But if you’ve already played a ton of the game across multiple platforms, and have already had the opportunity to sample the story-based DLC. It’s a clear step-up from last-gen, even if it doesn’t wow me at every corner.

If you’ve only played the game on PS3 or Xbox 360, and don’t have access to a PC solid enough to run the game at decent settings, then I can see a reason for checking this out. Considering that Sleeping Dogs was going to be a True Crime (remember that one?) sequel at one point, I think it’s still amazing that the final result turned out to be as good as this.īut again, this Definitive Edition is a tough sell. John Woo flair that I loved so much when I first played the game two years ago. It’s one of the few open-world games to really nail that mix of exploration and combat well, focusing strongly on melee-based attacks to drive home that mix of Shaw Bros. Despite having played a lot of Sleeping Dogs across different platforms already, I found myself quickly addicted to exploring Wei Shen’s world as an undercover cop with a score to settle.

Nothing says serious gangster like running around in full on Monkey King garb.Īlso, and well worth noting, Sleeping Dogs is still a ton of fun to play. It’s easy enough to buy some of the zanier costumes, which provide significant bonuses, making for some entertaining cutscene sequences.

Plus you can get some pretty quick access to significant cash via the 50k money drops scattered about the city, which weren’t originally available in the initial release. Story related DLC releases like the fun Nightmare in North Point, are accessible from the start. One the plus side, the Definitive Edition does come with DLC packed in and ready to use up front.

Car handling is also supposedly improved, but again, I had a real tough time noticing any significant difference. And was even surprised to see some framerate hiccups during cutscenes, along with a couple of full on crashes while playing. I struggled to see the difference between the two versions looking at the same scenes side by side. Features like volumetric fog, increased draw distance, and larger traffic volume sound great, but their actual impact here feels minimal.

I don’t think that the ball has been dropped in any significant way with this port, but I don’t feel like a new bar in quality has been set either.īy and large, this release feels comparable to the original PC release, despite a few graphical tweaks and minor modifications. But really, it should be, considering it’s been a couple of years since the original released. And clearly Sleeping Dogs is a great looking game on Xbox One and PS4, and a huge step up from the previous generation. But I’ve also seen far better previous-gen to current-gen ports with releases like The Last of Us and even Tomb Raider, so my expectations for these releases is somewhat high. Maybe it’s my fault for wanting to compare this to the PC edition, and not just looking at Sleeping Dogs: Definitive Edition as a console upgrade. But for those that played through on PC? Not at all. Is it a clear step-up from the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions? Yes.

While I still feel Sleeping Dogs is an exceptionally good open-world game, even post Grand Theft Auto V, it’s hard to argue that this Definitive Edition releasing next week on Xbox One and PS4 is worth the $60 price tag attached. If we didn’t live in a world where there was a pre-existing version of Sleeping Dogs readily (and cheaply) available on PC, then I suppose this Definitive Edition would be far more tantalizing than it currently is.
