Midway Games today announced the start of the European Stranglehold short film contest. You can start creating your own Stranglehold short films by accessing this website and enter into weekly competitions to win exclusive prizes. The competition will run over eight weeks, with winners selected and voting reset to zero every week. The weekly winners will receive a limited edition game console with a Stranglehold design, while the overall winner will enjoy a luxury trip for two to Hong Kong. In addition, Midway will be giving away games signed by acclaimed action director John Woo to lucky registered users who have participated in the voting. We have to warn you though. The contest is limited to UK, France and Germany residents only, though Europe was a lot bigger last time we checked, and you'll have to be 18 years old.
