Sleeping Dogs Message Board  

i seen this on google so does that mean this game is True crime 3 ?

That's what I heard, but the name changed and they made a lot of other changes.

Unofficially, no. Techincally yes. It was canceled by activision but picked up by square enix.

No, it's more of a spiritual successor, no direct plot connection (at least so far as I can tell so far). It just is similar to it in some ways.

k thanks for clarifaction techlys good to me:P if this game goes good they be a true crime 4 maybie?

Tc1 and tc2 had no direct plot ether

From Wikipedia:


The game was originally in development as Black Lotus, but was announced in 2009 as True Crime: Hong Kong, the third installment and a reboot of the True Crime series. As a result of the game’s high development budget and delays, it was canceled by Activision in 2011. Six months later, it was announced that Square Enix had picked up the publishing rights to the game, but the game was reannounced as Sleeping Dogs in 2012 as Square Enix did not purchase the True Crime name right
