Stranglehold (Xbox 360) Gameplay

Stranglehold is Max Payne taken to the next logical conclusion, and is a stylistic shooter with some really fun bullet time mechanics, and a lot of really cool environmental destruction. The full title is John Woo Presents: Stranglehold, and it stars Chow Yun-fat as Inspector Tequila.Show more

I think I only ever got about half way through this game back in the day, but I do remember enjoying my time with it. It's interesting to see a John Woo titled game that is based off of Max Payne which was based off of John Woo movies.

Fun shooter, with mechanics that are as stylistic as they are fun to pull off. It might delve down into the same thing over and over again, but that's video games folks, and it never gets old pulling off a bullet-time slide over a table while feeding a baddie a face full of lead.

I do remember playing this game online once or twice, not only did this game offer a strong single player campaign, but it also had some fun online play. Remember when developers actually cared about making a good offline game, and yet, still managed to also make a good online experience with it?
