| Author's Rating: |
|
Pros: loads of action, solid gameplay, great sound effects
Cons: short, bland multiplayer, gets repetitive

Tearin' Up Hong Kong on the Xbox360
| Author's Rating: |
|
Pros: John Woo movies meet video gaming in this outrageously violent shoot-em-up
Cons: Gameplay is a 3 trick pony. Forgettable Multiplayer.
Bottom Line:
Max Payne with updated gameplay gets repetitive real quick. Its good but not great. If Stranglehold's Multiplayer was better, I'd have given a 4 star rating.

All style, very little substance
| Author's Rating: |
|
Pros: animations are solid, and the showdowns are intense and very cool.
Cons: The game just lacks polish in some areas (the sliding is odd). Not much fun.
Bottom Line:
This just felt like it should have been better. It was very stylistic, but in the end too short and never really held my interest. Too short to buy
