The Xbox LIVE Marketplace updated early this morning, adding the 1.2gb Stranglehold demo to the lineup. Director John Woo teamed up with Midway to continue the story of Inspector Tequila from Woo's 1992 film "Hard Boiled". The single-player demo lets players pump bullets into just about everything in a fully destructable Hong Kong marketplace.
The Xbox LIVE Arcade title Track and Field was also added, letting up to four players (local or via Xbox LIVE) compete in events like the Javelin Throw, 100 meter Dash, and the ever popular Long Jump. It's available now for 400 Microsoft points.
There's also a Madden '08 trailer and more Comic-Con 2007 video posted for your viewing pleasure. Unfortunately, I got my hopes up when the title Puzzle Fighter HD caught my eye. Sadly it only refers to Themes and Gamer Pictures. Maybe next time.
Also, if you were busy yesterday, you may have missed the Eternal Sonata demo. If that's the case, grab that, too. The battle system is a blast.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
