Varietyasiaonline: "High-definition DVDs are enabling amazing new technical feats. But they can also cause semantic headaches.
Midway's special edition PlayStation 3 version of its new game "Stranglehold" is the first to put a vidgame and movie on the same disc. In this case, it's "Hard Boiled," the John Woo-helmed action classic that served as the inspiration for "Stranglehold," which Woo helped to develop.
Combo is only possible on the PS3, since that console uses Sony's Blu-ray disc format, which can hold five times as much data as the standard DVDs used on Microsoft's Xbox 360 and Nintendo's Wii.
Midway got rights to "Hard Boiled" from the Weinstein Co.-owned Genius Products, which is getting a cut of the extra $10 the publisher is charging for the PS3 special edition. In addition, Genius agreed to promote "Stranglehold" in "Hard Boiled" DVDs, while Midway returned the favor in its games".
GF365: "Here are our picks for the ten most underrated third-person shooters that you might not have played before or even known about."
Actually great list TBH I agree with all 10
I hope one day we get some remakes for the following
The saboteur(with a proper remake and quality of life features this game could be great)
Scarface world is yours
Binary domain ( such a great game with great story)
GUN(this needs a remake)
Space marine 40k(such fun time)
Would also like to suggest adding the mercenary series even the 2nd game which is disliked by many is a fun time
I recently finished Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine and found it to be very enjoyable.
The game respected the lore and the gameplay was quite decent.
The color palette was a bit underwhelming (backdrops and setting) and recycled but I think that it deserved better.
Here's hoping for an amazing sequel
GF365: "These are the best games based on movies. Every entry on this list will be a great video game adaptation of popular movies."
Alien isolation...ftw,it is definitely one of my top games,I played it again a few months ago ✌️
Stranglehold, a thrilling action game co-created by the famous Chinese director John Woo, returns to digital distribution on PC today. After years of being lost and unavailable, the game comes back to life thanks to the efforts of GOG.COM and the title’s publisher.
True that...Good thing that I still got the whole "Max Payne" series in my game collection.
Hmm, the thought of playing this through HDMI on my 4K TV through my rig sounds worth another playthrough of this gem. Especially at $10.
I don't have a 4K tv or monitor I'm afraid :S But I'm going to pick up the game anyways ;)
they get ten bucks for every game sold? thats pretty impressive. for a licensing deal. especially since music artists only get like 5 cents for every dollar song sold on itunes
I don't remember.
