The Hulk
“You don’t want to see me when I’m angry,” Doctor Bruce Banner says to General Ryker, the villain of the game and the recent summer blockbuster by Ang Lee, as his anger begins to boil deep inside him. Banner, having been the victim of accidental exposure to a tremendous amount of gamma radiation, feels the Beast in the back of his mind as it struggles to break free of Doctor Banner and... Top

Hulk
I've never been much of a comic book fan, but have taken to assimilating comics-based knowledge through close observation of the increasingly successful Hollywood films that they've spawned. I know, for example, that Daredevil looks just like a slightly slack-jawed Ben Affleck, that Mr. Freeze is Austrian and says things like You're not sending ME to the COOLER!, and that The Punisher's favorite...

The Hulk for Xbox
Strengths: Unique graphics, extensive storyline.
Weakness: >Very linear gameplay, basically just kill everything or chase somebody. Menus are annoying and glitchy. Limited game modes."Hit, Kill, Win, Repeat." Puzzles are frustrating.
Like with most games, it is very entertaining at first. You think "WHOA! I just threw that guy off a 50 story building!" and then you think, "Oh, great, I have to do it again." The first level is probably the only level you'll like, if any. It's fun to smash guys with cars and throw barrels at helicopters, and deflect missiles back at tanks. Then, you have to go covert. Now, don't get me wrong, sneaking around killing people is fun, but I think Sam Fisher and Ding Chavez do it better. When you do sneak around, the guards are so incredibly stupid that you could be hiding behind a glass wall, and the only thing they would see is they're own reflection. Then it's back to smashing things and killing people. You chase, chase, chase, kill, kill, kill, which, again, can be fun, but isn't in "The Hulk". I was so sick of this game after a few days, that I threw down my controller, packed up "The Hulk" and went out and bought Ghost Recon. I haven't played "The Hulk" since. Do me a favor; if you're thinking about buying this game, smack yourself in the face, and save up your money for a better fighting game like Buffy: The Vampire Slayer (Not "Chaos Bleeds"! Horrible Game!), Dead or Alive 3, Soul Calibur II, or Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance. Or you could be like me and switch to First Person Shooters, altogether. Whatever your decision, don't choose "The Hulk".
