Hot drat Rico's pistol/grenade launcher is great. I can only use it if I wear his outfit and only until I drop it, right? Otherwise I need to head back to my apartment and grab it? I think I'm about to become the worst cop in history.

I believe you are correct, yes. I haven't bought any DLC yet, and SquEnix's really doing a good job of making me question how to spend my first 400 MSP

Is there a way to use the wire when using Rico's outfit or is it purely cosmetic? It says I can hijack vehicles from a distance but apparently I'm dumb and haven't figured that part out yet. And the game dropped my pistol-grenade launcher for a kitchen knife in a mission.

Which would be cool....if the game missions didn't take your gun away at every loving opportunity. Or if you had to drop your rifle to talk to people because there's no way to like, "put away" bigger guns.

Sigh. Here I sit watching you select which car you want to drive. The parking lot attendant is hilarious. Finished the game last night. Now after reading this thread, I am ready to play through again. Seriously, I didn't know you could throw melee weapons. Totally doing that now. loving. Love. This. Game. For those struggling with the armored truck heat (i.e. heat lvl 5), you don't have to just ram your way to freedom. The other good way to lose heat are jumps. Just hit the highway and look out for that construction zone that has two long ditches in the lane, or watch for the missing or under construction guardrails. Hitting those for some jump time can get you out of jail, even if the cops are right on your poo poo. Basically, you catch some air in an armored truck and the cops are all  Also Daptone Radio is loving best. Sagittarius is pretty good too, for the Jam and Souxie tracks.

I'm 14 hours in and this game is really good. The combat took an hour or two to get used to but now it feels great. I hadn't a pork bun in years before last week but I'm glad this game reminded me of them so insistently.

I wish it was easier to rip audio because I would listen to the "Big Horse" commercial at least once a day. Something about a man speaking chinese, a lady speaking chinese, and then both of them saying "BEEG HOHS" with a faint whinnying in the background makes me  to no end.Edit: Oh, also I beat the game. Even though the running and combat wasn't spectacular, the city's aesthetics and the story were certainly worth the 13 and change I spent on it. I'd recommend it because most people aren't as jaded on fighting and freedom of movement like I am. Morter fucked around with this message at 19:57 on Jan 3, 2013 |

Just picked it up. Currently $16.99 on Steam. The preorder DLC's are $2.71 altogether, and all the other DLC's look to be around $1 each.

God drat, being in Germany I got the low-violence version (no violent takedowns, which would be ok) which apparently means no DLC, and thus no high-res textures.

The GMG copy was a limited edition that came with the Police Protection pack and the GSP pack. Does this change which of the DLC I should be looking to pick up? I've bought Nightmare in North Point, and am going to pass on Zodiac, considering it's almost at the price I paid for the base game, but is there anything else I should get to make things generally more fun that isn't covered by what I already have? Have to say, I'm tempted by the Square pack, I loved Deus Ex:HR and Just Cause 2

Zodiac is not really worth more than like $2. It lasts like 45 minutes or so Nightmare is ok, I kind of disliked the whole "You can't kill these super zombies till your face meter fills up, and your face meter takes forever to charge up, only lasts 10 seconds, and when they bite you your face meter is sapped" It was just rather frustrating. I'd say it's about 2 hours worth of goodies, more if you want the medals or something. I'd say that's worth about $4 or so.

I'm fairly early into the game, but one thing that doesn't seem to sit right with me is the driving. I don't know if it's years of being enslaved to GTA IV driving mechanics or what, but, it's not a nice experience to drive in Sleeping Dogs :P. I imagine it is just a case of having played so much GTA IV and being introduced to the physics of a new game, since Saints Row: The Third sort of does the same to me.

For some reason Steam is listing Sleeping Dogs and all DLC at -91% discount. That's 4.49 for Sleeping Dogs and like .67 cents for Nightmare at North Point (which I bought 5 minutes ago at 2.60  ).Go and abuse! Edmond Dantes fucked around with this message at 19:26 on Jan 5, 2013 |

This is the first time I bought something and then it got discounted even more To be fair, I got it from GMG and abused the gently caress out of some discount codes/in store credit so the price for the main game was not that different, but the DLC thing is just insulting.  Also I fully expect it to be an error. /edit: aaaaaaaaand it's fixed.
