For once, Woo's involvement isn't limited to putting his name on the game's box. His trademarks are stamped all over Stranglehold. Flocks of doves, Slow motion? Check. One way or another, much of the game takes place in slo-mo. Dual pistols? certainly. Tense armed standoffs? Tons of them. The game is special is his way. The graphics is good as much as the sound. Everyone shuld try this game!

Stranglehold [X360]
Although countless video games have been affected by John Woo's classic blood opera Hard-Boiled, it's never received a video game treatment it could call its own. That's no longer the case while Stranglehold doesn't actually carry the Hard-Boiled moniker, it's a sequel to the movie in all but name, right down to the involvement of both the movie's star Chow Yun-Fat, and John Woo himself.
