So sickened! I read the dev company made a statement saying they are no longer working with Activision on this project but hope to work with them again soon. Do ya think there is a chance another publisher could pick this up? Or email to Activision to share my disgust?

Another series headed for the chopping block is True Crime, a move that comes before the next game in the series, True Crime: Hong Kong, had even hit the market. The open-world crime game had been set to be released for the PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 later this year. It had been in development at Canadian studio United Front Games (ModNation Racers).

In the same conference call, Activision Publishing CEO Eric Hirshberg said that the decision to cancel the True Crime was due to the fact Activision feels only top-tier games can be competitive in today's market--and that True Crime wasn't a top-tier game. "To be blunt, it just wasn't going to be good enough," he said.

I read UFG work with Activision so they can't look for another publisher? Sounds strange. It just got a great preview off CVG an all. **** Activision in their f*cking assess!!!

Sent UFG an email with my disgust for Activision. They really sh*t all over them.

As the top comment says, i want a film, not a game after seeing that! My God like, that was better than most action films nowadays!

I didn't see any dogs in that trailer

I did, however see a Liu Kang style bicycle kick though.

New vid with actual gameplay, looks absolutely brilliant and they say the combat has an almost batman asylum/city feel to it. Just looks class.

Mods, can someone change the title to 'Sleeping Dogs (formerly True Crime: HK)' please?

Preview here:

Wasn't it originally slated to be released the same time or close to L.A Noire ? Let's hope it's everything that wasn't !!!!
