John Woo's Stranglehold

[Shannon]

Was just messing with the demo actually looks like a pretty cool game.

 

For some reason the trailers didn't look so hot.

This one hasn't really floated my boat either based on screenies but I've read some hands on reviews that say the game is kick ass. It's not really my favorite genre so I still think i'll wait and get it used.

Most likely the game is probably a bit shallow on the gaming side. But boy is it nice and shiny on the outside. But then I always thought crackdown was a bit on the shallow side. I'd have to wait to see what people are saying about it.

 

But based on the demo I'd guess it would at least make a great rental. The whole game is built around the concept of action movies. Think "Kung Fu Chaos" and you might have an idea. Practically everything in the environment is breakable and you're character can use props to pull cool moves, etc. Think "James Bond moments" that some of the bond games had. Then there is all the slow mo bullet time junk, and it even has a camera mode that follows the bullet to it's target.
