"We were having so much fun finding new ways to shoot men in the face in slow motion that we entirely forgot to try shooting them in the crotch until our helpful Midway rep suggested it. We can now report that it results in an eye-watering and incredibly long animation of a howling man staggering around clutching the bloody mess that used to be his crown jewels."

I suppose the most damning legacy of John Woo's Hollywood films is that there is more excitement over a game that he has produced than his forthcoming and seemingly cursed The Battle Of Red Cliff. But when that game is based on Woo's best film, where you get to control Chow Yun-Fat wielding two pistols, sliding over tables, down stair rails and diving across floors - that right there is a slice of PURE AWESOME.
