Om regissören John Woo har påverkat mer än titeln på #Stranglehold, en uppföljare på den 15-åriga filmklassikern Hard Boiled, är oklart men action verkar det inte vara brist på. Efter att GameSpy fått testa tre av banorna drog de genast paralleller till den finska #New York-snuten, som i sin tur lånat mycket av actiongreppen från Hong Kong.
It's no secret that John Woo Presents Stranglehold has been a crown jewel in Midway's plans for next-gen since its first E3 trailer two years ago. Four years after Max Payne 2 soaked up so much of the influence of John Woo's heroic bloodshed masterpieces, the famed film director has attached his name to the interactive sequel to his 1992 classic "Hard Boiled." The game's almost finished, and we were lucky enough to get hands-on with three new levels that show off both the best and brightest of the game, and the small features that we hope get a little fine-tuning before its August release.
