Looks interesting. I'll have to keep my eyes on it. I only played True Crime Streets of LA, and I used to love that game despite the glitches and bad frame rate. Wish it was reverse compatible on the 360. Where do they get the name Sleeping Dogs from though?

One of the devs saw their dogs sleeping, was in charge of coming up with a new name, and BAM the new name was "Sleeping Dogs" simple as that, lol.
