was ruined by crap narrative and boring gameplay. Also, Chicago at modern times is less interesting than other cities.

If they manage to solve the 1 issues, this could have potential. San Francisco is really cool

I want a game set in Hollywood, to be able to steal nude photos and blackmail vips.
I mean, this is what an hacker does, right? :M

Sleeping Dogs was published by Squeenix and developed by *searching on Wikipedia* United Front Games.

Sleeping Dogs had shitty physics, worst driving ever and average graphics. It was only saved by the really good setting and the entertaining beat em up combats.

If Sleeping Dogs and Watch Dogs would've been the same games but with inverted developers, people would say "Why not making Watch Dogs 2, Sleeping Dogs was shit"


However, this evening (for EU) they will share lot of details, probably some gameplay, will see

Looking at that cover, I just get the feel that Ubisoft are those old guys trying to be all young and hip, appealing to the kids. A similar feeling I got from Watch Dogs (never played it though, just watched some gameplay).

Guess it worked though since there's a sequel now.

Some gameplay




Hacking seems cool and improved
San Francisco more big, colourful and varied than Chicago
Driving physic seems crap as usual
Graphics are decent but not dat impressive (still worse than Gta 5 pc)
Plot is almost unkwown
I had the feeling they're trying to copy Gta 5, but maybe it's cause of the sunny california setting

However, i'm interested in it
