Famed Hong Kong action director John Woo's classic films are so ripe for video game translation, it's a wonder nobody's done it before now. But if it was going to take this long, at least it looks like the team at Midway now hard at work on the Unreal Engine 3-based Stranglehold is doing everything it can to get the first game based on a Woo film right. The game marks the triumphant return of Hard-Boiled's tough-as-nails cop inspector Tequila, brought to life for the first time with the voice and face of action star Chow Yun-Fat. To get the straight dope on Stranglehold's development as it nears completion--and to find out more about the new trailer you'll find linked to the right--we went straight to the game's director at Midway, Brian Eddy. Stranglehold starring chow yun fat for the ps3 pc and 360 coming soon http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/stranglehold/news.html?sid=6150328&mode=previews
I heard a realli good game with Chow Yun Fat, its called Stranglehold, gonna be out for the xbox 360. That game actually looks good, lets hope that it will be a good game.
Yeah i also had the Stormriders RPG game for P.C, but was based on the comics rather than the film. Full of Chinese text though.
There are many games which are not based on movies per se, but were adapted from chinese 'literature'. These stories also happened to be depicted in tv series or movies. Popular examples would be Jin Yongs works, or like the stuff about the 3 kingdoms, storm riders as mentioned above and 'chinese paladin'. Purely based on movies though... not too sure... probably not.
