The recession (young jeezy) Good game... and all games are repetitive so get over it..

Fun, but extremely repetitive Stranglehold is great at first, the environment is highly destructable, the special moves are fun, and the action is frantic. The game is very short, but for me I was glad about that, because it starts to get very old very quickly. The boss fights are a little crazy and unrealistic too. I had no idea Chinese gangster bosses were so hard to kill :P
Worth checking out if you like shooters, action games, or Hong Kong/John Woo cinema. Not a bad game by any means, but it could have been better.
Great action without any suspense or variety The game is set 10 years after the events of "Hard Boiled". Inspector Tequila becomes a pawn in a struggle between two gangs as a HK cop gets shot and Tequilas family kidnapped.
The game offers a lot of action. Everything is destroyable and there are hundret ways to kill your enemies, either by shooter stuff in the environment (like for example shields or boxes which are located above your opponent, or by shooting gasoline tanks etc.). You'll also be drawn into some kind of minigames, e.g. shooting with an machine gun from a helicopter or by fighting five enemies in a slow-time shoot-out. The graphics don't look as good as for example in bioshock, but considering that there's so much more interaction than in other current games it's not that bad.
But there are so many REAL bad aspects about the game as well..
For example the AI of the enemies. It's not that they behave stupid...they don't behave in any way! They either stand on the same spot, no matter if you fire in their direction or not, or they run in front of you like kamikazes.
The game is also very repetetive, so you'll encounter a lot of rooms in which you'll simply be forced to fight 3 up to 5 enemy waves until you can proceed to next room which follows (in 80% of all cases) the same procedure.
The story is (for an action game) rather deep, though it's rather hard to follow (traitors everywhere!'n stuff).
The difficulty may be a little to hard for casual players. Though the game offers a "Casual-Difficulty" players may be challenged a little to much. The first and second level are easy to finish, but the second boss can already cause you a lot of trouble. In fact, many bosses can not just be beaten by simply shooting their brains out, you'll also be forced to fight threw many frustrating passages like doging lasers which cause a detonation etc.
One problem is also that during the fight you'll hardly find out where your enemies actually are. You'll be constantly shot from almost everyhwere and due to the fact that the whole environment is destroyable you'll simply not see them between all the smoke and dirt flying around. Especially on highter difficulties this can be a pain in the ass.
There are also extremely many bugs. It can happen easily that you get stuck in a room because a certain event or cutscene doesn't get triggered (for example after having killed a boss). This can be VERY annoying.
All in all I'd recommend that interested players should wait until the game gets cheaper and Midway offers a patch in order to fix these bugs I've mentioned above.
