Sleeping Dogs 101

Here's a "trailer" from Sleeping Dogs' developer, together with a partial transcription of the narrative content from the video. By the way, Sleeping Dogs will be released August 14th 2012. So here we go:

Square Enix and United Front Games have joined forces to bring you an open-world experience unlike any other.
Known as the Pearl of the Orient, the Island of Hong Kong is an energetic fusion of East and West, old and new. It's one of the most vibrant cities in the world. It also hides a powerful and dangerous criminal organization : the Triads. Operating in the shadows, they control nearly everything.
You get to play undercover cop Wei Shen . His mission: infiltrate the Sun On Yee and bring them down. Wei's loyalty will be tested to the limits. Torn by the Triads' code of honor and his duty to the badge. He is trapped in a spiral of deceit and paranoia. [...]
Wei Shen is an expert martial artist, which allows you to take on encountered enemies of various skills and sizes. With the most advanced fighting system in any open-world game, push your combat skills to a new level. Use the environment to get the job done with style. [...]
Wei has his pick of vehicles and whatever he wants, he takes. Choose from over 65 different vehicles. No gun? No problem! Just ram your enemies off the road. [...]
To survive in the hard world of cops and Triads, Wei will have to toughen up his skills. Earn money to purchase items, outfits and vehicles. [...]
Use your Triads connections to  help on-going police investigations. [...] Burn rubber in many of the underground street races and perform Triads favors to unlock new buffs and moves. [...]
And then... there are the ladies.



I hope you enjoyed it. I'll be back at some later point with more information on this game.
