Daynel's Game Recommendations

[Archduke Daynel, PhD]

So I just got a new game (well, several really) through the recent Humble Square Enix Bundle. It's called Sleeping Dogs. I wanted to make a topic here about it to tell you how great it is, but I thought a whole topic for one game I don't think anyone else here plays might be a bit much. So why not, I'll start doing game recommendations and reviews and stuff I guess.

Sleeping Dogs is essentially GTA but with Hong Kong instead of America and kung fu instead of guns. And instead of being a criminal you're an undercover cop pretending to be a criminal. It also has karaoke and cockfights.
The combat is very nice, you punch and kick mofos in the face and crotch and everywhere else, really. You can also use the environment to your advantage in fights, for example by jamming someone's head into an air conditioning fan. The graphics are nice, and the general environment is very beautiful, IMO, especially during and after rain. Dat neon reflecting in the wet asfalt..
If you want to see the gameplay, I recommend you check out Totalbiscuit's video of it. Or I might make a video, who knows.
TL;DR Chinese GTA, and at the relatively low price of $29.99 USD (I think), I really recommend it, especially if it's on sale.

I'm quite enjoying Dragon Age: Inquisition. Played about 50 hours so far and I'm not certain I'm half done yet. The control scheme was obviously designed for a controller, but other than that it's basically Skyrim but with most of the mechanics from Mass Effect, which is pretty great.
