    I used to love apples, especially with a slice of cheese

    until I suddenly developed an allergy to apples/starberries/cherries

    That was a sad day

    Well actually

    They're pretty damn close now that I think about it

    If Sleeping Dogs didn't have missing plot segments I would say yeah easily

    Yeah, I don't think I'd actually be able to choose which one I liked more.

    SR3 has very apparent bits that says the developers ran out of time for story stuff.

    Thankfully the gameplay and mechanics are all there.

    Yeah, I like them both for different reasons, but if I had to choose it would be Sleeping Dogs.

    otherwise this conversation wouldn't be taking place

    Guys Guuuuuys

    I know I posted about this recently but

    I had just picked this game up to play it for a few minutes and then it was a few hours later and I had finished it and it was great.

    edit: though Patrick was wrong in this video, you end up getting like 6 characters

    If you put a gun to my head, I'd probably give the edge to SR3.

    Because I am in love with Laura Bailey's voice acting.

    Man, if Square Enix had have bought Volition the third Sleeping Dogs DLC could have been a team-up with the Boss.

    So me and my roommate are watching Twin Peaks for the first time after the Bombcast telling me to do so.

    We just finished episode three.

    Is that who does the cockney accent for the boss?

    Question, can you set the Sleeping Dogs language to Cantonese so the whole thing is like an actual Hong Kong flick

    I think sleeping dogs and saints row the third are both pretty good games

    But what do your think about white people in video games?

    what?

    Can't Twitch.tv just plain do desktop capture now? If not, I like Splitcam. It's free, and you just select your video source as Desktop and you're done. It turns your desktop into what's basically a webcam so any webcam-capture program can use it.

    This SR3 discussion prompted me to check out the rest of the voice cast.

    I knew Burt Reynolds voiced himself.

    What I didn't know is that Hulk Hogan, Daniel Dae Kim and Sasha Grey all had fairly prominent roles, too.

    Huh.

    I was surprised Grey could talk. Would think those vocal cords would have been rubbed away.

    And Laura Bailey is way awesome

    Actually thats not the best example but still cool lady with a voice.

    I hit the agree button, but I feel like a "groan" button would be more appropriate for that pun.

    SR3 kinda squanders its villains, compared to 2 which did a really good job of building them up.

    Especially during the botched transition from the end of SR3's first act to the second two-thirds of the game. It really does feel like the first act of the game and the second two acts could have been in different games entirely.
    The guy who you've been trying to get revenge on for the whole game, the guy who was being built up as the game's main villain, just dies in a really anticlimactic and kind of obtuse cutscene. Then it jumps directly into the beginning of the second act, where all of a sudden we get another cutscene where we're introduced to the guy who ends up being the real final boss with basically no buildup for the new villain and no closure on the first act's story arc. The only reason to expect the game to keep throwing new enemies at you after Loren is dead is that you, the player, know that there has to be more to the game - I don't think you had a single mission off of the main island even once up to that point in the game.

    Plus it was a little offputting for the head luchador to sound like a white guy who exclusively uses American pro wrestling jargon.
