Not enough time
They wanted to focus on story
It would have takes two disk (lol)
True Crime never had MP

All these can be reasons i guess

youre crazy as !!. i guarantee gta4 mp is still top 10-15 on xbl in terms of people playing 4 years after release. racing, cops n crooks, team mafia work, tdm, free-for-all, free mode to just !! around in all while having a 20+ hour single-player mode as well as coop modes (hangmans noose, b0mb da base). no other game offers that much in one package, period and that was rockstars first attempt at multiplayer.
i do agree though that most games dont need mp though because it risks feeling tacked on like[..]assins creed or dead space.

TRUE CRIME HONG KONG !!!! !! YES
True crime was always a great series and even with the name change its great to see it going well

That !! was boring as !! in GTA IV to me, me and some homies played for few days then got bored as !!.

I think the only online that works with sandbox games is COOP like what was in SR2 and SR3 where u can do the whole campaign together.

Hell, even RDR atleast had a few missions you could do, that GTA IV !! was bare as a moth!!a.

Id way rather have a 100% dope campaign then a half[..]ed campaign that sucks with some tacky online tossed on.

Playing with your friends, talking !!, having the time of your life videogame wise >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> anything else.

Im not paying 60 dollars for a game on Tuesday only to beat it by Friday or Saturday night, and never touch it again [pic]

They could've simply opened the city up, dropped some pick ups around, made it so we tally score for k!lling each other and called it [rip] match.

Its activision, and they already got DLC at launch for it. Imagine how much you bout to pay for that lol

PC Version in a much higher res with higher HD Textures and Directx11 flowing ever so beautifully? All for free?

No way thats a loss my man

If its coop like Saints Row 3 or Saints Row 2 then yeah thats dope playing with friends.
But that !! in GTA IV was boring as !!, I played it with friends for a few days and that shti got boring as hell to me man.

RDR had aight onlien cuz you could do some missions with friends, but that !! in GTA IV got boring hella fast for me man. The first few days I was like "YO THIS IS DOPE!!!!" then that !! wore off super fast, was just pointless really.

If it aint coop campaign then that !! sucks imo man, I mean I love coop games where you can get on with ya homeboys and rock it, but if its just pointless !! then it aint really fun, everyone bored n !! lol. Dayz we playing with now with my boys, 21 people at the same time against 39 others that !! dope as !!. Same with SR3 even though its just 2 people.

And no its NOT Activision that did Sleeping Dogs, Its Square Enix that is putting it out.

this>>>>>>>>>>>FPS MPs

finally a game with a theme and story not a rushed game cause it caterd to some random [rip] match

08-09-2012, 12:27 AM

Damn, I wasn't really checking for the game before, but I might now.

Oh real? After the unfinished, glitch-filled, utter disaster that was their last True Crime game, True Crime: New York City, you would think they'd want to distance themselves from that series, but I guess not.

Sleeping Dogs review: 9/10 in OXM - 'A better game than we were expecting'
Second glowing review arrives for Square Enix brawler

By Andy Robinson for CVG UK

OXM UK is the second publication to put out their Sleeping Dogs review, and it's another glowing verdict for the Square Enix crime-em-up.

In its latest issue the mag awards the open-world effort a 9/10, calling it "a Wei better game than we were expecting."

The score follows another 9/10 from OPM UK's own Sleeping Dogs review, which boldly describes the title as "2012's most brilliantly brutal surprise".

OXM calls Sleeping Dogs "A gripping vision of Hong Kong which sports majestic driving, a sharp, well-acted storyline and varied missions," only reserving criticism for the fairly short (by genre standards at least) 14-hour main story.

Originally developed for Activision under the name True Crime: Hong Kong, Sleeping Dogs - as it became known - was later dropped by the Call of Duty publisher and then snapped up by Square Enix last summer.

Another 9/10, [pic][pic][pic]

I knew there was another game with similar title. It was confusing the hell out of me.

Free roaming is tight plenty of !! to do. Guns are actually pretty fun and even when I get one I usually throw it out the melee system is >>>>>
