Although no doubt Stranglehold will be a good game if you look at it with a monetary mind, Bioshock seems as if it will keep a $60 price tag for quite sometime, just look at Oblivion, and Bioshock has gotten better reviews than it. Like I said I dont doubt Stranglehold's ability to be a good game, but it seems like if you wait a while that come Holiday season I bet it will be already down to around $40, it just seems like one of those games, and I should know having been ripped off with prices dropping shortly after many of my purchases were made.

So if you didnt conclude from all that.. I am going to get Bioshock and eventually get Stranglehold when it lowers in price

How can you say that off of a 5 minute demo? Doesn't make sense.

Hard Boiled wont be in HD, sorry to burst your bubble. I thought Stranglehold was extremely mediocre, I seriously would rather be playing Punisher on ps2. Im lucky enough to already have Bioshock, IMO it lives up to the hype. http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/xbox360/bioshock

I guess im wrong, Stranglehold is still pretty mediocre though, especially in comparison to Bioshock.

I won't disagree that bioshock is the better game, but being a huge Woo fan I can't say no to strangehold...good mindless fun

This muct be the "Games whose Reputations will soon be "Fable'd" by inexperienced kids with unrealistic expectations" thread.

Its great to watch the amount of hype around BioShock. Half of you never even heard of System Shock for one thing. But its funny. Because I just know theres going to be alot of whiners once its released. But theyre doing it to themselves.

I got an advance copy of Bioshock on friday, its amazing.
The graphics are superb, the story is a little confusing but the gameplay is great.
I would recommend Bioshock to anybody who likes FPS or action games

Stranglehold was cool, but the gameplay wasn't nearly as awesome and new as it was being made out to be. It felt like I was playing max payne basically. Bioshock is simply amazing and I am def. getting that. Stranglehold may be a rental.
