I picked up Sleeping Dogs during the summer sale, but only got to play it recently.

It is an amazing game, the setting of Hong Kong really draws you in. From the music, the visuals, the chinese mixed into the language, I was very impressed.

Story:
Good, some unexpected plot twists and you get really drawn into your character and the predicament he's in.

Music:
Excellent, the usual radio channels with their own flavor. Personally I really liked Softly and HK club, their chinese tracks were really unique to me (due to not hearing chinese songs before).

Graphics:
Excellent, you can see SE really gave it an upgrade compared to the consoles, ran smooth on my setup.

Controls:
I'd recommend a gamepad, it makes the game alot more pleasurable (except for the karaoke :P).
Though with a keyboard it's still playable, which I did for the first half.

Overall:
Worth a pickup, best 'gta like' game outside of GTA itself.

PS. If you can get the DLC's as a cheap bundle, do so, but do take note that you might want to disable a few which are balance breaking.
