Stranglehold
Release Date September 2007
Formats Playstation3, Xbox 360, PC
Players 1 - Online Multiplayer
Experience exhilarating 3rd person next-gen action as you continue the story of John Woo's influential action film, Hard Boiled starring Chow Yun-Fat. Run into danger with both fists full of lead and take down the organized crime bosses who stepped over the line when they took your family. Stop at nothing as you destroy the entire world around you to get them back. You are a desperate man following your own rules; honor thy family; do what's right; fear no man.
The game is set 18 years after the events of Hard Boiled, which picks up with Inspector Tequila (played by Chow Yun-Fat) fighting two separate triads threatening to pull Hong Kong apart. When his daughter gets kidnapped by one of the gangs, Tequila fights his way across Hong Kong to find her. Eventually, he follows the kidnapping trail to Chicago, where he fights against Russian mafia members and gangsters. Finally, he makes a swift return to Hong Kong, and he attempts to put an end to the triads once and for all.
The developers really want to stress that there will be no difference between the PS3, 360 and PC versions of the game. In fact, they're going out of their way to make sure the game is exactly the same regardless of the platform. This should be great, considering that Stranglehold seeks to put a new cinematic spin on environmental destruction.
