Midway put a Stranglehold on John Woo

Hard Boiled action for action gamers

NEWS: 5 February 2007 10:05 GMT by Chris Ford

The summer season will see a host of games from Midway, including Stranglehold, the third-person adventure that continues the action from John Woo’s film Hard Boiled.

The game’s storyline is directed by the famed director and stars the film’s lead, Chow Yun-Fat as Inspector Tequila.

Lead flies as you avenge your family who were taken from you by crime bosses across the city. You’ll have to steel yourself and stop at nothing, relying on honour and desperation to get you through.

Using the Massive D physics engine, Stranglehold gives gamers the chance to experience big two-fisted gun play and stunt pulling on a new level, with environmental interactivity taking things up a notch.

Engage the enemy in "Tequila Time" by targeting and firing in real-time while the world dramatically slows, and enjoy the thrill of running up railings, swinging from chandeliers, and leaping onto moving objects, and all without complicated controls.
