What a shame. I wasn’t looking forward to the game’s story being shortened to fit feature film length, yet Kung Fu fighting in it could be promising, especially with Donnie. I wasn’t surprised though. There’s already nothing to look forward after United Front Games was shut down. Well back to playing the game I guess. Funnily enough it’s the year of snake again, meaning the game and its last DLC are 12 years old. :snake:

What a profound and utter tragedy, so many studios could have been making actual games in the time they spent trying to make the live-service crap Sony forced them to make.

I much rather see him kicking ass in a Sleeping Dogs game sequel anyway. Or a remastered version.

Good point - I’ve been recently contemplating replaying it myself, so this year would be ideal.

What I feel like replaying even more though is True Crime: Streets of L.A. That game deserves more love and paved the way for Sleeping Dogs. (Also, Nick Kang is cooler than Wei Shen, change my mind)

Make sure you get the PS2 version. PC port is decent but needs some meddling to make it compatible with modern PCs and some audio issues aren’t fixable and worst of all, you can’t use a gamepad. The controls layout on PC are a nightmare :grimacing:

Yeah, the controls were always awful. One of those ports that just scream “made for gamepad”… But honestly, I don´t mind that bit. I got used to it back in the day and it was only ever a nuisance in the shooting sections. I need m+kb for the fights anyway :grin: (and having a showdown with North Korea guy while Static-X´s The Only is playing in the background is all I need)

Oh, so the audio issues are actually a thing with the PC port? I always thought that was just how the game was made :joy:

But yeah, if I can´t get it to run at all, I´ll have to get a hold of the PS2 version I gues… :roll_eyes:

Also you left out the best part about the game, that you can actually play as Snoop Dogg :laughing:

So, I actually have a friend who was attached to this project for many years (as a writer). As we would meet for coffee over the years, he’d recount the hollywood woes of how this movie just could not get off the ground. Sad, but not surprised to hear this news.

Anyway, Donnie Yen is over 60 now. At some point, according to rumor, his role in the project changed: he would not have played Wei Shen or whatever young protagonist adaptation, but instead, Uncle Po, or a… more physical variant of him.

Just a random piece of information I thought you all might find interesting.

It’s not news.

But I just lost part of my day reading the Dev Diaries for Civilization VII, where they explain and make the case for their designs.

They’re compelling.

No idea if I will have the time to play the game.
But the separation of games in 150 turns, targeted for 3 hours ages intrigues me on that front.

Last time I played a full civ game was almost a decade ago.
But I can’t deny that it’s one of my favourite mix of good mood and tranquil gameplay I know of.
And I think I might need that currently.

So TikTok is banned, and so is at least 10 other ByteDance-tied apps and services in the US. This includes the mobile game Marvel SNAP!
(IDK if this’ll affect me in Canada, I just found out Steam has it on PC last night and downloaded it! :joy:)
