	Midway Games, today announced that Stranglehold™ for the PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system is now shipping to retail outlets in North America. The cinematic action video game featuring duel-wielding, stunt-laden gameplay, incredible environmental destruction and an intense online multiplayer experience is available for the PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system for a U.S. suggested retail price of $59.99. The PS3 collector's edition will feature the game and a full-length version of John Woo's critically acclaimed action film "Hard Boiled" both on the same high-capacity PlayStation 3 Blu-ray disc, for a suggested retail price of $69.99. The Xbox 360 version is currently available for a U.S. suggested retail price of $59.99, and $69.99 for the collector's edition. The PC version is currently available for a U.S. suggested retail price of $49.99. Stranglehold's high-action, intense and cinematic gameplay has been met with critical acclaim from some of the industry's most respected media outlets: "...turns ordinary gunfights into elaborate bob-and-weave and shoot-and-dodge dances of death." - Entertainment Weekly.com / Grade A- "...Midway has effectively translated the feel of a Woo movie, mixing Tequilas superhuman acrobatics with lively, chaotic gunplay." - Associated Press Review / Grade 3 Stars "Woos first game is worthy of his name.- Fort Worth Star-Telegram / Grade 4 Stars out of 5 "There's a real elegance in the way Stranglehold looks when a big firefight kicks off, an alluring character that's authentically John Woo and superbly stylish." - Yahoo! Games / Grade 3 1/2 Stars out of 5 "The game is rife with Woo's filmmaking touches..." - USA Today "...Stepping into Chow's shoes and pulling off Woo's trademark run-and-gun stunts make for a concentrated blast of adrenaline-fueled chaos." - The Washington Post / Grade A- "...it was inevitable that we would get an action game baring John Woo's name and featuring his thumbprint through and through. Stranglehold was long overdue, but well worth the wait." UGO.com / B+ Visit the game site: http://www.strangleholdgame.com

	From what I've heard, the other versions of this game which have already been released got good reviews. -----signature----- I'd rather give birth to a chair than see an MK vs. DC crossover game. Goodbye, it's been fun. I'm leaving for good. Take care, everyone.
