Hard Boiled is on the CE disc. It's the movie that the game is based off of. After watching the movie, then playing the game, you really appreciate how exact the recreation of the action is.

I bought the CE a few months ago, and it's a good buy...for the right price.

The game is actually really fun.

The game is just awesome and really fun to play. I beat the game on Normal and I did it pretty quickly so I was disappointed with the length. I started playing on the Hard Boiled difficulty and it took much longer because it was pretty hard. I also bought the CE and watched the movie before...

I just bought the CE for $20 at Best Buy yesterday and I'm loving it. It's a really underrated game in my opinion. The only part I don't really like is the checkpoint system.

It was a pretty fun game. Beat it in a day and didn't feel the need to replay it really. Good mindless fun though.

Was the audio out of sync the entire length of Hardboiled for anyone else? It was pretty annoying.

Have you tried watching it with the latest 2.42 firmware and the latest 1.20 game patch?

[QUOTE="plagueseason"]Have you tried watching it with the latest 2.42 firmware and the latest 1.20 game patch?emitsu97

I had 2.41 and whatever the latest game version was at that time.

I've heard the 2.42 update can cause static audio issues and blu-ray problems, but I've only had a problem with Stranglehold. Sometimes the audio in the game will get really distorted sounding like my speakers are blown or something, the game has frozen a couple times, and like I previously stated, Hardboiled's audio is out of sync for almost the entire film. I tried deleting the game data and re-downloading the patch and Hardboiled's audio was still out of sync, and I haven't played enough of the game again yet to see if the other issues happen again.

I haven't had these problems with any of my other games, aside from my first playthrough of Uncharted awhile back, it froze at the part when you have to run and gun behind you at the Spaniards, which apparently happened to some other people as well, so I assume it was the game. Any other input from anyone that has watched Hardboiled on the Stranglehold CE blu-ray would be appreciated.

This game goes in the category with Assasins Creed and Heavenly Sword. The PERFECT rentals,, or purchases when theyre $20 or less. Great fun, short game, absolutely zero replay value
