That's it, the summer break is now over, and though we managed to bring quite a lot of content in the past two months, you should of course expect a lot more in September. Our small team is as motivated as ever, so you should see a good number of videos of highly-anticipated games such as Borderlands 2 or Fifa 13 or PES 2013, but we'll also cover more modest titles, like Of Orcs and Men, whose graphics seem rather impressive to us considering it's not a AAA game, or The testament of Sherlock Holmes, which could appeal to adventure enthusiasts. If I can find some time to translate both articles, we'll also have a full hands-on preview of Harold, Moon Spider's very first game, as well as the interview of Loris Malek, the studio's president. Lots of stuff as I was saying, to thank you for your support and confidence.

Even though Sleeping Dogs is clearly not perfect, it still remains the nice surprise we expected from it before its release. With its strong emphasis on atmosphere and a PC version which looks even better, we figured you'd be willing to see more of the game in 1080p and 60 fps. Enjoy our PC videos, there should be more than enough for you guys to be satisfied.

When Square-Enix first contacted us regarding our copy of Sleeping Dogs, we thought we had a good chance to be able to write a full review. But when the game only arrived at Ghost_Deus' den yesterday, it was clear that he would not be able to make it on time for the game's release in Europe today. As you'll see in his videos, United Front Games' title oozes atmosphere and the Hong Kong setting is a nice change from the usual New York City landscape. Although not everything is perfect, it is great to see that the gameplay mechanics work well, especially combat, which is very satisfying. The console versions may not be as sharp as most AAA titles, even considering the open evironment, but they manage to be very immersive nonetheless. On PC, things look much nicer, as proven by the screenshots our good friend onirik took for us.

Sleeping Dogs is out today in North America, but for Europeans still waiting the end of the week to get it, here are fresh new screens from Gamescom.
