True Crime: Hong Kong

A Brief Taste Of True Crime: Hong Kong
One of Activision's big fall games is a revival of its open-world True Crime series, the closest thing the publisher has to a Grand Theft Auto.

At least one part of the game that I saw at E3 had me thinking more Assassin's Creed. And I'm not talking about the part on motorcycles.

True Crime: Hong Kong revives the Activision series via development studio United Front Games. They've got a lead character, undercover cop Wei Shen, running through virtual Hong Kong in an adventure that involves his efforts to embed himself in the Triad organized crime underworld. While undercover, he must commit acts of (grabbing press sheet so I can quote it) "theft, extortion, drug running, smuggling guns, shaking down informants, kidnapping, human trafficking and more."

Crime is guaranteed. But is any of it true? I'm guessing no.

I was thinking of getting this game because it seemed simialr to gta. But I guess I might still get it if it's similar to Assassin's Creed.

Re: True Crime: Hong Kong

Haven't seen much from it apart from a video and now this, but I'm looking forward to it I loved the first, never played the second. But it's looking to be a decent revival I hope it doesn't flop.
