20 Most Jaw-Dropping Games of 2012
20. Sleeping Dogs
Thank the gods Square Enix picked up Sleeping Dogs after Activision Blizzard dropped it midway through the games development. Otherwise, we would have been deprived of a superb and tense odyssey through Hong Kongs underworld. Boasting an impressive fighting system reminiscent of the Arkham games, an enjoyable RPG lite system, and a gripping story about an undercover cop, Sleeping Dogs is a thrill ride that shouldnt be missed anyone who loves a good action/adventure title.

This is the one game where you can kill sometime doing karaoke and then go for a ride in your beat-up hunk of junk, see a shiny car you want and hijack said car by leaping out of your car, latching onto the desired vehicle, and then forcibly removing the owner from the drivers seat. Sure, observed up close, Sleeping Dogs is a hodgepodge of all sandbox games that came before it, but that doesnt stop it from being a damn fun hodgepodge.
