Huh? Stranglehold is actually a pretty damn good game.

The Xbox 360 version is still slated for this week on Gamestop, so we'll have to wait and see, I guess.

Not really... when I play R6V I work hard to kill the majority of terrorists, or when I play Halo I feel good when I am victorius on legendary. Stranglehold seems to be missing that "good" feel. Its likeplaying a hack n slash game, just with guns.

Well we are, so go play some more Bioshock or something and let us discuss the delay. The game is fun, pure and simple. It doesn't try to load existentialist views into your head every time you turn the corner. It's just an arcady shooter, and I like it for what it is. I've played the demo dozens of times between me and my friends. I was looking forward to picking it up this week, not a huge delay though, I can wait.

did anybody else (on the demo) encounter the glitch where you dove sideways and went straight through the wall? i think it was the stair case before the 1st ramp up to the area with golden gun. its funny because your in this tiny box (walls are for some reason, invisible). however you can get out by running up the wall and jumping up.

I just played the Demo and the game is crazy. Its very fun and addictive. I think it will have a great story aswell. It reminds me a bit of Rise of Honor with Jet Lee.

You can say that about any game, especially Sport games.

im getting this game for sure, probably the collector's edition. im a big chow yun fat fan and an even bigger john woo fan. i played the demo at least a dozen times maybe more. for those that say the game is repetitive, you can say that about any game. halo is more fun on legendary??? go play stranglehold on hard-boiled and turn off assist aim. max payne was fun but the story was so depressing that i was getting a little tired of the story. so for all the people that want to wanted to buy this game, yeah it sucks cuz of this delay but im sure it is for a good reason. im happy cuz i can get this and MoH airborne at the same time.

My problem with the delay is the fact this it will release at the same time as MOH: AIRBORNE...I was going to get both games seeing how they would be released a week apart but now that they are going to be released only a day or so apart I might only pick up one of these games...

in r6v all you do is duck, tell the computer controlled idiots to flank or supress fire and shoot over and over again.

in halo all you do is run and gun aliens.

just because you get a certain "feeling" from these games doesn't mean you're not doing the same thing over and over again... and because a game doens't give you this feeling doens't make it a POS.

it's all perception

... WTF? All I am saying is that I was once interested in this product and now I am not because the developers seem to have dropped the ball. This game has been in talk since before the 360 was released and I wanna know how a game like Stranglehold could fail so misserably, But CoD4 which has been in developement for a shorter amount of time can come out on top.

How can anyone that enjoys the game tell you that? It's your opinion, it's not a fact that has a solid undisputable answer. I guess the game just developed into something that is not your taste, move on.

I hope it's only delayed bya week I really liked the demo. True the game is pretty dull on normal and hard, but on hardboiled it actually makes you think how to best use your special powers and fine a good mix between run and gun and pop and shoot. I also liked how they have little things hidden through out the levels like those golden pistols and SMG'S.
