Not a bad game, but not a good one either
Gameplay
The gameplay in Stranglehold is repitative and after about halfway through the game you dont get any more new stuff except three new weapons, and a bunch of bosses. You run around mainly blasting endless chinese dudes while using "tequila time" or something and it goes slow-motion. You also have a "tequila bomb meter" where when you do good enough or find some paper cranes around the levels you get more of these and there are four different types that are all pretty fun, but repitative over time. The a.i. is not bad, but they mainly are pretty stupid and win sometimes just because of their sheer numbers, which i have never liked. The only really HARD level was the last one as you fought an insane amount of guys, it was interesting. Lastly, the bosses are really easy to defeat and are just guys with a really big health bar, but i recommend doing barrage with an automatic weapon as it takes down their health pretty fast.
Graphics
The graphics in Stranglehold are pretty good, being able to tear a battlefield to pieces and still look good is a feat for sure. but the character models are pretty decent, but i could find a lot of muddy textures for sure, and sometimes it wasnt that good to look at. the thing i dislike the most is the amount of graphic options there are, which is a measly 3. you cant really change much, and even though i dont have to , i imagine it would be pretty tough to run this on your machine if you couldnt run it.
All in all Stranglehold is a decent game, but doesnt really exceed decent, and is overly cliche.
