    A Fun-Solid shooter that is worth the current price{19 bucks}

    Before I bought Stranglehold, I of course downloaded the demo first on Xbox-live. Suprisingly enough, Stranglehold is pretty solid and fun in it's own little way. Without giving too much away, Stranglehold is a Third-per... Read Full Review

    Kick-ass Fun!!!

    This game should get boring, repetitive and old fast but it doesn't. Its what i've always wanted in an action game: to actually feel like i'm playing the part of the renegade cop in an action movie, and most importan... Read Full Review

    Stranglehold is a good game, faithfully recreating the cinematic flair and presentation that John Woo is so loved for.

    Firstly lets get this out of the way and say this game is only good for the single player. The multiplayer feels a useless add on and totally pointless and frustratingly boring to play. Now that's out of the way St... Read Full Review

    Sweet while it lasts but not worth full price.

    Stranglehold is one of these games that is so unrealistic but great fun at the same time. For example you will blast 10 shotgun rounds into a boss without his health moving more than a cm but at the same time being able ... Read Full Review

    Slick action but not lasting.

    Frankly after playing quite a few 1st and 3rd person shooter games lately, I was reluctant to give Stranglehold a try at first if not for Chow Yun Fatt, I have always been a big fan of him since the early 90s but sad to ... Read Full Review

    Awesome sequel to the amazing Hard Boiled..

    Scenarios falling apart with each bullet fired. Amazing voice acting. Insane history. Although many would complain about the fact of this game being either short or repetitive. It's an awesome sequel to the acclaimed ... Read Full Review

    IS IT WORTH IT ??

    John Woo: Presents Stranglehold, or just "Stranglehold". The game is above average and I would recommend it to most shooter fans, it may not appeal to some people because of the okay story but when I rented this game I c... Read Full Review

    Stranglehold is fun for what it is

    Stranglehold is a game that does not try to be anything other than a third person shooter. Sure, it jazzes up the formula with bullet time and crazy destructible environments, but at its core is still the basic third pe... Read Full Review

    Hong Kong action, translated perfectly onto the 360.

    BULLET TIME: The cliche to end all cliches, right? Well, in Stranglehold, a game based on John Woo's movies - all of which contain near supernatural amounts of equal parts flying lead and ham-fisted acting - Bullet Time ... Read Full Review
