A hipster said that to me after I put on the hipster jacket. He seemed legitimately impressed.

With all the outfits in the game I pretty much only used the Amazon.com pre-order incentive since it added melee damage. I would have loved to use Mr Black, but it had no bonuses other than looks. I ended up looking very Bruce Lee-like in the final missions with the Amazon bonus.
"You've got GUTS to wear THAT," yelled quickly offscreen on exiting a clothing store, is honestly my favorite meme-esque quote in the game, followed by "My curry fish balls will blow your mind" and the fan favorite "A man who never has pork bun is never a whole man."
They should have DLC where you get to finally confront the mysterious clothing critic.
What about during the drug bust surveillance. "THE SUSPECT...HAS BEEN SIGHTED!!" The guy sounds like he's about to have a stroke.
Not if you focus on the favors first!
I love the Game of Death homage jumpsuit (aka The One That Makes You Look Like The Bride in Kill Bill), but it's awkward taking screens of Wei wearing it since the... erm, bulge stands out more than all the pretty high-res textures. Wearing it also made the scene where
especially awkward!
I think the pants we all wanted to be in were Sandra's, though.
Wait, that doesn't count as clothing.

Just got the Platinum Trophy for this!
I was surprised it was so easy, I was at least expecting to have to grind money to be able to afford all the cars - but ended up finishing with $1.7m to spare.
28h 38m play time.
Wish there was more to do, loved this game
I must be doing it wrong then. I'm *guessing* around 40hrs and just have about 3-4 grinds left like free running attacks, throwing items to kill people. Everything else is done.

The problem with it, from my experience, is that if you take a wrong turn it automatically recalculates a new route instead of giving a moment to ask you "What are you doing? Turn around"
The actual path finding assuming that you went where it told you in the first place is fine.
Took me forever to figure how to get to the back alley with the Central Martial Arts Club. You access it through a door that is grey and appears inconspicuous like a texture on the storefront. I love the martial arts clubs -- they ensure I always have a place to quickly go when I want to kick ass (without replaying missions, I mean).
I thought it was okay until I hit Cheaters Never Prosper Part 3. There's no way in hell to get to the location in the time limit by following the GPS' directions.

Finished it tonight. This is my game of the year so far. Absolutely fantastic in every way
It's possible but difficult. I always use the GPS (unfortunately) and I got there as the clock ticked down to 1 second. Really not a second to spare by using the GPS on that one.

Loving it so far. The only problem I have with it is the lack of a dedicated jump button. I like jumping over things in games and the current system isn't predictable enough that I know what I'm going to do when I'm messing around and trying to do silly things.
I don't think so, I feel like I can never find one when I need one.

There's a favor where you have to defend a car while being swarmed by a billion motorcycles and it's really FUCKING MAKING ME MAD
Can't believe there wasn't an achievement for getting all of the statues, seemed like an important fetch quest.
Shoot for the tires, you eventually get to the point to where you kill them without them getting close to you. I was shooting the guys on the first couple tries & ended up dying every time until I went for the tires instead.

While shooting out tires is efficient, it doesn't net you much XP. What I do is shoot the dudes inside a little, then the tires, then shoot the underside of the cars until they explode.
I just hit level 10 Triad after redoing a couple missions and got that stupid clean drive achievement. My god, I can't count the number of times I fucked it up at 1:40

Holy shit I feel like I'm going to get nuts the next time I hear someone saying the word "Packs"
So many goddamn packs. Packs this. Packs that. Packs these. Packs those.
Packs, packs, packs, packs, packs. Goddamnit I hate packs.

When you exit a high-end fashion store, he'll say "Cutting edge!!" instead.
The mysterious clothing critic is voiced by Edison Chen, same guy who voiced Jackie Ma, I don't have proof but I know that voice, he used to be on Hong Kong television all the time.
Story is keeping me oddly entertained. Every undercover story anywhere has the moment where there is a reveal to the bad guys. I'm wondering how thats gonna unfold, and how the character is gonna take it.
I'm not lovin it like some people here though. The missions are getting a bit repetitive, and every combat scenario plays out the same way for me now. Traveling around the map is a little tiring (why are taxis so damn hard to find). Unlike some of the old gtas, this game is not opening up sweet new sections of the world as I play. I mean, technically it is as I'm going to other places on the map. But besides new area with more lock boxes and shrines, these areas dont feel that unique or special in any way.
But the core mechanics are definitely fun, and even though they repeat often I still enjoy them. But the story is definitely the surprise hook...I actually want to know how this ends!

Don't know. I'd assume some of the costume packs would only be DLC like that Retro Triad thing?
Finished the game.
Absolutely loved the shit out of it!
I decided that I wanted to play another open world game so I popped in GTA4. Wow.
Honestly, after the driving and combat in Sleeping Dogs, GTA feels archaic. So much so, I am now playing through Sleeping Dogs for a second time instead...
Bring on Sleeping Dogs 2 you sons a beeches!

I did all 4 (?) of them and got an achievement so I guess I´m done with it.
They still show up on my map though.

So I guess you're super hyped for LBP Karting, then?
Agreed about the ending, well at least in terms of the last few missions, really enjoyed them.

So I got back from vacation yesterday and was really in the mood to buy a new game. Wal-Mart was the only place open so I went in with the intention of picking up either Sleeping Dogs or Darksiders II. I got to the point where I was totally going to go for Sleeping Dogs until I saw this cover (not my picture):
I'm guessing it's been discussed here already but I couldn't believe how stupid this was. That huge Wal-Mart logo isn't a sticker, it's actually printed on the cover itself. It was literally a deal-breaker for me so good job, Wal-Mart.
Is it just me or is this really stupid on their part?

Who cares about covers? I only look at them once when I take the disc out of the box.
My favorite quote of the mysterious stalker is still " Cutting edge. I like it!"

That is horrid. I think I just threw up in my mouth a little. I can't believe they would ruin the box art to that extent.So I got back from vacation yesterday and was really in the mood to buy a new game.

Finished the game (which was pretty damn good) but I can't seem to find the last 2 favors I need to do. There are no more favor icons anywhere on the map (I've done the 2 on the gambling barges). Are you supposed to do Roland missions or something to unlock more favors?

You are probably missing two of the random hidden ones.
Edit: I guess Tinypic is banned. Weird.
Anyway, search 'sleeping dogs random events map' on google images and use the second image that pops up. Best tip I can give you is look for the ones that aren't orange during the day. They didn't show up for me at night. I think the orange ones are any time.
