All I know about the story so far is that he's an American.. so maybe he had nothing to do with Hong Kong before the story takes place. Guess we'll have to wait and see! My guess is, they are just being ignorant

It has to tie in with the original pitch for the True Crime HK game, so the name couldn't be changed. It was a bit tricky when the handover from Activision to SquareEnix occurred...believe me.

I got the Xbox version for this game and I'm so hooked to it. I feel like a highschool kid again The conversations in the background are pretty funny but if you don't know cantonese, then a huge chunk of fun factor is taken away.

I'd play these kind of games on a console over a PC, only real advantage the PC has is HD textures but KB/M on this game is horrible (but you can plug in an xbox controller and remedy that) ... oh and 3D can be enabled on PC if you have the right equipment for it ...

Try Best Buy for trade in, they usually give you better value anyways. Plenty of copies at my nearby store.

I tried to find a cock fighting ring after playing the game for maybe an hour. I was in Aberdeen since I was just dicking around, and went to that one. HKD$20,000 bets = too baller at my game progress !

Good game so far, controls can be a bit clunky at times, but it's pretty fun.
