Thoroughly disappointing. Not a horrible game, but was expecting so much more. Glitch-y and has overly demanding specs.
First off, the specs and hard drive demands are ridiculously excessive. The gameplay is terribly console-y, meaning simplistic level designs and repetitive objectives that seem really cliched and thoughtless. I think the game was designed for 14 year-olds because there's little that's interesting about the storyline, the level design, the enemies, .etc. The sound effects are really annoying, as well. You hear this pinball-ish PING! after you kill a guy sucking any realism out of the gaming experience.
Also, it's extremely glitchy. A day after playing it, the frame rate stutter became unbearable. This is not due to my system specs. I have a 8800GT and 3GB of RAM and have been playing Bioshock, World in Conflict, the Crysis demo and Company of Heroes, all games far more graphically superior than Stranglehold, and I've been running them all with the highest graphics settings with no frame rate issues whatsoever.
I wish I could get a refund for this stupendous disappointment of a game. It really appears like it was a rushed, crappy port of a 360 game and not a PC game. I won't buying any Midway products in the foreseeable future.
