If you're a fan of Hong Kong cinema, you simply have to check out Sleeping Dogs.
Inspired by classic crime thrillers like Hardboiled and Infernal Affairs, United Front's open world crime shooter showed just how good GTA could be if it had the guts to switch up it's Anglo-centric setting. It had a fantastic combination of driving, shooting, and punching, with the environmental aspect of hand to hand combat showcasing some particularly gruesome animations too.
It's a shame we're yet to get a sequel, especially since United Front decided to work on an MMO spin-off instead. That got cancelled last year, so here's hoping they've recalculated their efforts and are now hard at work making a true successor to their 2012 hit.
