I can't believe it's only been 4 weeks since I did my leaving cert exam.Since then I went for a interview for Multimedia in a college near to where i Live.

Since After think about what i could have done in the exam's,I could have done alot better-but i won't know my results until August 13th.

So what have i been up to since My Leaving Cert? Well the answer is nothing much-plying GH2,pes6,SSBB and others.

As for my gamerscore i was at 18005,So i thought that if I'm close to the 20000 I'll go for it-so far it's 19365.

But i have been playing PGR4 for the WCG(world cyber games).

This is my first WCG Regional final-all i can do is my best in it

Here is the WCG 2008 Promotion video :

other than that got a ticket for Metallica with Special Guests Tenacious D in Marlay Park,Dublin and for my b-day i got a dragonforce ticket,who are playing in The Savoy,Cork.

But now I'm listening to CitizenGame podcast which is off the CitizenGame website (a Irish video game site ),And hoping the Ep 1 will be awesome.As the two Founders of CitizenGame headed off the Blizzard Worldwide Invitational,last week.Which sounds really good from what they wrote about it.

When "John Woo Presents Stranglehold" leaps onto video games Stores the week of August 6(for the USA),September 27 (in Europe)and September 6(in Australia) it will be a another achievement for John woo.
The 1992 action movie Hard Boiled is the prequel for Stranglehold.
In John Woo's 1992 action movie Hard Boiled Chow Yun-Fat plays the role of Inspector "Tequila" Yuen, After getting the chance to watch Hard-Boiled I thought the movie was the best movie ever made. The film begins Straight forward but within the first 5 minutes the gun fights start, and they are awesome. However, it develops into an over two hour action kill fest film. It is structured around four major action set pieces: the opening teahouse shootout, the warehouse betrayal in the middle, the dock shootout, and the hospital shootout.
After hearing so much of Stranglehold I checked it out on IGN. The game looked awesome. As well as the Chow Yun-Fat model in the game. Even though it's not next(oh wait the new console are out),I'll call it current-gen graphics what you can do in the game is incredible, For example: The environment will be almost completely destructible, stone blocks, walls, and objects shown shattering under fire. Which is incredible during gameplay.
Also In Stranglehold it features "Tequila Time," a slow-motion system. There are also boosts through the game they are 1.Health,2.Slow-mo shots(which is great when you would like to copy parts of Hard-Boiled, shooting people in the eye or anywhere else),3.boost in your ammo, when you use it, It will got to a very-short cut-scene where you see Chow Yun-Fat(Inspector "Tequila")adding ammo to his weapon and then it's back to playing, when you use it shoots out blasts of bullets, which will help if your in a tight spot,4.I don't know what this is called but I'll call it doves, when you use it will go to a film clip of Tequila spinning around shooting everyone in the room while dove fly past.
With Online play and achievements for the 360,who know what we can expect in the future
With a demo on the way many people will see what John Woo Presents Stranglehold can do.
So all we have to do now is play the waiting game.
