"Sleeping Dogs developer United Front Games has praised Square Enix for its input into making the game &amp;quot;fantastic&amp;quot;. The open-world game, initially titled True Crime: Hong Kong, was cancelled by Activision in early 2011 before the publishing rights were acquired by Square Enix.  &amp;quot;Partnering with Square has been fantastic,&amp;quot; United Front Games producer Dan Sochan told Digital Spy. &amp;quot;They really know the process of making open-world games. &amp;quot;They&amp;#039;ve worked on Just Cause and they understand what it takes to make a fluid and intuitive combat system as shown by their work with Rocksteady on Batman: Arkham Asylum. It has been a great partnership for us, and they&amp;#039;ve really allowed us to have the time we needed to take the game from great to fantastic.&amp;quot; Sochan also said that the additional time in development has allowed them to polish Sleeping Dogs and add new features including an upgrade system. &amp;quot;Going from [True Crime] to Sleeping Dogs, the content itself has not changed,&amp;quot; he added. &amp;quot;The music, the characters, the story - none of that&amp;#039;s changed.&amp;quot; &amp;gt; Sleeping Dogs interview: United Front Games on Hong Kong inspiration &amp;gt; Sleeping Dogs preview: Take down triads and cops with martial arts Watch a trailer for Sleeping Dogs below:  Screenshots - view the latest Sleeping Dogs images below:  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
