Xbox 360 PS3

Midway released this great trailer for Stranglehold, looking really really impressive. In fact, I've never been interested in this game, until now. They've really improved the graphics during the last months!

boring?

you can say it doesn't look interesting to you... but boring it's not.

I think it looks rather good indeed

Improved the graphics, I don't see much of an improvement?
Nonetheless, this game looks pretty damn good!
Have you not seen the gameplay trailer where the whole bar/café is smashed into pieces at the end of the trailer, that totally sold me out, simply awesome stuff!

Holy UE3 + havok + john woo... BATMAN.

I loved max payne 2 for the physics and slowmo matrixgasms.. this should pop the cherry like no other.

Games like this have the very realistic opportunity to be far superior to their silverscreen counterparts. Go JOHN WOO and cast!

The lighting right there is ACE.

And the game has been much improved since I saw it last time. The AI still doesn't look too bright though. I count four guys standing in line on one scene. :D

@BooMMooB: Like Raz0rEdge said, just simple shooting... that's boring

I think the game looks great but I think it is going to come down to how good the gameplay is with doing some of those cool things

Simple shooting? Did you guys even watch the trailer? Diving onto trolleys, spinning back and shooting the opposite direction while it's still rolling, jumping onto chandeliers and volleying off onto higher platforms while surprising the enemy behind a pillar.. massive destructive environments... signature john woo slow motion shoot dodges, it doesn't look like you can get any closer to a crazy HK action flick than this game! Can you tell I'm excited? lol

After playing Max Payne this is just simple copy klone with a stupid main character (yeah I know he's a big kung fu hero, but dude, the man is chubby, I don't like chubby hero's... and yes, I didn't like Max Payne 2)

Off course you have to put some new things in the game like hanging from a chandeleer, but does that make the game different/good? I don't think so.

But afterall, this is just my personal opinion.

Chubby? Just because guy has Fat as his last name (or whatver it is) doesn' make him one. You must be an anorectic if you think he's chubby. He's just bigboned :<
