Midway Games announced that Stranglehold, for the Xbox 360, is now shipping to retail outlets nationwide. The game features duel-wielding, stunt-laden gameplay, incredible environmental destruction and a multiplayer experience that brings all the intense action online. Stranglehold is scheduled to be available for PC on September 18 and the PlayStation 3 on September 25. 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.

"Stranglehold marks a significant milestone in Midway's commitment to developing and publishing high-quality, triple-A products," said Steve Allison, chief marketing officer, Midway. "The game not only delivers the intense, cinematic gunplay that acclaimed action director John Woo is known for, but completely redefines what action gaming is all about."

A collaboration with world renowned action film director John Woo's Tiger Hill Entertainment, Stranglehold allows players to experience the excitement of true next-gen action as you take on the role of Inspector Tequila created by John Woo for his influential action film, Hard Boiled starring Chow Yun-Fat. Ensnared by a crime boss with a gripping secret, Inspector Tequila is forced to cross the line from sworn duty to renegade cop. Engage your enemies with intense cinematic gun battles and cause massive environmental damage in real-time or revolutionary slow-motion Tequila Time.
