Recently I went on a trip to the Ukraine where i found this video game that looks incredibly like the film Hot Fuzz.
Update - Destructiod just ran this on their blog. A few of they're readers speak a little Russian:

The title transcribed into Roman characters is "Narkopolizia," meaning (you guessed it) Narcotics Police.

Watching the video, here's what I can translate:
You have three police officers, one is a dog handler, one is a criminologist and the third is a is a member of the russian special forces
They are ordered to seize a ship for the federal border service.
Also since some of you are asking, this is why i was in the Ukraine:
I was actually visiting with a German charity (i live in there as I am a civilian working for the British Army in Germany).
Quite a few of the Ukrainians we met spoke excellent German, which made my life allot easier. They have historically had good ties with Germany, even after the second world war. The trip I had been on was part of a regular program and they charity visits the Ukraine about 3 times a year.
Some other interesting things that happened on the trip:
Just across the border someone came up to me with a hand full of money, which i could only guess meant he wanted to get me to transport drugs across the checkpoint. Having just spent nearly 3 hours getting across (we had to bribe the customs guys with beer) i decided it wasn't worth going back.
Later another man came to me with a beard, a hoodie and a knife. It was only until he opened a suitcase full of knifes that i realized he was actually a knife salesman.
The Ukrainians can party like anything, we went to a local restaurant that was run by a close friend of the organizer of the trip and found the owner was too drunk to charge us. They drink vodka like the British drink tea, and wherever i went i was given a shot by someone who wanted me to toast them. I lost count at 15.
The next day we went back to the same bar for breakfast, and the mere sight of vodka meant that i nearly puked. I spent most of the time outside until we went into town and found the game.
The later we visited a local old folks home, run by some very nice nuns. We were meant to drop of some medical equipment for them but alas in the end all i did was vomit right in front of them.
They were very nice about it, they gave me a bed to rest in, some anti headache tablets and a place to clean my puke covered clothes. I felt incredibly embarrassed and couldn't stop apologizing but they were just happy they could help.
They changed my perception of Nuns, I will never say a bad thing about them again!
I also had the chance to visit the local orphanage. The kids were the cutest you will ever meet and it was sad to see that they have to sleep 4 to a room and only until recently go to the toilet outside in a whole in the ground.
I might be going again in April, if it pans out i will give the local orphanage my old PS2 and Guitar Hero. The kids were amazed at my camera as they had never had the chance to see one before. Being able to rock out to Guitar Hero will probably be they're Christmas and birthday present all in one!
UPDATE TWO:
According to a rather pleasant young woman over at Peggster both Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright have seen the video and thought it rather odd!
wonder if Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright know about them using copyrighted Hot Fuzz images to sell a game that has nothing to do with Hot Fuzz?

@joe89nufc Actually they have seen it. This video ended up on a Simon Pegg fan site, the owner of which actually keeps in contact with both of them. Ill try and post their replies

Yes! I only have room in my tiny little mind for one language... but at least that makes me better than the average Jeremy Kyle guest ;)
