Sleeping Dogs looks pretty kick ass

We haven't seen much of Sleeping Dogs - the True Crime: Hong Kong reworking developed by United Front Games - recently, but a new trailer hit today featuring gameplay through one of the missions you'll do as a member of Hong Kong's secret police. As you'll remember, Sleeping Dogs features fight choreography worked on by Georges St Pierre - and you get to see a nice chunk of that here.

Along with standard fist fights, this latest trailer showcases how melee weapons work in the game, vehicular combat and cover system. We also get to see some Just Cause 2 style action hijacking and anything similar to Just Cause 2 gets me all excited.

You can watch the trailer for Sleeping Dogs embedded below or in our videos library - going full screen for HD of course. Sleeping Dogs is set to hit PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 next month on August 16th.
