Got the game for free through steamgifts playing appreciated group.

It's pretty much a GTA clone in a hong kong setting, with some more attention to driving and brawl fighting. The undercover cop twist is a nice variant, you get to play both sides. Storyline seems interesting so far, curious to see how it evolves.

Update 25+ hours in, now that i'm done with the main storyline
+ good storyline
+ zodiac island side mission
+ good menus look and feel
+ brawl system once you get used to it
+ still looks, sounds and plays good despite it's years since original release
+ squarepusher while racing
+ ninjatune radio
+ porkbun salesman
- some of the characters relationships seems to jump inexplicably between scenes, which feels odd
- aiming with controller can get quite tricky, had to swap between mouse and controller on some shooting missions to aim properly
- missing a few more side missions, things feel empty once you're done with the main storyline
- triad level 10 is much harder to reach compared to face level 10 and cop level 10, should have been balanced better
- glitches in dead character looking like a ragdoll
- glitches in not landing properly between 2 floating structures
- 12 bikes race always trample the starting girl
- competitors times are made up on races, why show them at all?
- car valet always comes with your crappiest bike
- bugged map view (especially on zodiac island)
