Sleeping Dogs is Gratuitously Violent, Takes on Hong Kong Cinema

Get a taste of delicious fist-meets-face violence in this new combat-oriented trailer of Sleeping Dogs, which was just released by Square Enix. It's a trailer that doesn't pull any punches.

The upcoming game is said to offer martial arts combat inspired by Hong Kong cinema and puts you in the role of a guy who could give Jackie Chan a run for his money with all his sweet moves.

Throughout the game, you'll be able to upgrade your combat by learning new moves and using them against your opponents. More than just throwing your weight around, you'll learn how to grapple, counter, and even use weapons and the environment to your advantage.

This is one movie Jackie Chan wouldn't want to star in due to its gratuitous violence—but I'll be more than happy to play it.
