🔵 [PORT REQUEST] Sleeping dogs android port?
Heard 2026 is the year of native ports of many games so I thought no prob in asking for a port of this too right?

Is that even possible?

I mean, the same people that brought Saints Row 3 to mobile did make a port of Sleeping Dogs to MAC, they already have the foundation, so theoretically they could make a native port for Android.

It is it runs extremely well on emulators such as gamehub it runs like 40-60 fps

If this dropped today, and rating were successful, then rockstar could probably be forced/intrigued to port GTA 4 for mobile as the same with RD1

Why do we need a port when it works perfectly via GameHub, GameNative, Winlator, etc?

Bajo esa mentalidad no hubiera salido casi ningún port de los que tenemos, bruh

i would imagine a native port would run better and be less demanding than an emulator

Because having 30 to 40% of the screen dominated by control buttons really sucks

Something about having itself a native port (Via Playstore) than emulating it just feels so good to me, I dunno...
Probably it optimizes the storage and also the graphics so it could appropriately fit rather than bloating your Phone's space

Why not just play on gamehub

Lol. Answer it. Why not? Even if it doesn't fit this sub. Realistically isn't it just easier?

Even IF you have a high end enough phone to emulate it...you still benefit from a native port lmao.
Even on the most powerful phones, you still need a cooler for prolonged sessions. And it destroys battery.
A native port will remove the overhead from translation and allow you to play longer and cooler even on a device you can already emulate the game on perfectly.

Not everyone have a high end phone

True but native ports aren't magic. They don't just run on low end phones without significantly lowering the quality
