Stranglehold - Max Payne Meets Hard Boiled

Pros Max Payne + John Woo = awesome
Cons occasionally looks cheap, some framerate issues, only 6 hours long
Recommended it? Yes

John Woo Presents Stranglehold goes into the interesting genre of video-game movies that aren't straight adaptations and is actually a nifty piece of work. Even though it only took me a paltry six hours to run through the game and it offers little replay value- it's an entertaining game and worth... Read full review »

::John Woo's gaming debut is a blast::

Pros Entertaining, jaw-dropping explosions.
Cons Short single player experience, multiplayer is a bust.
Recommended it? Yes

Now I'm not going to sit here and tell you that John Woo is a brilliant filmmaker. I think arguments can be made that he knows how to put together an entertaining action flick albeit it may be missing some serious IQ.

Pros Great graphics, combat, and voice acting.
Cons The main quest line is pretty underwhelming.
Recommended it? Yes

Batman: Arkham Asylum took the gaming world by surprise a few years back – not unlike The Dark Knight himself swooping out of the shadows to devastate a few street thugs – and wound up being hailed as the greatest comic book game of all time. With the title earning such high praise, a... Read full review »

Pros Amazing combat, stealth, story, presentation... everything.
Cons The open world comes with some tradeoffs in pacing.
Recommended it? Yes

Having survived the opening sequence, I stepped out onto a ledge above Arkham City and audibly gasped at what I saw.  My immediate objective was in plain sight below, and it would have been easy enough to go straight there.  But the city spread out in every direction, and the tug of...
