Stranglehold : Its Tequila Time!

Anyone else played the demo from Xbox marketplace? Its so much fun following the bullet right into a bad guys crotch (or skull...) :lol:
Multiplayer looks awesome too. :)

i reallly enjoyed the demo, and multiplayer will be really interesting, something that i wished Max Payne had but couldnt figure out a good way to do.

easy^^
when it goes slow motion everything is running normal, apart from the dude using slow motion (who appears to be moving 5x faster)

errr, ever seen The One? that explains it

i have no idea if this game has slow motion in it and am now wondering if this post matters

but the point in slow motion is to give you more time to aim. If youre moving 5x faster its even harder to aim.

The only way I can think itd work is that if EVERYONE in the game slows down, but only the person using tequila time would have the mobility (like everyone else is lagged).

Could be annoying or it could be totally awesome, not decided yet.

yea sorry that kinda came over wrong

if i am doing slowmo then obviously everyone is moving slower, but everyone else will see me moving 5x faster, so actually i am moving much faster but everyone else appears to be moving slow to me

wow i confused myself...

doesnt matter anyway cos im wrong, i saw it online (watch the video at the end of the demo) and it didnt look like anyone was moving in slowmo

:(

Was really looking forward to the PC Demo of this then saw the min specs of it :/ Would be cheaper for me to buy a 360 and the game than the upgrades this pc would need.

According to German guys at pcgames.de theyve contacted Midway who have said they wont be the minimum specs so hopefully theyll come down. My new rig will handle it anyway but thats not the point the specs floating around are ridiculous!!

Apparently the "min Specs" arent really the minimum specs.  They are the minimum beta specs.  Still, looks like itll need a pretty beefy rig to run anyway!

My PC is old :P Plays games alright though, doesnt seem to struggle with the graphics turned all the way up in Stalker. My specs are P4 Northwood 3.2ghz, gig of ram, 7800GS agp card so I can see this game not handling my specs to well. Cant justify swapping over to a whole new system for a few games.
