Stranglehold Demo

So I played through this last night. It was all right. I will rent if anything. Not interested enough to buy the game though.

+ Pretty lengthy demo
+ Graphics are better than what the videos Ive seen showed
+ Framerate is solid given the on-screen action, I only had one problem midway through the demo
+ Excellent cinematic story so far
- Camera is a little challenging
- Repetitive gameplay, not much diversity of what to do

I enjoyed the demo. Its definitely better than what I thought it to be, but it definitely still makes me just want to rent this game. Cinematic wise it looks to be killer, given this game is suppose to be of cinematic style. But from what I played, I can just see this game being repetitive in terms of gameplay. I definitely want to play it through just for the cinematics, but getting there might be boring down the road.

Definitely will rent nonetheless, but a doubtful buy unless I can get the PS3 Collectors Edition for dirt cheap.

i concur blaz. i enjoyed it too but i can see the repetitive bug creeping in sooner rather than later with this game.

It felt repetative by the end of the demo. The story wasn't that engrossing for me either.

i liked it better than the eternal sonata demo...

Repetative, but the kind of fun I haven't had since Max Payne 2, back in 2003. So, here's hoping I can find it on ebay shortly after its release for like $30.

Played through it and it was alright. I had fun but as others have said it feels like it could get very repetitive and not worth the $60.

Yeah I don't think I will buy it even though it was fun

[TXPaladin]

strong rental for sure... Mainly for cost factors, now if this drops down in price... I can see picking it up used.

I loved the demo. It reminded me a lot of Max Payne 1 and 2. It's definitely not worth sixty bucks, but I'll be renting it from Gamefly for sure.

i really liked it.

i'll rent it, and if i really like it, i'll buy it.
