Stranglehold looks like an insanely fun game...
Haven't gotten it yet but planning 2...
For those of u who have da game.. wat do u think about it?? is it worth getting?

From the videos I've watched (a while ago) it didn't look like the controls were going to be very good so I lost any interest.

The demo sucks on the PC because you cant change ANY settings , like resolution etc.
And it wont run in widescreen.
Was going to get it on the 360, but it is supposedly very short, and I dont like paying £40 for a game unless its REALLY worth it ( like Halo 3 for example )
The PC version is only £18 , so I may get that. Makes me annoyed how PC games are so much cheaper than 360 games. Luckily my PC will handle them at max detail, so they should look as good as ( if not better ) than their 360 counterparts.

Stranglehold may have a fairly good replay factor as its quite fun , but it may become ultimately too repetetive for repeat sittings.

Halo 3 now, well thats the only game that has got me contemplating buying a 360 Gold membership. Even though I completely object to paying for the privilige to connect my 360 to another persons 360 through a connection I already pay for to play a game that I`ve already paid for.
Online gaming comes `as read` with PC software, no need to pay a fee there ( unless its an MMORPG ) The ability to play online is paid for in the cost of the title, hence your CD-KEY.
Why we have to pay to use this facility on the 360 is beyond me, pity everyone couldnt just not buy the Gold and then Micro$oft would have to reconsider their online policy. Would never happen though , supply and demand I guess, no other way to get your multiplayer fix, so you like it or lump it.

Err, anyway - went into one then!
Basically , Stranglehold is pretty good fun, just dont pay top dollar to play it.

Eh Squerl, you and you're Bioshock. :D. It is insanely fun, gets harder/boring near the end, it is a tad short. I rented it, and got all the fun I needed. Probably not worth a buy though.
