A blood-soaked love letter to 1990s Hong Kong action cinema, GYNHO this week takes a look at John Woo's Stranglehold, and goes through the reasons why the game would ultimately fail to be a major draw.
GF365: "Here are our picks for the ten most underrated third-person shooters that you might not have played before or even known about."
Actually great list TBH I agree with all 10
I hope one day we get some remakes for the following
The saboteur(with a proper remake and quality of life features this game could be great)
Scarface world is yours
Binary domain ( such a great game with great story)
GUN(this needs a remake)
Space marine 40k(such fun time)
Would also like to suggest adding the mercenary series even the 2nd game which is disliked by many is a fun time
I recently finished Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine and found it to be very enjoyable.
The game respected the lore and the gameplay was quite decent.
The color palette was a bit underwhelming (backdrops and setting) and recycled but I think that it deserved better.
Here's hoping for an amazing sequel
GF365: "These are the best games based on movies. Every entry on this list will be a great video game adaptation of popular movies."
Alien isolation...ftw,it is definitely one of my top games,I played it again a few months ago ✌️
Stranglehold, a thrilling action game co-created by the famous Chinese director John Woo, returns to digital distribution on PC today. After years of being lost and unavailable, the game comes back to life thanks to the efforts of GOG.COM and the title’s publisher.
True that...Good thing that I still got the whole "Max Payne" series in my game collection.
Hmm, the thought of playing this through HDMI on my 4K TV through my rig sounds worth another playthrough of this gem. Especially at $10.
I don't have a 4K tv or monitor I'm afraid :S But I'm going to pick up the game anyways ;)
It was a fun game
This was one of my first 360 games. I had fun.
I have this game on the PS3 collector's edition including the movie. Big fan of John Woo's gun fu and Chow Yun Fat. Too bad the PS3 version didn't have trophy support. Was hoping for a sequel, but they cancelled it and Midway went defunct.
I heard of this game and played the hell out of it. Should use a better headline.
I remember downloading the demo thinking it would suck but man oh man was i wrong! Bought the game about a week later (had trouble finding it in stores).
